@DamnableReverend2 жыл бұрын
of the three "big" Weird tales writers, I honestly think Smith is the best *writer* in terms of prose style. It seems like writing fiction was not something he took as seriously as the other two in some ways, as he really wanted to be a poet, and was into doing other kidns of work that involved manual labour and scuplting, but he always wrote his stories with such decadent language and the kind of morbid and graphic descriptions that Lovecraft wasn't always capable. My first Smith story was "Isle of the Torturers" and I never looked back.

@@maxkronader5225 Given that what we have is, essentially, his initial draft of the story, I'd say it even exceeds that description. I've just begun my nth rereading of this short novel, and even now, after having read it more times than I can remember, I am still finding new layers and subtleties in the tale. I, too, have alwaysheld this one n particularly high regard, and find it as rich, in its own way, as such things as "At the Mountains of Madness" or "The Shadow Out of Time", "The Colour Out of Space", and soon. One of the things which seems to often escape attention -- or at least mention -- is that in this piece Lovecraft blended not only elements of his Dunsanian storiies and the Mythos tales, but his"New England" stories, his proto-science-fiction (positing the dream world as a self-existing other reality with its own physical laws and all that implies, for instance), with his love of the classical Graego-Roman myths, his Poe influence, and even the influence of the darker, more Gothic fairy tales of not only the Grimm brothers, but in general....

It's really neat to see all these people in the comments getting Lovecraft for the first time and exploring the stories. I'd love to have those moments again. I found Lovecraft when I was pretty young, just before I entered my teen years in the early 90s. Within two years I think, I had read 90% or so of what he had written. I come back to a few of the stories every now and then, but by n ow it's all just so engrained in me and my development as a reader, and how I think about horror stories in particular. I owe Lovecraft much; also in helping me discover other writers like Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, Abraham merritt, and Clark Ashton Smith -- not to mention the later writers he so clearly influenced. When I first read Lovecraft I had no idea of his influence or any fo the tropes he established -- it was honestly something completely new and fresh to me. I think it's really different nowadays; it seems like he's a lot more in the purview of pop culture than he was when i was growing up, and that's pretty cool actually.

I'm taking Lovecraft in written order, working my way up to his famous horrors - haven't gotten even to his 1920s work yet but some of this he wrote as a mid-teenager and he was a really good, verbose writer even then. Dagon was very nice, but I found myself quite partial to "Beyond the Wall of Sleep", it's not even that scary, but it's kind of Awe inspiring in a vast mysterious realm where you at least feel the potential of terrors. Then there was "the Green" which was really weird dream logic story, I have trouble remembering the details (I read these a year ago) but it was still fascinating.

I had read some Lovecraft when I was a teenager, but I hadn't touch any of his work for the longest time. Then, for my birthday, a friend of mine gave me the manga version of "At The Mountain Of Madness" (if you haven't check the manga adaptation of Lovecraft by Gou Tanabe, please google his work, he's a terriffic artist and his style really suits adapting Lovecraft). I read it and decided that it was time to finish my education in the works of Lovecraft, and so I bought for my Kindle one of those complete collection and started reading all of Lovecraft's work in the order they were written. It was so fun and interesting seeing this world of his unfold, and becoming more and more complex. You can see the Old Ones appear and being developped. It's great fun if ever you want to try it. I'm glad you mentionned "The Case Of Charles Dexter Ward" in your video, because it is amongst my favorite. I also really like "The Rats In The Walls". I, of course, loved all the classics, but I found myself really appreciating some of his lesser known work. Being a fan of Ancient Egypt, I really loved "Under The Pyramids" (sometimes published under the name "Imprisoned with the Pharaohs"). I also loved "From Beyond", "The Temple", "The Nameless City", "The Outsider", "The Hound", "Pickman's Model", "The Thing On The Doorstep" and "The Shadow Out Of Time". Really, Lovecraft was a great writer, and I wish his work was well known by all who love litterature.

I have a few I consider personal favorites but I think you made a really solid list. Pickman's Model, Dream quest of Unknown Kadath, The Dreams in the Witch House, The Horror at Red Hook are all worth a read too. For comic book readers there is Alan Moore's Providence trilogy which is something I recommend to any fan of Lovecraft, Cthulhu, horror, Alan Moore, cosmic horror. It's a fictional account of a gay writer's journey around New England in 1919 as he looks for inspiration to write the next great American novel. But instead he interacts with the "real-life" counterparts or inspirations for Lovecraft's greatest stories. It is as wild as it sounds and Moore even gives Robert Chambers "King in Yellow" it's moment in the sun as it was a huge inspiration for Lovecraft.

Shadow Over Innsmouth is definitely one of the best Lovecraft. Rats in the Walls is my favorite, though.

Great stories here! I'm definitely a fan of "Whisperer in Darkness" and "Shadow over Innsmouth" especially. As for a Lovecraft cinematic adaptation, I really do think 'Dunwich Horror" and "Shadow over Innsmouth" are probably the two most suitable. One was made into a pretty cool movie by Roger Corman in 1970 and "Innsouth" was sort of unofficiallya dapted as "Dagon" in the 1990s. If I made such a list, it would have to include "The Thing on the Doorstep". Definitely one of my favourtie Lovecraft tales, and the stuff it addds to the "shared universe" is really interesting. More than that though, the story is genuinely unsettling, especally with regard to Asenath and his/her apparent ability and need to body-hop through the generations. She wants to marry this weak man so she can take him and be a man again, like she was before, and astrally travel to Yuggoth to partake in unwholesome rites that somehow involve Shoggoths!

Hey Mike, If you dig Lovecraft, you should definitely cut your teeth through Scary Stories for Young Foxes. The title may deceive you into thinking that it’s a “cute” tale about Foxes….but that will only lead to shock. For a middle grade novel, it is really creepy, dark, intense and gritty. It’s like a mixture of Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe, Lovecraft and The Brother Grimms in one book. It’s begins with a spooky prologue before the stories start and each story is connected with the last story told( basically stories within stories) leading up to a finale. A sequel “The City” also came out just two months ago and man oh man. I think you will love it. Rather than just random scary stories, they are all tied together. If you love the world of Neil Gaiman or Stephen King, you might might like these novels.

The only story I've read so far by Lovecraft is the Call of Cthulu. What I really loved about it is the suspense. It reminded me of Salems Lot in that seeing the stories and what the big bad did is where the horror comes in. Not alot of action from the big bad. The suspense and mystery helps the reader use their imagination to create the most horrifying things. Then you get the cool tentacles and everything at the end.

Remember, although Lovecraft material hasn't been directly translated into film. His influence on film is far-reaching, just look at Alien films. H R Giger the artist. A whole list of directors, De Toro, Carpenter to name a few. Even authors, Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Robert Bloch author of Psycho, Mike Mignola, Brian Lumley, to name a few.
