'''Severn Valley Underground''' (AKA "City of Bricks", "Warrendown Burrows", "Eihort's Tunnels") first appeared in [[Ramsey Campbell]]'s various short stories, with similar tunnels of horror under the UK since appearing in stories by [[Clive Barker]] and [[Stephen King]].

==In the Mythos==

The Severn Valley Underground is a collection of [[Hollow Earth]] locations beneath the UK which do not necessarily include the famous real-life train tunnel under the Severn Valley (though it certainly could include it!); these tunnels need not be connected to each other (but again, they certainly could be!)

===City of Bricks===
[[Y'golonac]]'s '''City of Bricks''', a vast, labyrinthine city of madness in which [[Y'golonac]] and its servants are imprisoned; doorways to the city open into the [[Severn Valley]] via dingy, seedy alleys. ([[Ramsey Campbell]]'s "[[Cold Print (fiction)]]")

===Eihort's Tunnels===
[[Eihort]]'s Tunnels are a labyrinth beneath the [[Severn Valley]] in which the Great Old One and its brood dwell. ([[Ramsey Campbell]]'s "Before the Storm (fiction)]]", "[[The Franklyn Paragraphs (fiction)]]")

===Warrendown Burrows===
Burrows beneath a rural church in Warrendown leading to the [[Green God|Horror Under Warrendown]]. ([[Ramsey Campbell]]'s "[[Horror Under Warrendown (fiction)]]")

===Crouch End Underground Station===
A subway train tunnel where "60 were lost in Underground Horror"; the tunnels are home to a degenerate cannibal family or [[Ghoul]] cult concealed by [[Human Cultist|corrupt local officials]]. ([[Stephen King]], "[[Crouch End (fiction)]]" and its [[Crouch End (2006 short)|short film adaptation]]; see also [[Clive Barker]], "[[Midnight Meat Train (fiction)]]", and the [[Midnight Meat Train (2008 film)|film adaptation]]; ''[[Death Line (1972 film)]]''.)

===Hobbs End Underground Station===
A subway train tunnel beneath a haunted English neighborhood traditionally connected with witchcraft legends; in the 1950s, an "unexploded bomb" was uncovered while digging the Underground tunnels, which was later revealed to be an organic, living spacecraft piloted by [[Mi-Go|Ancient Astronauts]]; in the 1950s, the tunnel would be infested by a web-like fungus, with sightings of "Yeti" creatures in the area. (''[[Quatermass and the Pit (1958 serial)]]'' and ''[[Quatermass and the Pit (1967 film)]]''; ''[[Doctor Who (1963 series)|Doctor Who: "Web of Fear"]]'')
