Based on the descriptions of Lovecraft's short stories, this a good educated guess to where the haunted fictional seaport town of Innsmouth would have been located. Remember, Innsmouth was not supposed to be based totally on reality but in the imagination of Lovecraft and how he wanted his world to be portrayed and seen.

The town is most featured in the classic horror tale "The Shadow Over Innsmouth". It is also mentioned in other Lovecraft canon works and pastiches from other writers inspired by the world crafted by HPL.

There's a good chance a map to this area can be found by going to Yahoo or Google image search field and typing in the two words: Lovecraft Map .
