A meteorite from cosmic space falls to earth on a backwoods Massachusetts farm. The space rock possesses peculiar qualities and mystifies even the brightest university scientists. But it soon becomes clear that this is no ordinary meteor, as its otherworldly influence unleashes a creeping wave of despair, death, and decay into the land and its inhabitants.

at first it sounded like a bad case of radiation poisoning. but like all his stories Lovecraft turned it around and made something horrific with it. the dramatization of the story made it sound more realistic and in a first hand perspective if the tragic incident. I never wish to see my children in that state and I doubt I will know what I would do if my children died or went missing. that added so much more horror to the story.

The writing and acting in this really brings to life the horror of what happens to this family. Excellent performances and the idea of something landing in your yard that proceeds to destroy your family bit by bit, just terrifying.

So much scarier than just reading the book!

An excellent version of a classic HPL story, lovingly performed by a car who clearly knows the story will and loves it.

An excellent radio-like performance!

I love this program. It is perfection itself as a dramatic presentation of one of my favorite Lovecraft stories. My daughter gave it to me as a 59th year birthday present. It contributes to my happiness.
