About this listen

H. P. Lovecraft's "The Hound" is the tale of two dark-minded men whose hobby is robbing crypts and graves, collecting "souvenirs" such as headstones and skulls from the decayed corpses for private exhibition in the house they share. Stealing a cursed jade amulet from the skeletal remains of a Dutchman who was himself a legendary graverobbing ghoul, they find themselves pursued back to their "museum" by an unseen hound, whose distant baying comes from the distance. At this point, the story takes ever darker directions....

Needs Peter Cushing or Christopher Lee!

Listening to this creepily atmospheric story, I could actually envision a Hammer film starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. It was wonderful. Lovecraft is a great treasure. I will have to read more.
