Description: The grave of H.P. Lovecraft, the renowned American writer of weird and horror fiction, is located in Swan Point Cemetery in Providence, Rhode Island. Lovecraft, who passed away in 1937, is buried in the Phillips family plot, marked by a modest headstone inscribed with his name, birth and death dates, and the epitaph "I AM PROVIDENCE," a phrase taken from his own correspondence that reflects his deep connection to his hometown. The site has become a pilgrimage destination for fans of his work, who often leave small tributes such as pens, coins, and notes, paying homage to the author whose imaginative and influential stories have left an indelible mark on the genre of supernatural fiction.
