Notes:
Adapted from the 1907 story; the protagonists' genders were changed from male to female.
As Blackwood's works were a great inspiration on H. P. Lovecraft, this adaptation adds various allusions to Lovecraft's works, including "the Old Ones" and a reference to Antarctica which surely points to Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness."
