This is the most famous of the short stories on which H.P. Lovecraft collaborated with fellow Providence writer Clifford Eddy. "The Loved Dead" probably had a bigger impact on Weird Tales magazine than any other story the pulp ever published. Dark, loathsome, and compelling, this first-person tale of necrophilic obsession and night-stalking serial murder sparked widespread outrage and resulted in sales of the magazine being temporarily banned in the state of Indiana as well as several other, smaller local jurisdictions.

John F. Kraft was an 18-year-old college student when he received his draft notice in the spring of 1943. He had been brought up in a well-to-do family, and had lived in Chicago, New York, and London. He went through a year of testing and training, and justifiably expected a position of some privilege. As the demand for infantrymen grew, his training was halted, and he was sent to Alabama to join a unit comprised mostly of more local residents. These were not personalities he had dealt with before. Soon afterward, he found himself aboard a ship heading toward the foxholes of Germany.

This is the same reading of The Whisperer in Darkness that you'll find in Pulp-Lit Productions' 82-hour flagship omnibus collection, The Complete Weird-Fiction Works of H.P. Lovecraft. We've packaged it as an individual file for listeners who just want this story. This deeply unsettling cosmic-horror story blurs the line between and among weird fiction, dark fantasy, and science fiction, and arguably makes better use of its scholarly-but-a-little-thick professorial narrator to evoke subtextual horror than any previous work.

This particularly chilling short story was inspired by a trip that Lovecraft made with Rheinhart Kleiner to the 18th-century Dutch Reformed Church on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn - and to its adjacent graveyard, full of grave markers dating from the mid-1700s. While there, Lovecraft pocketed a piece of one of the grave markers; and it set him to thinking about the possibilities of a story plot in which a vengeful tomb-denizen, resenting a similar act of souvenir-taking, claws its way out of the grave to track down the desecrator.

In later years, this was H.P. Lovecraft's favorite among his own stories, and many of the most serious H.P. Lovecraft fans readily agree that it's his best work. It is one of his most truly cosmic horror stories, trading not at all on supernatural elements, relying for all its power on the idea of real forces and entities that humans are simply not equipped to fully perceive or understand.

This is the same reading of The Call of Cthulhu that you'll find in Pulp-Lit Productions' 82-hour flagship omnibus collection, The Complete Weird-Fiction Works of H.P. Lovecraft.

Lovecraft’s pen after settling into his new home in his old home town of Providence, after his failed attempt to establish himself in New York the previous year.
