Tales from Arkham Sanitarium

Overview

Expedition register ME-1930-Z25/1743 — cross-index under slug `tales-from-arkham-sanitarium`.

Tales from Arkham Sanitarium cannot be visited like Providence; it is approached through texts, dreams, and disasters that leave coordinates in dispute.

Survivors of Tales from Arkham Sanitarium disagree on weather, century, and compass bearing — agreement on dread is nearly unanimous.

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and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.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.
