Robert E. Howard - Horror Stories - The Valley Of The Lost

[@TheSuperDerp]

Robert E. Howard pretty much invented the Weird Western genre with these stories. They're so great!

[@RolandWieffering1]

Absolutely, He will be honored one day as one of the great American writers. At least, that is what I hope...

[@unclealbert3118]

i agree.. .for me , the best. thanks for sharing this ,

[@shananiganspapa]

Love your reading. Have you ever thought of reading David eddings.

[@shinobi-no-bueno]

​@@RolandWieffering1to think that he was so young when he died and had only been writing for such a short period of time is truly amazing to me

[@rtt1961]

Now, this guy is a suitable reader for Two-Gun Bob. Great.

[@glovergayles187]

[@mzeewatk846]

Such a good story. Never came across it before. Thank you.

[@johnbryant8603]

Am curious about these westerns. Thanks so much.

[@RolandWieffering1]

Thanks for listening.

This is Robertson Dean , my favourite narrator ,what a voice, and my favourite two gun Bob story so far. I loved the way it went from Zane Grey to H.P.Lovecraft. This story has a number of elements in common with Lovecrafts The curse of Yig ( the feathered serpent) and The Mound ( the underground world ,the reanimated dead and the mound building Indians ) l wonder which came first. If you haven’t read these stories try them,if you enjoyed this you will surely enjoy them.

[@RolandWieffering1]

I agree completely ...

[@adamfox1669]

David White @- excellent summation! I live within 10mins stroll of 2of the 3 houses Lovecraft lived in (Providence/RI).

[@mzeewatk846]

thank you. love the music. :)

[@Tragon-p8m]

Good narration of one of my favorites, and yet it is a little remembered Howard story. I like the theme of the lost race of Serpent- like men, theme he also visited in his better known story THE SHADOW KINGDOM. I also believe there are rumors of a lost race in First Nations folklore, and some more fringe researchers have spoken of this, but this may fall into the realm of conspiracy and be a can of worms best left unopened. ;-)

[@BenSHammonds]

as an east Texan Im well aware of such feuds, coming from an old southern feuding family myself, what he speaks of is quite true and there are many examples of such.

[@RolandWieffering1]

You're absolutely right, even in the story/history of Billy the Kid it is mentioned.

[@BenSHammonds]

oh yes, and that of John Wesley Hardin@@RolandWieffering1

[@mzeewatk846]

Blavatsky meets Nietzsche, plus action scenes. :)

[@mzeewatk846]

also plus a bit of rider haggard, and a horror story I remember about how the narrator's grandmother's cow-skin sofa turned white over night. :)

[@jamesb.8940]

Unpredictable, and beautifully read.

[@RolandWieffering1]

Thanks, but it is not me who is reading the stories, I found them on KZbin and downloaded them before they were taken down.

[@badas45]

This reminds me of the real life legends from AZ the superstition Mountains

[@RolandWieffering1]

I live in Holland but I have heard about Superstition Mountains. Is that the place where the "Dutchman's Mine" is supposed to be? And lots of people have disappeared?

[@heytheyby]

@@RolandWieffering1, native Arizonan here. Yes, that is the Superstition Mountains you are thinking of. Thanks for posting these excellent old stories!

[@shinobi-no-bueno]

​@@RolandWieffering1mhm, the lost Dutchman's mine, but he was actually a German lol. Is also another pretty interesting thing in the superstition mountains called the hieroglyphic trail

[@jeremykern7806]

Omg this sounds like an epic dose of mushrooms and dmt smoke.

[@RolandWieffering1]

Sounds like something out of Ancient Aliens, whatever he used it must have been a hell of a trip 😜

[@ajaxtelamonian5134]

Yo did john reynolds DDT Saul?

[@RolandWieffering1]

@@ajaxtelamonian5134 I don't know about DDT but Reynolds certainly got killed.

[@mikemarley2389]

Just where in the hell is Leather and why would anyone go there😮?

[@RolandWieffering1]

I have no idea, but it must be somewhere in Hyperborea, Aquitaine or beyond the black river? Or in Nemedië, Stygië, Brythunië, Shem, Zembabwei, Hyrkanië, or towards Khitai. (I still have the old prints where they show a map of the time Conan lived in, very handy.) 😉

[@mikemarley2389]

@@RolandWieffering1 Hmm,I always thought is was somewhere around Nacadoches.

@@BryinWillis-e8g Was that your last Stop? I sometimes note the time that I went to sleep. I would mark it like 25:00 than you can go to the spot immediately. I found "The Hand of Nergal" online, but it might be in German. I am so glad to be multi lingual. Thanks for the reaction and all the best from Holland.

[@feralbluee]

i really don’t know why, but i really like Howard and i really don’t like Lovecraft. i think Howard relies on the character and what happens to him, so he has a personality, while Lovecraft relies on events and weird beings, not the person he puts in the story. This was another great story read by a really good reader who holds your attention throughout. :) 🐈🐾
