About this listen

There are books that haunt. The King in Yellow is one of them.

First published in 1895, this cycle of four interlinked stories—The Repairer of Reputations, The Mask, In the Court of the Dragon, and The Yellow Sign—offers a view into a world just a shade off from our own. Beneath the surface of elegant prose and civil order lies something broken, something touched by madness, art, power—and something unspeakably strange.

A book within the book, a play that should never be listened to, threads through each tale, leaving behind not answers, but echoes. With quiet menace and disquieting beauty, Chambers sketches a fictional universe that lingers like a fevered dream.

Not quite horror, not quite science fiction, not quite fantasy—The King in Yellow is a singular work. A whisper from the shadows. An invitation to look too long at the thing you cannot name.
