Robert Bloch, of Jewish descent, wrote hundreds of short stories and about 20 novels, mostly within the noir, horror, and science fiction genres. At the beginning of his career, he published extensively in so-called pulp magazines like Weird Tales. He also wrote numerous film scripts.

He received the Hugo, Bram Stoker, and World Fantasy Awards. For a time, he was president of the Mystery Writers of America association.[3]

Bloch also produced science fiction fanzines, and even worked for a while in vaudeville.

One of his earliest literary friendships was with his mentor H. P. Lovecraft, with whom he maintained a long correspondence. Bloch wrote a large number of stories belonging to the Cthulhu Mythos. In fact, he invented two books frequently cited in the tales of the Mythos cycle: De Vermis Mysteriis and Cultes des Goules (Cult of the Ghouls). Within Lovecraft's circle, he was known as Bho-Block.
