    I stumbled upon this by chance, and I wanted to say I have been a big fan since the first Hellraiser film, almost 40 years ago. Your voice for Pinhead blew me away when I first heard it in the movie theater. Made me wish I could imitate pinhead's voice but I never was able to. I enjoyed hearing you read this story, though I must admit I wish it could have been read with Pinhead's deep, commanding voice. Glad I got to compliment you before either of us passed away. Take care.

    Cool idea for a channel, Doug! I’m reading through the Library of America volume currently on Lovecraft (my first readings of him, but I definitely was aware of his influence because of a keen interest in the horror genre). I’m sure you hear it a lot, but your take on Pinhead is LEGENDARY, to quote Pinhead. I like that you give your commentary on each of these tales, too!

    This is one of the first Lovecraft tales I ever read, in grade school, and although I did not fully grasp all that was within until well into high school, I , at once, recognized the truth of it in myself. This story gave me my own personal description of myself, " from the inside looking out, from the outside, looking in.". The moment when the narrator steps over the windowsill and sees the reaction of the others to seeing him amongst their gathering is echoed throughout my life, and I thank Howard Philip for encapsulating it in a single story.

To find your reading has not only made me happy as it combines my love of his literary words but your incredible voice and outstanding performance. Please, if I may be so bold to make a request, consider offering your interpretation of The Shadow Over Innsmouth. You would bring so much gravitas to my favorite story.

    I was buzzed and hallucinating hard on orange sunshine back in 73 in my much younger days. I can relate in a way to the outsider himself that night I came home to my wife. I must have looked insane because as soon as I walked in the bedroom and my wife looked at me she reacted much like the people in this story when they laid eyes upon him. Save for the fact she didn't run away. She did scream and asked me why are you looking like that ?! She had the window open. It was spring and we'd just seen the Exorcist a few months before. The curtains were blowing inwards like in that scene in the movie. That sight, plus the acid trip I was on, shocked and horrified me as I entered the room. Creating a look in my expression that freaked her out and me even further. That was a simple small strange event between 2 people in a little Texas town called Duncanville. Yet it's as lasting a memory as the JFK assassination in my mind. It's odd how little things can impact us at times throughout our lives sometimes even more then huge events. Needless to say that youthful marriage didn't last 4 years. And it was to continue using acid for the next 4 to 5 years. Just a little diddy I thought I'd share. Blessings and good luck to all. Great story telling Doug.

    I greatly enjoyed your reading of The Outsider, one of my favorite H.P. Lovecraft stories. I am a huge Lovecraft fan. I am also a Hellraiser fan. Hellraiser 1, Bloodline, and Deader are my favorites of the 8 Hellraiser films. (Did I say 8? I meant 10 of course.) I'm actually nervous commenting to you because The Hellraiser Hell Priest is a big deal to me and such a part of what I love when I think of Horror, but everything I try to say sounds ridiculous. I've been sitting here for a half hour trying to be clever so I am just going to thank you for reading The Outsider and for the years of horrifying fun your Pinhead has given me. ~Denise
