In a time of strife and contention, a figure rises up to draw the masses together. The question is, what are his intentions? This extremely short tale gives us a glimpse into the manifestation of one of Lovecraft’s more notorious creations from his dream world. Tune in Wednesdays at 8pm for the radio broadcast of Wednesday’s Weird Stories and catch
It’s stories like this that make me glad we have better regulations on prescription drugs. Tonight’s episode is a tale of misfortune and bad chance as a weary scholar tries to revive his heath and vitality. Many of our stories have a haunting twist that is typically the fault of the protagonist. Sometimes, however, bad things happen to good people
For many, there is a feeling of peace and calm inside the walls of a church. Our protagonist was hoping for the same feeling and a brief respite after a stressful few days. What he found instead, chilled him to the core and brought him face to face with a familiar foe. Incidental background sounds provided by Rock’d Soul Radio’s
Wednesday’s Weird Stories returns after it’s brief hiatus with one of my favorite Lovecraft tales.

If you know me, you had to see this coming at some point. If the cat guy didn’t do “The Black Cat”, it would just seem, well, weird. This classic tale weaves the story of a man’s descent into madness and murder. Not only does this story demonstrate the many roles a cat can play in our lives, it also

Of the various haunted house tales that I have read and heard, this one really spoke to a lot of what I have seen, heard, and felt in dealing with the spirit realm. The story is chilling, to
I’ll be dipping into the Cthulhu mythos this week as I share a tale of a stranded sailor and the terror of what he finds upon reaching land. Dagon is a fairly widely used character in the mythos, and I feel like it represents a blending point in the stories between what Lovecraft’s original settlers of earth worshiped and what
