For the first time ever, the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has produced an audio recording of all of Lovecraft's stories. These are not dramatizations like our Dark Adventure Radio Theatre - rather, this is an audiobook of the original stories, in all-new, never-before-heard recordings made by the HPLHS' own Andrew Leman and Sean Branney exclusively for this collection. This collection spans his entire career from his earliest surviving works of childhood to stories completed shortly before his death. All tales include original music by HPLHS composer Troy Sterling Nies.

In great cities of the world, humanity congregates, and commerce, culture, and cosmopolitan sophistication blossom in their gardens. But in the shadows that lie beyond the broad boulevards and glare of electric lights, great cities give birth to something else. In these shadows thrives a dim underworld, peopled by nefarious characters brought together from every godforsaken corner of the globe. Can a lone policeman make a stand for decency against the godless denizens of New York’s most loathsome slum, or will he find himself consumed by the filth and depravity of nameless cults?

In The Invisible Man, a scientist theorizes that if a person's refractive index is changed to exactly that of air his body does not absorb or reflect light, then he will not be visible. He successfully carries out this procedure on himself, but cannot become visible again, becoming mentally unstable as a result. In The Time Machine, we follow the Time Traveller to the year 802,701 A.D.. He finds a golden race of small, soft, innocent people. But what is it that lurks in the dark shadows?

Just get everything by H.P. Lovecraft Society
Well, they did it again. I will admit that I never made the connection between the H.P. Lovecraft Society and their incredible game aides for Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu (particularly Masks of Nyarlathotep). These are quality products ... and my word, these audio theater-like pieces are the equivalent. SUPERB acting, a touch of appropriate music and sound effects; it is as if I am at the theater watching a small modest, and yet wonderful performance. I AM HOOKED, as you should be also. Go get everything they have released, and thank me later.

Top tier spooky
A fun performance of the classic cosmic horror story reinvented countless times due to its agelessness. A very compelling and interesting story only made easier to follow thanks to the voice cast and performances. My only issue was there was many instances of someone panicked and describing what they saw which certainly breaks the immersion some, but I do understand the necessity of it. It’s just funny to hear someone say “Wow how queer, you’ve done these very odd changes and adjustments to your home that I will explain in explicit detail”. I suppose it’s a weakness of the style the story was written in. Despite that “flaw” the story was engaging and interesting!

Entertaining and fun!
In search of a spooky short story, I found “The Dunwich Horror”, narrated by H.P. Lovecraft and a full cast on Audible. This story is considered one of the core stories of the “Cithulhu Mythos.” This is a full-scale dramatization, akin to the 1930’s radio drama series “Mercury Theater”.
The fictious town of Dunwich is in an isolated part of Massachusetts. Wilbur Whateley was born under suspicious circumstance, but it is his appearance that brings fear into the villagers. He has albino coloring, and he dons a vile odor. His grandfather, Old Whateley, is known as a sorcerer of witchcraft.
The townsfolk become up in arms when their cattle begin disappearing. The flurry with which the local whippoorwills began singing added to the angst. Furthermore, the Whateley farmhouse is frequently modified.
Wilbur attempts to secure a copy of the “Necronomicon” (the Book of the Dead, a fictional textbook of magic) when the librarian realizes he has wicked intentions. Trouble ensues. What is in the Whateley farmhouse? Why are the cattle missing? What is that noxious smell and tarry resin? And all the Whippoorwill noise! What is going on???
This was a fun audio listen, which includes the commercials which would have aired at the time. It was hilarious to listen to radio ads promoting cigarettes as “aiding in digestion”. I was thoroughly entertained for an hour and 14 minutes!! Oh bonus: According to American folklore, if you hear a whippoorwill sing near your home, it is a sign of an impending death. Others believed it was an omen that bad luck would befall you in the near future…..the mystery of the villager interest in the whippoorwills solved!

A Great Adaptation by the HPLHS
I think this would be a nice way of getting people into Lovecraft. Bit easier to understand for some than how Lovecraft writes.
Love the Radio Drama aspect!
I hope to become a lifetime member myself one day.
