Mountains of Madness Revealed is an anthology of original horror short stories edited by Darrell Schweitzer. It was first published in hardcover by PS Publishing in September 2019.

Summary

The book collects nineteen short stories by various authors, with an introduction by the editor. All share the setting of the ice-buried Antarctic city of the Elder Things and shoggoths originally described by H. P. Lovecraft in his 1930 Cthulhu Mythos novella At the Mountains of Madness, which in the anthology's premise has been revealed to the modern world as horrible fact through the melting of the Antarctic ice cap by global warming.
