From publisher blurb: DEATH IS STRICTLY OPTIONAL When Herbert West claimed he'd discovered a chemical formula that would restore life to the dead, they called him mad. He spent the rest of his life proving his formula worked... and that was indeed mad. He vanished mysteriously in 1922, but now the facts surrounding those events, as well as the terrifying fruits of his labor, have been discovered and revealed in full. Herbert West, Re-Animator brings the horrifying chaos of Herbert West's experiments in restoring life to your d20 System games with all-new rules. It also collects all the orginal moody tales of mad science and zombies, as penned by the creator of Cthulu and the Dreamlands, Howard Phiilips Lovecraft for inspiration. Although Lovecraft stated the "Herbert West, Re-Animator" stories were among his least favorite of his published works, Herbert West is one of his most famous creations. The character and his nightmarish research and fomula have been featured in movies, comic books, and fiction from other writers.
