Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell is a gripping science fiction novella set in the icy isolation of Antarctica. A group of scientists discovers a mysterious alien creature buried in the ice, only to find that it can imitate any living being perfectly. Paranoia and fear grip the team as they realize the alien could be any one of them. With trust crumbling and the stakes rising, the survivors must find a way to stop the shape-shifting entity before it escapes and threatens humanity itself. This classic tale of suspense and psychological horror inspired the famous film The Thing and remains a cornerstone of the sci-fi horror genre.
