For the first time ever, the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has produced an audio recording of all of Lovecraft's stories. These are not dramatizations like our Dark Adventure Radio Theatre - rather, this is an audiobook of the original stories, in all-new, never-before-heard recordings made by the HPLHS' own Andrew Leman and Sean Branney exclusively for this collection. This collection spans his entire career from his earliest surviving works of childhood to stories completed shortly before his death. All tales include original music by HPLHS composer Troy Sterling Nies.

Story
In upstate New York, in the woods around Woodstock, Dutchman's Creek flows out of the Ashokan Reservoir. Steep-banked, fast-moving, it offers the promise of fine fishing, and of something more, a possibility too fantastic to be true. When Abe and Dan, two widowers who have found solace in each other's company and a shared passion for fishing, hear rumors of the Creek, and what might be found there, the remedy to both their losses, they dismiss it as just another fish story.

Story
There are some odd things about Nate’s new apartment. Of course, he has other things on his mind. He hates his job. He has no money in the bank. No girlfriend. No plans for the future. So while his new home isn’t perfect, it’s livable. The rent is low, the property managers are friendly, and the odd little mysteries don’t nag at him too much. At least, not until he meets Mandy, his neighbor across the hall, and notices something unusual about her apartment. And Xela’s apartment. And Tim’s. And Veek’s.

Story
The Cthulhu Mythos is one of the 20th century's most singularly recognizable literary creations. Initially created by H. P. Lovecraft and a group of his amorphous contemporaries (the so-called "Lovecraft Circle"), The Cthulhu Mythos story cycle has taken on a convoluted, cyclopean life of its own. Some of the most prodigious writers of the 20th century, and some of the most astounding writers of the 21st century have planted their seeds in this fertile soil. The Book of Cthulhu harvests the weirdest and most corpulent crop of these modern mythos tales.

Just After Sunset - call it dusk, call it twilight, it's a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when nothing is quite as it appears, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It's the perfect time for Stephen King.

An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

Vex and Vax have always been outsiders. A harsh childhood in the elite elven city of Syngorn quickly taught them not to rely on others. Now, freed from the expectations of their exacting father and the scornful eyes of Syngorn’s elves, the cunning hunter and the conning thief have made their own way in the world of Exandria. The twins have traveled far and experienced great hardship. But with the help of Vex’s quick wit and Vax’s quicker dagger, they’ve always kept ahead of trouble. Now, unknown perils await them in the bustling city of Westruun.

Publisher's summary
Welcome to Arkham County. Population: 749,824. But that number’s dropping all of the time....
Lying northeast of Massachusetts, just south of Hell, Arkham County is somewhere you find yourself, not somewhere you ever mean to go. Once you do find it though, you'd better get used to living there, as you may be there for however long you have left to live.
From within the walls of Arkham’s asylum, reclusive writer Randolph Carter tells the story of orphan Violet Flintock, who arrives in Arkham County in search of her own history only to be instantly greeted by the bloody realities of this small town, whose foundations are built from the lore and mythology of HP Lovecraft.
In this Audible Original production, Stanley Tucci (The Devil Wears Prada, Fortitude) leads a cast to introduce you to the horrific, bizarre and just plain weird world of Arkham County. This HP Lovecraft-inspired tale will delight fans and those unfamiliar with his wild, surreal and terrifying horror stories.
Starring;
Stanley Tucci as Randolph Carter
With:
David Annen as Vincent Matravers
Emily Barber as Violet Flintlock

Then, an insolent ungodliness takes hold of the local children, mysterious fur patches appear on limbs and people start disappearing.... Something evil is stirring in the woods.

Thank goodness for Tucci!!
The whole thing is much like Twilight Zones. Stanley Tucci is the base for all the stories. The stories are interesting, intertwining and continue to draw you emotionally and intellectually.

a bit tough to follow
while this Lovecraft-inspired story was entertaining, by using so many names, places and situational events from the original HPL mythos, it was tough to follow and confusing to wade through the cast of characters - and their relationships.
I had to listen 3 times to figure it out.

Story wasn’t that bad, background sound effects overkill
I have to say the performances of the people were BRILLIANT! But they could have done away with a lot of the background sound effects as it does get over powering at times when you are trying to listen to what is happening. I would recommend the listen either way cause a full crew production to any book is ALWAYS WORTH IT.

Good performance, but could be better
Good story. Kind of surprised it’s free.
Performance was good, but it could have been better. There were moments in the story where I didn’t really know what was going on. The sound effects didn’t help either. It just left me confused. For example, describing the monsters, no idea what they looked like.
Ultimately, it was a good production.

Decent Story, Great Acting
Loosely based on H.P. Lovecraft's Mythos, this tries to intermingle the story of most of his characters into one audio drama. Bringing together Randolph Carter, the Wateleys, Professor Dyer and a host of others, Arkham County dramatizes the modern back story of most of these characters--before they went completely insane, or died.
While the story seems to wander in places and almost feels lost, some of it feels forced as if the writers were trying to mix in too much of H.P Lovecraft's mythos. I did find the dramatic performance to be top notch though.
While I got this for free on a promo, I would likely pay for it simply because I enjoy the Lovecraftian Mythos. Overall it was an enjoyable listen, I will listen to it again in the future, although I will put this in my Radio Drama Catalog.

Fun Lovecraftian Romp with overdone sound effects
Fun light Lovecraft inspired story not lacking in self aware humor. The sound effects are overdone and loud so as to distract from rather than enhance or help the story.

It helps if you really know love craft
It is a well performed interesting story that has vibrant imagery and good writing. It doesn’t dwell on overworked tropes but embraces the inspiration. Have fun, be weird.

Genuinely scary
Like all Lovecraft, the story gets confusing and obscure. I only made it about half way through because it is actually pretty creepy.
