79: The Dunwich Horror

2026-10-0201:49:11

A reading of The Dunwich Horror, by HP Lovecraft, first published in the April 1929 issue of Weird Tales, and first read here, by me, in October of 2026. Be warned, this is a horror podcast, and this story contains descriptions of witchcraft, demonology, wizardry, extra-dimensional beings, hybrid abominations, several exceedingly poor attempts at capturing archaic Western Massachusetts accents, and, perhaps most troubling of all, flocks of eastern whip-poor-wills and their terrible, piping ca...

2026-04-2951:19

Join Tod and Congressional Candidate Claire as they discuss H.P. Lovecraft's "The Silver Key," first published in the January, 1929 issue of Weird Tales. Please note: while this story is largely fanciful, this is ultimately a horror podcast, and so it may not be suitable for all audiences.
