THE UNDEAD OF THE HIMALAYAS is a Cthulhu Mythos tale, told through entries in the journal of Caleb Whateley. Caleb is a distant relative of a rural scholar named Wilbur Whateley.

Because of his special talents, Caleb is recruited to join a trip to Mt. Everest. Over the years, more than 340 people have died trying to climb Mount Everest. People have died there for many reasons, including earthquakes, avalanches, falls, altitude sickness, and glacier collapse. But on this trip, some participants will die for new and incredibly bizarre reasons.

Meanwhile, global warming is making Antarctica and other frigid areas, including Mt. Everest, slowly unfreeze. Among the items found in the mountain’s slush is the thawing, awakening cadaver of a traveler who will not allow his agenda to fail….

This story takes place in the same Lovecraftian future as the McLaughlin/Sheehan story, THE DOOMSDAY THAW, but each can be understood and enjoyed as a unique story.

Together, Mark McLaughlin and Michael Sheehan, Jr. have written many collections of dark fantasy/ Cthulhu Mythos fiction, including HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, NIGHTMARES & TENTACLES, THE WRATH OF NYARLATHOTEP, WEIRD WORSHIP, and more.
