The House of the Worm is a collection of stories by American writer Gary Myers.

It was published in 1975 by Arkham House in an edition of 4,144 copies and was the author's first book.

The collection is written in a style that closely mimics the works of H. P. Lovecraft and Lord Dunsany, serving as an effective expansion of Lovecraft's Dream Cycle.

[1] Though presented by the publisher as a novel of the Cthulhu Mythos, the book is, in fact, a collection of loosely connected stories.

The first story, "The House of the Worm," was included (as "The Feast in the House of the Worm") in Lin Carter's anthology New Worlds for Old (1971), part of the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series.
