H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society Announces New Radio Shows

Wednesday, September 24, 2008

The intrepid H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society (HPLHS) has announced several new shows slated for release next year as part of its "Dark Adventure Radio Theater." A downloadable version of Lovecraft's "The Shadow Out of Time" will be available to order as soon as next week on October 1st. The Shadow Out of Time radio drama is due to appear on CD as well. The growing series puts major pieces by Lovecraft to a 1930s style radio drama performance, and has previously been responsible for productions of At the Mountains of Madness and The Dunwich Horror, both of which received favorable reviews. The HPLHS is also busy working on a film version of "The Whisperer in Darkness," though production updates since the trailer was released are sparse.

Additionally, HPLHS has announced that another radio production of The Shadow Over Innsmouth is currently being made. The addition of both of these new radio dramas adds to the HPLHS library of H.P. Lovecraft's major works on audio. Historically, the Society has put out some nice extras with their CD releases, so expecting the same with CD orders of "The Shadow Out of Time" and "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" is reasonable. It would also be nice to see them turn toward Lovecraft's shorter works once they have adapted all of his longer pieces to radio.
