Playing with dark, forbidden things has never boded well for anyone, no matter the intent or purpose. One has to wonder if it will work out for the narrator of this story from author Alisha Galvan..."The Vessel" is a part of her collection, "A Path Through the Forest." If you enjoyed this story, check out her book and listen to her discuss the story and her thoughts on writing and horror in her author interview available now as a bonus episode!

The chilling tale of love, death, hauntings, and the secrets of the Ockram family concludes in this episode. Vile old patriarch Sir Hugh Ockram's secret is finally revealed. But, what does it hold in store for son and his betrothed?

Lovecraft, well, loved writing about secrets of the old world that modern (for his day) gentlemenly types just couldn't stay away from...even if it was for their own good.

A lot of Greek gods and mythology in this story about a mysterious swamp and local beliefs tread on by yet another wannabe aristrocrat in the early 20th century.

Music is powerful in many ways. It can have psychological, emotional, and even physical effects. Apparently, in some cases, even supernatural...

The grand finale: Cthulhu himself makes his appearance and the final findings of our narrator are revealed.

The description of R'lyeh itself does a great job of making you "see" non-euclidean ruins and how a place somehow outside of space and time would feel like trying to traverse on our physical plane.

Enjoy the finale of the "The Call of Cthulhu"

The continuation of one of the most classic works of horror.
