Doris escapes with her life, but her husband is not so lucky, being consumed by some kind of hideous creature (possibly Shub-Niggurath, due to a reference to 'the Black Goat with a Thousand Young' made shortly before the creature's appearance).įarnham dismisses the story as rubbish, but Vetter, who has worked in Crouch End for years, is not so sure, remembering a time previously when similar events happened before. As they continued searching, their surroundings started to change subtly and become infested by what appeared to be monsters and demons. She relates how she and her husband were looking for a potential employer's house in Crouch End, but as they did so, they became lost. Nearly hysterical, Doris' story involves monsters and other supernatural incidents. They are discussing the case of Doris Freeman, a young American woman who came in to report the disappearance of her husband, lawyer Leonard Freeman. On August 19, 1974, two police officers, alcoholic veteran Ted Vetter and newcomer Robert Farnham, are working the night shift in the London neighborhood of Crouch End. It was originally published in the 1980 anthology New Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos, and later included in King's own 1993 collection Nightmares and Dreamscapes. " Crouch End" is a short story written by Stephen King.
