Children of Horror,
Norman Bates still has murderous Mother trouble. Astronauts exposed to a lunar flower become werewolves. And…a college student conjures up a vampire from the stars, as we take another terrifying turn on the Bloch—Robert Bloch. His latest star gazer will suck the life out of you.
“The Shambler from the Stars" was published in September 1935 for Weird Tales. It’s a Cthulhu Mythos tale that first introduced the forbidden tome “De Vermis Mysteriis” -- (Mysteries of the Worm). H.P. Lovecraft in 1935, wrote its sequel "The Haunter of the Dark" and dedicated it to Bloch. In 1950, Robert wrote the sequel to that tale--"The Shadow from the Steeple".
“The Shambler from the Stars” is narrated by a nameless college student who hopes to make a living as a famous writer of weird fiction. Rejection after rejection by magazine editors, causes the desperate narrator to search for forbidden knowledge--true practitioners of the occult. Sending letters of correspondence to free thinkers, and academics from all over the country brings him into the circle of a “mystic dreamer” from Providence, New England. Together they search and find the mysterious occult book, “De Vermis Mysteriis”
Will the narrator and the “mystic dreamer” unlock the forbidden doors of “De Vermis Mysteriis”? What horrific bloodsucker will our occultists unleash as they reach for the stars?--JL

Children of Horror,
Beautiful. Tranquil. Deadly. The swamp is all of these and so much more. Raised in the Atchafalaya Backwater Basin, I learned to love the swaying of giant flowers, listen to the serenity of singing birds, and stand in awe of ancient, whispering cypress. I also learned to fear the deadly cottonmouth or alligator lurking within those same black waters. I raged against clouds of mosquitos. And, walked in caution for dangerous bobcat, coyote, or mountain lion which may, or may not have been, behind the next tree.
Have I ever encountered a lunatic like tonight’s Randolph Carter in a swamp? The answer is yes. Was he family, friend, or foe? Again, the answer is yes. And, I’ll add tracking and wrestling a lunatic…father with a gun in a swamp, was certainly a lasting, terror filled moment.
But that’s a story possibly for another time.
A tentacled dark god rises for the apocalypse from the sea. A doctor uses alchemy and sorcery to reanimate the dead. And a lunatic is found crawling out of a swamp as we again howl at a leprous moon with Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
Tonight, we present H.P. Lovecraft’s tragic “The Statement of Randolph Carter”. This short story was written in December of 1919 and published in May 1920 for “The Vagrant”. Our tale focuses on occult student Randolph Carter and the expedition with his friend Harley Warren into a swampland. They are looking for a graveyard with a powerful secret.
Can Randolph Carter explain what happened to Harley Warren in Big Cypress Swamp? Or will the investigators be left holding the line? --JL

We dedicate tonight’s tale by Henry Kuttner and Robert Bloch, “The Black Kiss”, to horror fans Cole Marie and Jesse Ard! Thanks for the great comments. We’ll be bringing you thousands of more stories soon.
Children of Horror,
Graveyard rats squeal in ecstasy as a man is buried alive. Norman Bates still has “Mother” troubles”. In a ghoul’s graveyard, a broken-hearted man searches for his stolen wife’s corpse. While in another tale, an unsuspecting couple satisfy the appetite of the “Hungry House”. Finally, a bewitching secret lies deep beneath a man’s ancient Salem home, as we resurrect the rat gnawed and vampiric corpses of Henry Kuttner and Robert Bloch.
Henry Kuttner and Robert Bloch collaborate on tonight’s tale! Both were masters of horror, science fiction, mystery, and fantasy. Both writers have influenced and inspired so many great writers. These include H.P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, C.L. Moore, Anne Rice, Richard Matheson, Peter Straub, Ray Bradbury, and many more.
Tonight, we bring you the terrifyingly tragic sea tale, “The Black Kiss”. First published in the June 1937 issue of Weird Tales, this slithering sea serpent tale brings a deep, slimy bite. Our story focuses on artist Graham Dean and his troubling dreams of the sea.
As stated in Weird Tales:
“Two popular writers of weird fiction join forces to produce one of the eeriest sea-stories ever written—a story of the thing that swam in the black waters off California, and called itself Morella Godolfo.”
Can Graham Dean stop his California dreaming of the ominous dark sea? Or will he fall prey to the black kiss of the deadly dream weaver--Morella Godolfo? --JL

Children of Horror,
A terrified son tries to save his hypnotized father from the god Anubis. The curse of Scarabaeus crawls out for a reckoning on a mummy thief. And in New Orleans, a disillusioned writer attends the Mardi Gras and dinner with the Egyptian god Sebek, as we continue to slither through a series of Egyptian tales from Robert Bloch. The Egyptian gods desire you to “pass a good time on the bayou, che” with our latest lurid tale.
Our fourth episode is “The Secret of Sebek”. This terrifying tale was published in the November 1937 issue of Weird Tales and continues our crawl through the Robert Bloch Egyptian series.
As stated by Weird Tales:
What grisly horror, spawned in prehistoric ages in ancient Egypt, stalked through the weird house in New Orleans? A tale of the Mardi Gras!
This slithering story concerns our narrator’s visit to New Orleans during Mardi Gras. While kicking off the festivities he is invited to Henricus Vanning’s special party for “The Coffin Club”. Our narrator is asked to settle a dispute over a stolen mummy for the god Sebek.
Can our narrator warn “The Coffin Club” in time to avoid the wrath of Sebek? Or will he just run away after dinner…crying crocodile tears? --JL

"The Seal of the Satyr" (Narrated By Jeffrey LeBlanc)
"He did not look long. A single moment of numbing realization, and then he leaped into the pool–leaped straight into the deepest water, breaking with his body the mad reflection he had seen on the mirrored surface."

An aged cloak turns a man into a vampire. A hotel clerk has trouble controlling his murderous “Mother”. And a lunar flower causes people to howl at the moon…as werewolves, as we stalk around the Bloch—Robert Bloch that is. His latest tale is sure to offend the gods…of darkness.
Our “From-the-Grave Mentor, Robert Bloch, was a fiction writer with a diverse array of stories in crime, horror, fantasy and science fiction. He is best known as the writer of “Psycho” that led to Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece, many great tales on Rod Serling’s “Night Gallery”, Weird Tales, Strange Stories, and others. Our personal favorite is Bloch’s script for the Hammer horror film classic, “The House That Dripped Blood”.
Horror and comedy were his trademark. Robert Bloch’s fondness for humor in horror was evident in puns. It could be seen in the titles of his story collections such as “Tales in a Jugular Vein”, “Such Stuff as Screams Are Made Of” and “Out of the Mouths of Graves”.
And of course, there’s the classic Bloch favorite line that tickles our funny bone, “I have the heart of a child. I keep it in a jar on my shelf.”
A protégé’ to H.P. Lovecraft, Robert Bloch was in a select group known as the Lovecraft Circle with such greats as Frank Belknap Long, Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith and many more. Learning with these masters, Bloch created hundreds of short stories and over 30 novels.
Robert Bloch won numerous awards in writing. He won The Hugo Award (“That Hell-Bound Train”), The Bram Stoker Award, and The World Fantasy Award. Bloch served a term as president of The Mystery Writers of America (1970). He was a member of The Mystery Writers of America, Science Fiction Writers of America, The Writers Guild of America, and The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Most notably, there is one society he probably still is an undead member of –The Count Dracula Society.
“The Seal of the Satyr” is a short story written by Robert Bloch and published for Strange Stories in 1939. The horrific, sacrificial tale certainly has led many horror writers to borrow heavily from this incantation. However, Bloch’s version is on a whole more psychotic, and far more terrifying level.
This lurid tale centers on Roger Talquist and his journey with Papa Lepolis to an ancient Greek altar that had once served to worship the gods of the forest.
Will Roger find the altar with Papa Lepolis? How will such a discovery change him and seal his fate?–JL

Sorcerer Giant Horror: 'The Colossus of Ylourgne' By Clark Ashton Smith
‘Gaspard, returning from his dark plunge into Lethean emptiness, found himself gazing into the eyes of Nathaire: those eyes of liquid night and ebony, in which swam the chill, malignant fires of stars that had gone down to irremeable perdition. For some time, in the confusion of his senses, he could see nothing but the eyes, which seemed to have drawn him forth like baleful magnets from his swoon. Apparently disembodied, or set in a face too vast for human cognizance, they burned before him in chaotic murk; Then, by degrees, he saw the other features of the sorcerer, and the details of a lurid scene; and became aware of his own situation.’

Children of Horror,
A freezing man on a mountain recalls being accused of vampirism. An archeologist runs for his life from a mythological serpent in a swamp. And, a young boy unleashes demonic evil from a psychotic vagrant, as we dwell in darkness with Jeffrey LeBlanc.
Our latest ghostly tale may get us screamed at…by a banshee.
The Curious Death of Dionysus Chennault is a new short story that we will be including in the collection, These Hallowed Horrors, set for publication December2020. Our story focuses on Dionysus Chennault and his encounter with a supernatural terror in a frozen swamp.
What is terrorizing Dionysus Chennault on his lonely island? Can Dionysus solve the mystery of the banshee, or will he choke under the strain? --JL

The Most Horrific Ghost Tales: Ambrose Bierce's "The Spook House"
#HWA #ambrosebierce #mosthorrificghosttale #ghosts
https://open.spotify.com/show/6B0IOnX1mVa5joSfqnjK5s
https://anchor.fm/dweller-of-the-dark
“This apartment was suffused with a faint greenish light, the source of which I could not determine, making everything distinctly visible, though nothing was sharply defined. Everything, I say, but in truth the only objects within the blank stone walls of that room were human corpses. In number they were perhaps eight or ten - it may well be understood that I did not truly count them. They were of different ages, or rather sizes, from infancy up, and of both sexes. All were prostrate on the floor, excepting one, apparently a young woman, who sat up, her back supported by an angle of the wall. A babe was clasped in the arms of another and older woman. A half-grown lad lay face downward across the legs of a full-bearded man. One or two were nearly naked, and the hand of a young girl held the fragment of a gown which she had torn open at the breast. The bodies were in various stages of decay, all greatly shrunken in face and figure. Some were but little more than skeletons."--Ambrose Bierce (The Spook House)

H. P. Lovecraft's "Polaris" (Narrated By Jeffrey LeBlanc)
#polaris #dreams #nightmares #pastlives #hplovecraft #horrorwriting #hwa #horrorpoetry #authortube #booktube #instahorror #horrorgram
"And as I writhe in my guilty agony, frantic to save the city whose peril every moment grows, and vainly striving to shake off this unnatural dream of a house of stone and brick south of a sinister swamp and a cemetery on a low hillock; the Pole Star, evil and monstrous, leers down from the black vault, winking hideously like an insane watching eye which strives to convey some strange message, yet recalls nothing save that it once had a message to convey."--H. P. Lovecraft

Children of Horror,
You walk alone in an ancient forest. On a winding path, chilling fog rolls in blanketing the woodlands. A brilliant full moon sometimes illuminates your ghostly path. Suddenly, you hear the long, mournful bay of a wolf; a savage beast is on the hunt…for flesh! Spine tingling chills run down your spine as you stagger and stumble in the mist.
A terrifying sound—a growl, is heard! What creature circles you now?!
Tonight, we begin a series of the best werewolf stories ever written. Terrifying, horrific, and haunting, the coven of horror masters that wrote these lurid tales will release their inner beast. Our first hellhound to rip out your throat, is Robert E. Howard’s “In the Forest of Villefere. Over a decade before Lon Chaney, Jr became “The Wolfman”, this tale of the tortured beast transformed by moonlight, bared its fangs,
Enjoy!--JL

VOODOO HORROR: "Kelly the Conjure Man" by Robert E. Howard
There are strange tales told when the full moon shines
Of voodoo nights when the ghost-things ran—
But the strangest figure among the pines
Was Kelly the conjure-man

Children of Horror/ Legion of Ghouls,
Tonight,
We second line with a coffin as the Voodoo drums rumble on. While dancing away with umbrellas asway, we watch the flambeaux torch to life igniting the night for Kelly the Conjure Man by Robert E. Howard.
We are dedicating this one to the man who was the charismatic and…undying Baron Samedi in ‘Live and Let Die”. And we had a nightmare or two with his performance as the ghastly Jupiter in the TV production of Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Gold Bug’. He is the late and horrific great Geoffrey Lamont Holder. We pray the Master of Dance and Voodoo is still kicking up the spirits for all eternity.

Children of Horror/ Legion of Ghouls,
Tonight, we crush the skull of the legendary master of horror and fantasy—Robert E. Howard. We present his blood-chilling, and haunting poetic horror from the August 1938 issue of Weird Tales ghastly titled, “Lines Written in the Realization That I Must Die”. What soul crushing demons could have plagued Howard’s mind to create such devious verses? Knowing the tragic end of this horror master, one could say this tale was more prophetic than anyone could imagine.
Enjoy!

Children of Horror,
Civil War ghosts stalk silently through moonlit forest. A horrific creature attacks a man’s dead wife in the dark. And a soldier literally has his life pass before his eyes as he is hanged. These are just a few of the horrific stories by Ambrose Bierce.
Ambrose Bierce was an American short story writer, journalist, poet, and Civil War veteran. He is the author of the comedic “The Devil’s Dictionary” which was named as one of “The 100 Greatest Masterpieces of American Literature” by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. Bierce’s most horrific and anthologized work, “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge”, has been described as “one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature”.
His best collection by far though is Bierce’s “Tales of Soldiers and Civilians” was cited by the Grolier Club as one of the 100 most influential American books printed before 1900.
Bierce was regarded as one of the most influential journalists in the United States. He was a pioneer in realist fiction influencing such authors as Richard Matheson, Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft. And, just as Poe, Ambrose Bierce was considered an influential and feared literary critic
Ambrose Bierce’s greatest story was his own. In December 1913, Bierce traveled to Chihuahua, Mexico, to gain first-hand experience of the Mexican Revolution. While traveling with rebel troops he disappeared. He was never seen again.
Tonight we present one of the first science fiction horror stories written by the master of horror, Ambrose Bierce. It's called "The Damned Thing" and it's sure to bring the claws with this one. The selected excerpt from our master of horror says it all:
“As with sounds, so with colours. At each end of the solar spectrum the chemist can detect the presence of what are known as ‘actinic’ rays. They represent colours — integral colours in the composition of light — which we are unable to discern. The human eye is an imperfect instrument; its range is but a few octaves of the real ‘chromatic scale.’ I am not mad; there are colours that we cannot see.”
“The Damned Thing” first appeared in “Tales from New York Town Topics” on December 7, 1893.
The story focuses on Hugh Martin and the strange events surrounding his…murder.
Will anyone see their way to the culprit of Hugh Martin’s inevitable demise? Or will the accursed thing blind side them as well?--JL

And now RUMBLE!!!
Children of Horror,
A terrified man encounters the curse of Scarabaeus after stealing a mummy. A father and son pay a terrible price for angering the god Anubis. And a robber of tombs is left to die alone in the desert after encountering the Faceless God, as we unwrap a series of Egyptian tales from Robert Bloch. These may make you want to call your mummy.
We present our series “The Egyptian Tales of Robert Bloch” which focus on Robert Bloch Egyptian tales published from 1936 to 1938 for Weird Tales. It’s no doubt the 1932 script by John L. Balderson for Universal’s “The Mummy” cursed Bloch to write his own horrific canon.
For our first episode we present “The Faceless God”. This lurid tale published in the May 1936 issue of Weird Tales began the Bloch Egyptian series.
As stated by Weird Tales:
A tremendous story of a fearful trek across the Egyptian desert, and the malignant stone idol that waited for the doctor’s return.
The story concerns an evil dealer in antiquities, Doctor Stugatche, and his expedition to a forgotten statue in the desert. The statue belongs to a god so vile that all record of the being was erased.
Can Dr Stugatche and his team find the statue of the Faceless God? Or, will he become another victim to Nyarlathotep?--JL

"That Hell-Bound Train" is a short supernatural story by Robert Bloch. It was originally published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction in September 1958.
The creation of “That Hell-Bound Train” is a curious story. Originally shaped by William Tenn, who at the time had an editorial position at Fantasy and Science Fiction salvaging stories that had been selected by Anthony Boucher as "not quite good enough to be published, but still too good to have been rejected". From an interview in 2001, Tenn explained that the original version of "That Hell-Bound Train" had been "an absolutely fine piece of work that just didn't have a usable ending"; consequently, he devised a new ending "and persuaded Robert Bloch to write it".
"That Hell-Bound Train" won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1959. “Comic Book Resources” has described it as "a classic deal-with-the-devil tale with a nice twist at the end". The story centers around Martin, a young hobo with a fondness for trains, considering whether to abandon crime when a strange train pulls up beside him on a desolate train track. The train conductor offers Martin anything he wants, in return for which he will "ride that Hell-Bound Train" when he dies.
Will Martin take our devilish Conductor’s offer? Can Martin beat the odds and....shame the Devil?--JL

“The cold, heavy cloth hung draped about Henderson’s shoulders. The faint odor rose mustily in his nostrils as he stepped back and surveyed himself in the mirror. The lamp was poor, but Henderson saw that the cloak effected a striking transformation in his appearance. His long face seemed thinner, his eyes were accentuated in the facial pallor heightened by the somber cloak he wore."--Robert Bloch (The Cloak)

A terrified son tries to save his hypnotized father from the god Anubis. The curse of Scarabaeus crawls out for a reckoning on a mummy thief. And in Cornwall, a young man has dinner with the Egyptian god Bubastis, as we continue a series of Egyptian tales from Robert Bloch. The Egyptian gods invite you to chew the fat with them on this one.
Our third episode is “The Brood of Bubastis”. This horrific tale was published in the March 1937 issue of Weird Tales and continues our Robert Bloch Egyptian series. This was the last Bloch story Howard Phillips Lovecraft saw his young pupil write before his untimely death.
As stated by Weird Tales:
A shuddery story of a ghastly charnel crypt in a weird cave in the hills of Cornwall!
The story concerns our narrator’s visit to his friend Malcolm Kent in Cornwall. Malcolm has become obsessed with a lost Egyptian cult in England.
What dark mystery will our narrator learn in the crypt of Cornwall from Malcolm Kent? Can our suicidal narrator solve this Egyptian puzzle in time to feed his cat? --JL

Children of Horror,
An accursed raven haunts a man with a devilish secret “Evermore”. The court jester of a tyrant king has the last burning laugh. And a maniac confesses a heartfelt tale of murder and madness, as the leaves turn crisp’d and sere on the corpse of Edgar Allan Poe.
Happy 212th birthday master of mystery, the macabre, and horror! Wherever your ghoulish soul may haunt, we implore you to haunt “Evermore!”
Tonight, for Edgar Allan Poe’s birthday, we present one of Poe’s most terrifying creations—The Tell-Tale Heart. This sadistic short story should really pull at your heart-strings…literally. Our tale focuses on a madman narrating his murder of a dear friend. Then the resurrection of his victim’s dead heart while our narrator is under questioning.
Can our narrator come to terms with the horrifying murder he committed? Or will all his sanity be drowned out by his dead victim’s beating heart?-JL

Children of Horror,
A tentacled dark god rises for the apocalypse from the sea. A doctor uses alchemy and sorcery to reanimate the dead. And, a scientist creates a resonator opening other dimensions of terror as we rip into the crypt of Howard Phillips Lovecraft.
H. P. Lovecraft was a master of horror and weird fiction. He achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror, science fiction, fantasy, and poetry. Many of Lovecraft’s greatest works were first published only in pulp magazines. And strangely, he was virtually unknown as a writer during his lifetime and died in obscure poverty.
Tonight, we present H.P. Lovecraft’s terrifying “From Beyond”. This short story was written in 1920 and published in June 1934 for “The Fantasy Fan”. This ghastly tale has inspired many great horror novels such as Stephen King’s “Revival” and King’s short story and movie “The Mist”. Others include the 2013 movie “Banshee Chapter”, a “Star Trek: The Next Generation” episode titled “Phantasms”, and many more.
And, we greatly recommend the 1986 movie cult classic “From Beyond” by Stuart Gordon. Though it is loosely based on Lovecraft’s work.
What inter-dimensional secret does Crawford Tillinghast’s resonator hold? Can our narrator get his mind into the madness and massacre the monsters from beyond…before it’s too late? –JL
