Five Go Mad in Egypt — a recurring phenomenon; understanding does not restore sanity. Register ME-1925-A59/4957.

Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1925-A59/4957 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `five-go-mad-in-egypt`.

Five Go Mad in Egypt enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

Lovecraft's own prose — when he is the witness — should be read in the /library before this summary is trusted. Posthumous expansion (Derleth, Smith, Campbell, Wilson, and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.

The Library holds primary text; this dossier holds orientation — never the reverse.
