About this listen

The hills of Western Massachusetts contain dark and terrible secrets. Strange families keep to themselves and practice rites of ancient and unspeakable black magic. These dreadful and unholy rituals give birth to a monstrosity beyond imagination, a monstrosity that threatens mankind itself! Can a brave handful of intrepid scholars hope to confront the otherwordly destruction of “The Dunwich Horror”?

H.P. Lovecraft's classic tale is dramatized and brought to life in the style of a 1930s radio drama, complete with a large cast of actors, original music, and thrilling sound effects.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Don't head to Dunwich by Night!

A chilling tale that reminds us that, regardless of the kind of terrors the power of evil in human hearts can bring forth, humanity is insignificant in the end.

Dunwich Horror is at the heart of the later Cthulhu Mythos. It's a brilliant tale, and brilliantly narrated by the HP Lovecraft Historical society. I can thoroughly recommend their work for anyone who wishes to enjoy a spine chilling tale.

Hated this one

I immensely enjoyed the Herbert West Reanimator production, but this story didn’t grab me at all.... I tried to listen to it three times but kept falling asleep in it, as it didn’t engage me at all.

It was quite awful at the start where they are talking about the baby Wilbur and how ugly he and his mother are. I know it was meant to convey the idea that he was evil and inhuman, but it just came across like a bunch of gossipy a-holes saying horrible things about the village outcasts.

Also some of the voices were hard to understand. I had to listen at 0.75% speed.
