charleshelm, that's a fine collection of HPL stuff. I had no idea that Cthulhu Monopoly was even a thing.

I know right?  Ended up buying sets for my kids and kept one for myself...I am sure there are more books luring around here..still trying to get things organized...

Well said Charleshelm - and great collection. Monopoly! Excellent! I wonder if there is a Lovecraftian version of Scrabble....

[charleshelm]

Have not seen the scrabble....and it looks like the Monopoly is sold out. Pretty sure the game was from Entertainment Earth.

Four of the all-time creepiest Lovecraft stories, for me: The Rats in the Walls; The Lurking Fear; The Picture in the House; The Mound.

Zarano -- how'd you like to have that original HPL sketch of Cthulu hanging on the wall?

Cthulhu looks like he's dropping the star-spawn off at the pool in that sketch.

This looks like it's on a tiny canvas--dude, you should totally market a facsimile of this.  You could do it easily with those mad skills.

A neat video-telling of Lovecraft's Dagon.

The HPLHS society has added a new production by Dark Adventure Radio Theatre....

The Lurking Fear!


I can vouch for Dark Adventure's production quality; The Call of Cthulhu they released is amazing. I've listened to it 8 or 10 times, it's so dang good.

From the HPLHS site:

Dark Adventure Radio Theatre: The Lurking Fear brings to life H.P. Lovecraft's tale of a lingering supernatural horror in a 1930s-style radio drama. Dark Adventure Radio Theatre presents the tale with a huge cast of professional actors, exciting sound effects and thrilling original music by Troy Sterling Nies...

A freak storm decimates the population of a remote village in the Catskill Mountains. As the local authorities investigate, they begin to suspect there's more at work than unseasonable weather. Their inquiries lead them to an abandoned mansion from the days when New York was a Dutch colonial territory. Is the old mansion haunted by the victim of a tragic murder? Are strange wild animals roaming the surrounding woods, preying on human victims? Or could there be more terrible forces at work, lurking unseen in the foreboding back woods?

The CD edition will feature the 70-ish minute audio show plus a collection of props to enhance your listening experience. Current plans include:

• A map of upstate New York, featuring the Catskill Mountains, Lefferts Corners and other locations of interest

• A newspaper account of unspeakable tragedy in a rural mountain village

• The gruesome report of the medical examiner

• Arthur Munroe's press credentials

• PRE-ORDER BONUS - if you pre-order before the show starts shipping, you'll also receive a 5th bonus props: a handwritten 18th century letter written by a member of the dread Martense family.

This manga adaptation of the Mountains of Madness came out June 12th here in the US and it looks pretty damn good.

Thanks Jason.

I'll see if I can hunt down a copy today at the comic shop.
