  • So much more than a podcast

    I listen to and support many podcasts but this is by far my favorite. Mike Davis is such an invaluable source for all genres of horror in all forms- books, movies, radio dramas, etc. I have been turned on to so many incredible authors and amazing films. I highly recommend supporting Lovecraft eZine as a patron if you can afford it. It is a treasure trove for horror fans and a lovely community to boot.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

"The Blood-Red Sphinx" from Dark Adventure Radio Theatre 😱 (H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society)
Q: What made you decide to go the old time radio route?
We were experimenting with using forms that were common when Lovecraft was writing to adapt his fiction.
Peter Clines, author of GOD'S JUNK DRAWER, 14, THE FOLD, EX-HEROES
Q: What is it about Cosmic Horror, Lovecraftian Horror that appeals to you personally?
I see Cosmic Horror as the ultimate haunted house story, and I'm drawn to tales where characters take a stand against overwhelming odds, even in the face of futility.
Peter Clines, author of GOD'S JUNK DRAWER, 14, THE FOLD, EX-HEROES
Q: Could you tell the audience what it's about?
The book is a love letter to many childhood cartoons, where the main character, years later, decides to return to a mysterious valley where he claims to have experienced fantastical adventures.
THE OCTOBER FILM HAUNT: a conversation with Michael Wehunt
Q: What does success mean to you?
Success means publishing a novel that people want to read and achieving a level that allows him to focus more on writing rather than balancing it with his day job.
