“The Lost Club” is a supernatural adventure story. Stranded in London during the summer vacation period and caught up in a sudden rainshower, two friends sought shelter in an archway. One of them vaguely remembered having heard that there was a club down this alleyway. From this point events become very strange. A mutual friend appears, who is able to introduce the two into the mysterious club. All the members are well known figures in London society … and they are all there for a bizarre and terrifying ceremony. Each member must open an old book at volume, and whoever turns up the black page will face an unknown and horrifying fate.

Arthur Machen (1863–1947) was a Welsh author and mystic, best known for his influential supernatural, fantasy, and horror fiction. His first major success came in 1894, with the novella The Great God Pan. Machen’s legacy remains formidable; his work has influenced countless other artists, and is seen as setting the stage for—amongst other things—the Cthulhu horrors of H. P. Lovecraft.
