==Overview==
==Synopsis==
When OSS agent and friend of the Detective Ian Woodhead vanishes while investigating an Arkham seafood vendor, he and newly-promoted Sergeant Matthew Bell are assigned the case. What they uncover is the sole surviving member of an ancient, malevolent race, who is using a piece of arcane technology to re-propagate his species in the modern world. With the aid of their newest recruit, a stray mutt named Robber, the officers track the creature to Dunwich, where they kill it, destroy its laboratory, rescue Agent Woodhead, and retrieve Old Whateley's stash of gold.
==Publication History==
Since its first appearance, The Dunwich Dungeon has also been included in the omnibus The Arkham Detective Collection Volume 1 (2017).
==Trivia==
*Being set as it is in Prohibition-era America (1920-1933 Prohibition in the United States at Wikipedia), the story includes a number of historical inaccuracies, such as featuring operatives from the OSS, which was not established until 1942 Office of Strategic Services at Wikipedia, and references to the Sherman tank, which was not designed until 1940 Sherman tank at Wikipedia.
