H.P. Lovecraft 
The Dunwich Horror 

In H.P. Lovecraft’s, 'The Dunwich Horror’, we are told the story of Wilbur Whateley, the son of a deformed albino mother and an unknown father (alluded to in passing by the mad Old Whateley as 'Yog-Sothoth’), and the strange events surrounding his birth and precocious development. Wilbur matures at an abnormal rate, reaching manhood within a decade. All the while, his sorcerer grandfather indoctrinates him into certain dark rituals and the study of witchcraft.
