About this listen

  • Preface by Matthew Schmitz

The Curse of Yig, a horror tale by H.P. Lovecraft, delves into the folklore and dark superstitions of the American Midwest. The story follows the narrator, an investigator intrigued by tales of a curse surrounding Yig, the snake god of Native American lore. As the narrator delves into the history of this malevolent deity, he encounters unsettling accounts of madness, transformation, and death. Central to the story is the tragic tale of settlers Walker and Audrey Davis, whose fear of snakes and belief in Yig’s curse leads them down a path of terror and doom. Audrey’s dread of the snake god triggers a horrifying series of events that ultimately questions the boundaries between myth and reality.

Lovecraft's vivid descriptions and eerie buildup create a story that lingers in the imagination, leaving listeners with an unsettling glimpse into the darker aspects of human belief and the primal fear of the unknown.
