The story

What Is Dagon About?

The premise of Dagon without spoilers, adapted from The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Tales by H. P. Lovecraft.

After a boating accident off the Spanish coast, Paul and his girlfriend Barbara arrive in the crumbling fishing village of Imboca. As night falls, villagers begin to disappear and unsettling, non‑human creatures appear. The entire town turns against Paul, forcing him to run for his life. He soon learns that the residents worship Dagon, a monstrous sea god, and that the deity’s unholy offspring are now loose in the village.
