'''The Trail of Cthulhu''' is a horror novel by [[August Derleth]], long-time friend and correspondent of [[H.P. Lovecraft]]. Although published in 1962, the book is actually a collection of interconnected short stories that were originally published in the 40s and 50s.
As the title suggests, the book is set within the [[Cthulhu Mythos]]. It tells the story of Laban Shrewsbury. Shrewsbury, a professor at Miskatonik University, vanished one night, only to return to campus 10 years later. Upon his return, his research has turned to the arcane. Specifically, he began looking for a common link among all ancient folklores and cults, a ''trail'' as one of his colleagues puts it.
