The Insidious Doom

"The Insidious Doom" is a Lovecraftian short story by American author Frank Forte, first published in his collection Beyond Lovecraft by Asylum Press in September 2020.
==Synopsis==
Paranormal investigator Davian Cooper travels to the virtually-abandoned and slowly decaying town of Thurmond to investigate reports of supernatural activity. Booking a room in the town's sole remaining hotel, he listens to the owner's stories of strange happenings, and experiences several inexplicable occurrences himself.
Cooper is eventually murdered by the innkeeper and his eldritch minion before the man sends his journals to the national press, which results in an influx of visitors and more victims for the town's strange practices.
