Medusa's Coil | Z.B. Bishop & H.P. Lovecraft | Cthulhu Mythos Nightshade Diary Podcast

A powerful and compelling tale of brooding horror that deepens and broadens to the final catastrophe—an unusual and engrossing novellete by the author of "The Curse of Yig".

Medusa's Coil" by Zealia B. Bishop and H. P. Lovecraft is a short story first published in January 1939. A traveler seeking shelter at a decaying plantation hears a tale of forbidden love and supernatural horror. When Denis de Russy brings his mysterious Parisian bride, Marceline, home, dark secrets emerge through a painter's portrait, revealing monstrous truths about the woman's true nature and her serpentine hair that possesses its own sinister life. The story blends Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos with Greek mythology.

Zealia Bishop (1897 - 1968) was an American writer primarily known for her collaborations with H. P. Lovecraft, who extensively revised her work to the point of ghostwriting three major horror stories: "The Curse of Yig" (1929), "Medusa's Coil" (1939), and "The Mound" (1940).
