About this listen

Welcome to Arkham County. Population: 749,824. But that number’s dropping all of the time....

Lying northeast of Massachusetts, just south of Hell, Arkham County is somewhere you find yourself, not somewhere you ever mean to go. Once you do find it though, you'd better get used to living there, as you may be there for however long you have left to live.

From within the walls of Arkham’s asylum, reclusive writer Randolph Carter tells the story of orphan Violet Flintock, who arrives in Arkham County in search of her own history only to be instantly greeted by the bloody realities of this small town, whose foundations are built from the lore and mythology of HP Lovecraft.

In this Audible Original production, Stanley Tucci (The Devil Wears Prada, Fortitude) leads a cast to introduce you to the horrific, bizarre and just plain weird world of Arkham County. This HP Lovecraft-inspired tale will delight fans and those unfamiliar with his wild, surreal and terrifying horror stories.

loved it

Personally I thought it was a good story. I enjoyed the mix of characters, new and old. Might not suit some H.P Lovecraft purests, but i didn't mind it. The acting was pretty good. And it was free too.

Not terrible

A ok listen. I struggled with the extra noises as I have migraine and am loud noise triggered. So it took me a while to get through this one. Expected Stanley to be narrating the whole thing.

A fun romp through Lovecraft touchstones

Intriguing start and the sound design was incredible. There were some genuinely creepy moments to be had here but the end got a little silly and the plot went nowhere. Worth a listen but in the end a little disappointing.

It was free but pointless

Got this because it was free, and if it wasn’t I’d have returned it. Every actor was good in it, but the story was vague, almost all the dialogue was screaming, and the plot went nowhere. It won’t cost you any money but don’t waste your time.
