A late-night experiment meant to impress a room full of scholars turns humiliating when their ancient guest begins judging the modern world instead. A scientific curiosity becomes a razor-sharp battle of egos, where every proud claim about progress risks another devastating laugh. Some Words With a Mummy by Edgar Allan Poe. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

There have been a few Edgar Allan Poe stories featured on the podcast. Like H. P. Lovecraft, Poe wasn’t originally an author we planned to include. But we pay close attention to your feedback, and many of you have asked for more Lovecraft and more Poe—so we’re happy to deliver.

And speaking of feedback, we always love hearing from you. If there’s a story, author, or type of science fiction you’d like us to feature, send us an email at [email protected] and let us know. Your suggestions help shape the future of The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Let’s go back in time more than 181 years and open the April 1845 publication of The American Review to page 363, Some Words With a Mummy by Edgar Allan Poe…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A breakthrough drug gives two men access to a world where ordinary life appears frozen, turning a quiet seaside afternoon into something almost impossible to comprehend. But once they begin treating time itself like a playground, a dangerous problem emerges that neither of them anticipated. The New Accelerator by H. G. Wells.
