  • 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.

I ensure that Watson remains a credible character and that Holmes is portrayed with the complexities we recognize from Doyle's stories.
