Summary
In this horror story, a Boston narrator explains to a friend why he has avoided Richard Upton Pickman, a painter whose work he admires despite its disturbing subject matter. He describes Pickman as an unusually gifted artist whose images of dread seem to come from an uncanny vision, and he recalls how other acquaintances were repelled by the painter and by works such as Ghoul Feeding. The narrator also hints at a hidden North End studio, Pickman's disappearance, and his own growing fear of places like the subway and cellars.
