The Dunwich Horror - Part 2 (of 2)


Listen Later

We return to Dunwich for Part 2 of Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror" Last time, we were introduced to the Whateley family in the isolated village of Dunwich.  Something is going on at their farmhouse which scares all visitors.  Young Wilbur Whateley is horribly deformed, and his mother has disappeared, but strange noises are heard in the farmhouse and something seems to be... growing in there.  Old Man Whateley has just died, but he has left Wilbur with a mission, for which he will need to find a complete copy of the Necronomicon... 
 
This is a horror story written in the 1920s by a disordered mind, so bear in mind the content is not for the faint hearted.
