The Shadow Over Innsmouth High

"The Shadow Over Innsmouth High" is a short Cthulhu Mythos story by British author S. O. Green. It is an ironic take on H. P. Lovecraft's The Shadow Over Innsmouth in a contemporary setting.
==Synopsis==
New girl in town Cat meets some very strange characters on her first day at Innsmouth High. Befriended by one girl and bullied by another, she is taken to a remote cave after school where her new friend has prepared her enemy for sacrifice. Determined not to fall foul of their cultish ways, Cat makes her escape, only to discover from her mother that she shares some very exotic blood with the locals.
==Characters==
*Cat, a girl who has recently moved into the small town of Innsmouth.
*Shell, resident school bad girl.
*Sally, a cliquish bully.
*Finn, Shell's partner.
==Publication History==
"The Shadow Over Innsmouth High" was published in the thematic anthology It Calls From the Sea in 2020.
==Trivia==
*Unusually for a story involving the denizens of Innsmouth, "The Shadow Over Innsmouth High" suggests a definite hierarchy amongst the unchanged hybrids of the community.
*All of the character names have some association with the ocean: Cat is nicknamed "Catfish" by Shell, with Sally's full name being Salmon.
