Cold Print is a collection of Lovecraftian horror stories by Ramsey Campbell, first published in 1985 by Scream/Press, reprinted in 1987 by Tor Books, and reissued in an expanded edition in 1993 by Headline.
The original release of Cold Print contains all but three of the stories from Campbell's first collection, The Inhabitant of the Lake and Less Welcome Tenants. Also included are two stories, which first appeared in anthologies edited by August Derleth, as well as later material written explicitly in the Lovecraft vein. "Among the pictures are these:" is not a narrative story but a description of numerous sketches made by the author.
The book is dedicated to Fritz Leiber and Robert Bloch, "who were there before me, and did it better", and contains two introductory pieces by the author, "Lovecraft: An Introduction" and "Chasing the Unknown".
The book contains the following stories:
"The Church in High Street"
"The Room in the Castle"
"The Horror from the Bridge"
"The Insects from Shaggai"
"The Render of the Veils"
