    Marvelous reading of an absolutely mind-bending story. Truly one of Lovecraft's best in my opinion.

    Love this vein of story... The mysteries of sleep... This was a young HP standing on Poe's shoulders, I think he did a serviceable job. I really appreciate hearing these stories interpreted by you after having read them many years ago... Always hear new stuff, stuff that I had missed

    I have always preferred these stories to his Cthulhu mythos, it's a shame that many people don't delve farther into his work

    Not gonna lie, your voice made me half expectant to hear you say "Oh, my brothers" and "Your dear narrator" as if you were Alex DeLarge recounting tales of his youth I like it
