About This Novel

Innsmouth was a small settlement founded on the port in 1643. Shipbuilding was originally its main export industry, and fishing was also developed. After the War of 1812, the town declined. However, due to the trading between the merchant ship captains who had great power in the area and the deep divers, a half-human and half-frog underwater race, by offering human sacrifices in exchange for gold and fish catches, the locals eventually began to mix with the deep divers who regularly climbed ashore. So in the end, most of the local people have the characteristics of monsters. Even if they look like ordinary people, these characteristics will begin to appear at a certain age. In the end, all mixed-race locals will be transformed into deep divers and live in the sea as long as they do not die before the transformation is completed. That's why we don't see old people in Innsmouth. The residents of Innsmouth are deeply involved in the weird atmosphere such as Dagon belief. Due to these phenomena, Innsmouth has become a place that people from neighboring areas avoid. The only means of transportation are buses run by locals. Finally, on July 16, 1927, a curious tourist who went to Innsmouth was attacked by the Innsmouth people because he was investigating the past of Innsmouth there. After he fled the local area in panic, the local anomalies attracted the attention of the government. After extensive investigations, the people of Innsmouth were arrested collectively, and the local area became a dead city.
