It's that time of year once again. And the Nightmare Fuel Podcast has a double-header for this year's reading.

First up is a reading of H.P. Lovecraft's The Moon Bog. This tale of a cursed Irish peat bog is sure to shake your shamrocks off!

It's then followed by one of Lovecraft's poems, Halloween in a Suburb.

Episode 31--The Cthulhu Mythos (Part One)


Good Evening, my lovely deviants!

Your faithful high priest of all things icky, and Cthulhu, is back! This week, I preach the vile gospel of our Lord Cthulhu. I come to you with tidings of doom, gloom, and eldritch nightmares as I discuss the Cthulhu Mythos.

This week, I discuss four stories from the legendary Mythos.

They are...

The Nameless City
The Festival
The Dunwich Horror
The Call of CTHULHU!

By no means is this an exhaustive study of Lovecraft. These episodes are meant to serve as a starting point for analysis, and study, of the world of H.P. Lovecraft, and his creations.

As always, you can listen to the eldritch horror here. Or, you can download the show from archive.org

This Week's FROM THE VAULTS
The forgotten classic RITUALS (A.K.A The Creeper) from 1977. This is a public domain film that is soon to be released on DVD (later this month, actually). It stars the great Hal Holbrook, who squares off against the elements, and an unseen killer. 



Also...One of the sickest, and possibly coolest, toys of the 1960's...the SHRUNKEN HEAD KIT!

Episode 30--H.P. Lovecraft: The Man From Providence


Good eeeevening, my eldritch darlings.

This week, I offer up an eerie tale of Providence, alien gods, and the man who changed the face of horror forever.

H.P. Lovecraft: Part One (Biography)

Originally, this was intended to be part one of a series of episode about the Cthulhu Mythos. But, since there was such a wealth of biographical material, this episode turned into an impromptu lecture about someone whom I've dubbed, The Man From Providence. The aforementioned Cthulhu Mythos episodes will star infesting the airwaves next week.

As always, you can listen to the blue-blooded goodness here, or download from archive.org
