'''Arkham House''' ist ein [[USA|US-amerikanischer]] [[Verlag]], der sich auf die Herausgabe von [[Phantastik|phantastischer Literatur]] spezialisiert hat.

== Geschichte ==
Der Verlag wurde [[1939]] von [[August Derleth]] und [[Donald Wandrei]] gegründet, um zunächst nur Werke des bewunderten Freundes [[H. P. Lovecraft]] zu veröffentlichen. Sie befürchteten, dass dessen Erzählungen, die lediglich in [[Pulp-Magazin|Pulp-Magazinen]] wie [[Weird Tales]] erschienen, ansonsten dem Bewusstsein der Leser entschwinden würden.
Der Name des Verlages leitet sich von der fiktiven Stadt [[Arkham]] ab, die Schauplatz mehrerer Erzählungen von Lovecraft ist.
Hier erschienen zum ersten Mal gebundene Ausgaben mit Lovecrafts gesammelten Werken. Der erste im Verlag erschienene Band war die heute sehr gesuchte Sammlung ''[[The Outsider and Others]]''. Obwohl sich das Buch zunächst nur schleppend verkaufte, hatten Derleth, Wandrei und ihr Verlag einen bedeutenden Anteil am späteren Erfolg von Lovecraft.

Nach dem ersten Band erschienen Erzählungen von Derleth (''Someone in the Dark'', 1941), danach kam [[Clark Ashton Smith]] (''Out of Space and Time'', 1942) hinzu. In bibliophilen und in kleinen Stückzahlen gefertigten Ausgaben wurden etwa die Werke von [[Robert Bloch (Autor)|Robert Bloch]], [[Fritz Leiber]], [[Ray Bradbury]], [[Ramsey Campbell]], [[Basil Copper]], [[Frank Belknap Long]], [[Henry S. Whitehead]] und [[Robert E. Howard]], aber auch Klassiker wie [[Sheridan le Fanu]] publiziert. Der Verlag wurde 1983 mit dem Convention Award des [[World Fantasy Award]]s ausgezeichnet.
