Hypnogoria

In the final part of our excavations of The Mound, we explore the gods of the Cthulhu Mythos, reveal their family tree, and trace their effects on the civilisation of K'n-yan.

In a little bonus episode in between our explorations of the Cthulhu Mythos, we have a reading of a short piece by HP Lovecraft. A strange little tale, almost a prose poem, in which we first meet the Crawling Chaos, Nyarlathotep!

In this episode we continue our exploration of The Mound by HP Lovecraft and Zealia Bishop. Firstly we uncover the history and evolution of what is now called the Cthulhu Mythos - how it emerged in Lovecraft's writings and how it was developed by other authors. And then we explore the links The Mound has to other works in his canon, investigating the strange lost lands mentioned, the secret history of the earth, and cataloguing the eldritch races encountered in the tale.

In this episode Mr Jim Moon delves into the background of the classic weird tale The Mound. We discover how HP Lovecraft came to write it for Zealia Bishop, and dig up the local folklore and old American history that inspired it. We also explore the strange theories of hollow earths and legends of lost races, and finally discuss its literary forebears from the likes of Poe and Jules Verne.

In this podcast, we're returning to the little town Hawkins where once more weird events are unfolding. Is this a series too far for the Duffer Brothers, or just another chapter of a never-ending story? Such are questions answered by Mr Jim Moon in an in-depth but spoiler-free discussion of the show!

In which our narrator goes out to the mound to excavate and investigate, to uncover the truth of Zamacona's tale... And what became of him...

In which our hero Zamacona attempts to escape the immortal and amoral world of K'n-yan and return once the freedom and sanity of the upper earth...

In which we learn more of life in the subterranean blue-litten realm of K'n-yan, hear about the mysteries of red-litten Yoth, a deeper darker elder realm, and the black horrors that dwell in the abyss of N'kai...

In which we learn of the strange and ancient realm of K'n-yan, which lies deep beneath the earth, where weird gods such as Tulu and Yig are worshipped by the advanced but decadent inhabitants.

In the first of a few little mini-casts sprinkled on the feed while The Mound runs, Mr Jim takes a spoiler-free look at the latest chapter of the Monsterverse, Godzilla King of the Monsters
