This is one of HP lovecraft's greatest horror stories, IMO, and this is an excellent dramatization. Even so, there's nothing like the original Lovecraft writing so you might want to read or listen on audible to the original story prior to listing to this dramatization.

dramatization of one of lovecraft's greatest stories

In these spooky time of Halloween, or just a fine spooky day. I would recommend the provocatively produced; mind altering story the HPLS prepared for you with this gruesome tale.

A Fantastic Story as always.

Love the folks that do these theatrical versions of lovecrafts stories. Worth the listen and my favorite version of the story.

Splendid Narration

This dramatization mostly follows the original story. It has a story telling frame not in the original. The HPLHS has produced another fine presentation. This is both entertaining and an interpretation of Lovecraft 's work.

Great Stuff

Another Dark Adventure Radio success

Really awesome adaptation. Keeps a lot of the original prose, sometimes to its detriment but given that it is the HPL Historical Society it is understandable if not even admirable.

Faithful to a fault

I've listened to so many of these HPLHS Dark adventure, audio dramas. This one is my favorite. I can't even count how many times I've listen to it. I can't recommend these enough. I highly recommend you find all the ones you can and buy them all. The vast majority of them are only like an hour and 15 minutes, but it's so well done. Especially if you have any sort of a commute back-and-forth to work or something. This is a fantastic way to spend it.

My favorite one!

This was another fabulous episode of the Dark Adventure Radio Theater. A young man learns the horrors of a town, not believing the warnings and stories he’s been told. Fantastic cast and excellent production. If you enjoyed this, be sure to pick up more episodes to delight and entertain you.
