Mausoleum

[squirmelia]

'We were sitting on a dilapidated seventeenth-century tomb in the late afternoon at the old burying ground in Arkham and speculating about the unnameable.'

Yes, his Arkham's in Massachusetts. There's no real town called that, Lovecraft just made it up, but other writers have used it too. Also, it's quite probably why you get things like Arkham Asylum in Batman.
