We invite you to listen to the most famous of Howard Phillips Lovecraft's stories "The Call of Cthulhu". The story is a horror classic, written in 1926 and published in the pulp magazine Weird Tales in 1928. It is also the only Lovecraft story in which the iconic Great Old One lying underwater appears in person.

For many of us, this story was the first contact with the prose of H.P. Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos. We hope that those who will have the opportunity to listen to it, as we did years ago, will also be drawn into the fantastic world of eldritch horror.
