The King in Yellow is a collection of weird and eerie short stories written by Robert W. Chambers. The stories are linked by the mysterious play ""The King in Yellow,"" which is said to drive its readers insane. Blending supernatural horror with psychological terror, Chambers' work explores themes of madness, forbidden knowledge, and the thin line between reality and delusion. With its atmosphere of dread and its profound influence on later writers like H.P. Lovecraft, the book is a cornerstone of early weird fiction.
