Love the Lurking Fear! One of my favorites. That house scene, where his friends disappeared, scared the crap out of me!

That cover is mesmerizing. And this does sound fun! I like stories with the Unknown as the main bad guy sometimes. Gives a good amount of room for imagination sometimes it seems!

It is a fun story. It has a great ending where the horror is revealed!

The BBC adaptations of Lovecraft stories are really good. You also have a great voice for narration!

I recorded that thrill a minute video today. Your question was the last one. I hope you manage to stay awake through it.

It was one of my favorite stories back when I was a young reader. I didn’t know about the serialized history. I had the old Ballantine editions with the faces.

WoW. That cover You are showing on that pic at the beginning is way different than My Cover of that Book. Way different. I remember the 1st time I read this....when his 2 associates got killed...I was like.. why are You not leaving . LoL. This is not a bad story, but far from H.P.Lovecraft best. Yet it's one of His most, or widely know stories. 🤷‍♂️ Never figured out why. Live Stream. Yes.👍😁👍 Great Review, and Video. 👍😁👍

I guess he was so into horror he refused to leave! This story had some WTF moments for sure but I like it. I don’t think Lovecraft himself thought much of it.

I just read this tonight. I read Lovecraft for the first time today and I’m not sure what I think yet. I read Dagon and The Rat in the Walls earlier today and I just wrapped up this story.

This sounds really good! I'm sure I've already mentioned this, I have a tendency to repeat myself, but I'm planning to read Shadow Over Innsmouth this month!

It was the zippiest magazine in America! At least according to the cover.

Will you do a video about pulp fiction when you get the chance. I feel you're the best person to clarify it because I don't always think people are referring to the same thing when they say pulp fiction. I always think of the prose of Lovecraft when I think of pulp but I think there is more to it. Great video as well 👍👍

Great discussion. I read this one back in July. Unfortunately, it didn't make it far in my monthly book battle reading wrap up.

So I just finished this without listening to an audio recording to see if i can grasp what Mr. Lovecraft wrote and i think I got it. And yes, it was a spooky, enertaining read, but I have one question: when you say "pulpy," what do you mean "pulpy?" Please forgive my ignorance as i know that it comes from pulp magazines, but what does that usually imply on the works? Like is it suppose to imply cheap, exploitive fiction for low-brow audiences or what?

”Prose people make fun of.” Yeah sure, Lovecraft is the only horror writer that Harold Bloom gave thumbs up to. But he didn’t like Poe; ”he’s writing is awful”. Not that Blooms opinions were law, but he understood literatue a little more than most of us …
