From the Father of Mannequins, A Day of Ochre, Ascending is a tale that will toss you in a dumpster and leave you for dead. In this apocalyptic nightmare inspired by Robert W. Chambers' The King in Yellow, a man's ordinary stroll with his dog turns into a nightmare. Each step plunges Walter and Archie deeper into a world of whispered doom. Will they escape, or will the nightmare consume them?
