This play uses a fantastically realized type of eldritch horror rarely seen on the stage, and I love it to bits. Seeing the characters, atmosphere, and lore around the strange powers they're dealing with all descend into madness over the course of the play is impactful, interesting, and constantly entertaining all at once. Masterfully executed, The King In Yellow is a must-read for any horror fans, and a play I hope to one day see in person.
