“The Tomb” by H. P. Lovecraft is a gothic short story about a young man named Jervas Dudley, who becomes obsessed with a mysterious, sealed family crypt belonging to the long-dead Hyde family. Drawn by an eerie fascination, he dreams of entering the tomb—and eventually believes he has—but as the tale unfolds, the line between imagination and reality blurs. In classic Lovecraftian fashion, the story explores themes of madness, ancestral memory, and the lure of the supernatural.
