Absolutely agree

All those Easter eggs throughout the story were a treat for us, Lovecraft nerds. 🐙

[@donaldmccleary9015]

Completely agree! There are lots of Easter eggs in this one. I enjoyed it immensely.

The world may be on fire, but at least there is still Horrorbabble.

[@glennTinylionUK]

Keep the mythos tales coming. There's so many brilliant lovecraftian stories that have no audio version.

[@HorrorBabble]

As long as we can be reasonably sure they're in the public domain, we'll tackle 'em.

[@kgb333m3]

Please consider doing lovecrafts “the very old folk” it gets no love even tho it’s heavy on the mythology..If anyone can do it justice it’s you

[@Eris123451]

@@kgb333m3 Good call.

[@glennTinylionUK]

@@HorrorBabble totally understand why that is the case. As a side comment here I have always been amazed and saddened that the wonderful work by Wilum Pugmire has not been made available as audio. He was a special author in my opinion and his passing not too long ago was a real loss. I have even thought about looking into crowd funding to try and get some of his work released as audio. There are a few short stories out there in audio and then the wonderful Morgan Scorpion, who I believe was his friend, has some readings. Anyway I know this is a bit off topic, I just wondered what you thought of his work

[@aaronweaver9751]

You fool, Warren has been taken by the Haunter! Kudos.

[@samieltheinfamous]

My community tab unlocked recently, and though I've a small subscriber base, I posted the link to your channel. Most of the time I cannot contribute monetarily, and so I hope this helps to show my appreciation for your work in some small way.

[@HorrorBabble]

Thanks, Samiel!

[@jeffashley5512]

I'm here Ian!!! In appreciation of the Cthulhu Mythos I have my Peterson pipe full of Miskatonic Mixture with some From Beyond up next. 💀

[@nathanielgrey4091]

I am loving these Mythos Tales stories

[@Tazirai]

Same.

[@timothygenewong]

This was an especially good tale. Self-contained but lots of references to other mythos stories.

[@slewis9602]

Two in one day? I'm going to get spoiled. Thank you HB!

To be fair, one was a reupload ... but thanks!

[@dexterisabo3137]

Ian, you have no idea how happy I get when I see that a new story has dropped. It legit makes my day to know that I have more Horrorbabble to look forward to when I get home.

[@ViktoriousDead]

Your narration, if possible, seems like it gets better every time! Keep it up!

[@gregoryturner9530]

Perfect way to spend my day off!

[@awarningtothecuriouswerewolves]

Don't forget the beer! Cheers Warren, lover of the Amber of the Gods...the Dark Gods!

Excellent series worth reading or listening to more than a few times

[@MediaAttorney]

Fantastic! Great addition to the mythos.

[@williamfawkes8379]

Well, I'll have to bookmark this one, as a reminder to visit, it had that special quality that makes me float along with the story. And of course, who doesn't enjoy a nice walk through the cemetery?

[@Eris123451]

Warren ?

[@rosiemcnaughton9933]

Love the picture that goes with the story. Thank you!

[@danbreeden8738]

The best horror story collection of all time

[@willam1992]

I occasionally go walking about in grave yards looking at the epitaphs. Though at night or dusk I don't go near them. So any cemetery horror story is particularly enjoyed

[@Bbergster]

He did a really good story about these spirits stuck at the graveyard 🪦! Maybe someone could help me out….? I’ve been wondering about this particular yarn 🧶 but can’t remember the name or author. 🖤❤️‍🔥

[@Jose-oq6kj]

Thank you for more, as always, it's a pleasure to hear these stories I wouldn't otherwise encounter.

[@badraven_indieauthor]

When Ian started to read and the story told of a remote and secluded area, and in addition to that, an old cemetery, I was sold! I was quickly submerged in the narrative. It is an amazing story simple but yet, intriguing. Ian's impressive voice and master of the English language makes this experience second to none. It was masterfully executed. I'm very grateful for this treat. Happy Halloween!

[@jimjohhnston9992]

Top Notch ! Thank you for creating and posting

[@slewis9602]

This is a brilliantly executed work, HB, wonderfully done!

[@thisisdavid2]

this series is fabulous please keep it up, I did not know about this one and I am so digging it lol ;)

[@thejudgmentalcat]

I have read this before! The horror movie snark reminded me. This was very atmospheric 👍

[@phoenixjames6126]

A splendidly horrible tale. Especially with the references to Carter and Lovecraft himself. Splendid.

[@BenVhekith]

Spooky story. I love it. is best. Happy I subbed :D

[@markportwood4045]

I’m just over half way through this wonderfully atmospheric tale on NYE. I sometimes save special things to enjoy later, and I am so much. Thank you Ian and Jennifer for all you do. Best wishes and a Very Happy New Year to you both.

[@DrBrothBaist]

Keep these going I love the expanded mythos

[@blixten2928]

Wonderful!! Fully appreciated. And never ever drop that haunting, gorgeous opening (and closing) piano music!

[@snapdragon8123]

[@rkzenrage]

Thank you for this distraction during a pain-filled night, it’s very helpful.

[@derekhoferichter1802]

Just mazing you could do a whole channel just on Lovecraftian stories i often play them right before bed such a great way to chill at night pls keep them coming

[@jeffwarren6906]

Perfect voice for narration and wonderful artwork ! I can't wait to hear more ..

[@Ramiromasters]

Great interpretation (as is the norm around here) the story, while entertaining, it was all over the place... Besides the cemetery and ghost, it had a secret passage that lead to the sea for some reason, it had witchcraft lore, scary movie production, scary tales books, a whole cthulhu chant and gigantic faces with shadows! JJ Abrams would make a movie out this one! 😆

[@studentjohn]

I love how there's enough background stuff for it to definitely be mythos, but it still stand on its own.

[@paulthompson52]

Great story!!

[@donaldmccleary9015]

This is a very cool story. I like how it threads into other stories of the mythos. I really enjoy this one. The graphic for this one is really cool, as are the graphics for all your narrations. Thanks for bringing us this gem and for your excellent narration. Your channel has brought me so many new stories since i started listening last December. 30:33 Great job reading that!

[@MukesBoy]

I'm partly annoyed and covetous of the Lovecraft material because I've been a reader of his material for the last 32 years; ever since I found a copy of the necronomicon at a waldenbooks when I was 15. I'm like why the hell now? Same thing with my fascination with zombies going back to my fondest memories of the early to mid 80s. But I'm happy that Horrorbabble does a damn good read of everything I love in Gothic horror literature.

I'm rewriting this comment because I managed to make 3 typos in two sentences. 😵 Okay... I really enjoyed this story and I loved the references to H.P. Lovecraft, one of my most favorite of his stories is Haunter of the Dark, so when I saw the title of this story I knew I was going to enjoy it. 💕 Thanks!

With the implication that the Cthulhu mythos stories are all fictionalized accounts of events that happened, I wonder how Harrod’s story was recorded considering his fate.

[@johannageisel5390]

Well, I guess he met Warren.

[@frankmcgovern5445]

I feel like J. Vernon Shea watched an old-timey show in which the host dropped sardonic MST3K-style quips on old horror movies that J. Vernon was partial. In response, he was like, “Guess who’s about to get Lovecrafted for disrespecting my Bela Lugosi movie… YOU!” And this story is the product of that animosity.

[@praywithpio6028]

Harrod was a proto-Joel. I wonder whether this story was an inspiration for MST3K and similar television shows.

[@lauratanner8475]

Get a little closer with Harid extra dry!

[@Paul_305]

Another installment. Tonight: a double buffalo trace and a molina olvewood apple filled with maltese falcon.

[@dexterisabo3137]

It's all fun and games until you get chewed up by cosmic horror 😒 On a different note, I love how these author give HP his props. I love how he went from being a failure to being buried in flower full of tentacles

[@potatojoe370]

Harold, don't you know what happened to Warren? Steps going down under a grave is a no no.

[@Amchnfrmkngcows]

What was his b-movie roasting show called, Mythos Science Theater 3000?

[@blakmajk369]

🐐

[@michaelsmyth3935]

Again, great presentation. Not so certain that name dropping H.P. gives it the provenance of a mythos tale. Seems more the standard witch and ghost story.

[@davidwhite7294]

I,m inclined to agree. I thought it was,nt that well written and found it annoying how many times the main character’s name was repeated….l still enjoyed it tho being a bit of a HB geek.
