The Ancient Track

"The Ancient Track" is a Cthulhu Mythos poem by the late American horror author Howard Phillips Lovecraft. 
== Synopsis ==
The two fairly lengthy stanzas describe the narrator's journey along a sinister and seemingly-abandoned pathway. At one point, it is mentioned that there is a sign posted which claims "Two miles to Dunwich", but whether the track leads to or from there, or merely passes it by, is unclear. 
==Publication History==
"The Ancient Track" was first published in the March 1930 edition of pulp magazine Weird Tales. It has since been reprinted a multitude of times, and has even been translated into French.
== Trivia ==
* The poem lends its name to a magazine dedicated to Lovecraftian horror.
