  “Come on over. There’s no terrible aliens here now. Be sure to bring all evidence of them so we can laugh and laugh at them. Come on down. We’ll have a gay ole time”

  Is nobody gonna talk about how absolutely brilliant the audio editing on Akeley&apos;s words is? The extremely subtle, quiet computerized note layered underneath Ian&apos;s voice? <b>chef&apos;s kiss</b>

  Guy’s being menaced by flying crab people from the Outer Darkness but is reluctant to abandon his ancestral home. Aside from being &nbsp;yet another horror story that’s actually about real estate, it also highlights just how weird people from Vermont are.

  To me, &quot;The Whisperer in Darkness&quot; getting the HorrorBabble treatment is more exciting than anything happening at the movies.

  I listen to these stories while at work. I am a custodian and I enjoy listening while cleaning rooms.

  Always loved the stories of Lovecraft from a psychological perspective. Nearly every protagonist is a reflection of himself that gets tortured and driven mad. Almost like he was trying to punish himself.

  What I love about Lovecraft are his charactera always starting out skeptical because of their knowledge of the world, until they realize what what they know is &nbsp;not all there is to know. Some things are beyond normal comprehension.

  You know from the Alien&apos;s perspective this could be really funny. They accidentally have someone record their big secrets, finally kill the guy that recorded them after not being able to overcome his dogs for weeks, and then have to use their little pincers to put together a bad letter hoping to get the proof back since they were SO BAD AT THIS and left SO MUCH EVIDENCE, and then have to wear the guy like a not at all convincing meat puppet. Really funny in a dark kind of way just how bad at this they are. They&apos;re just lucky that the main character is even worse at this than they are. Poor crab fungus guys, they messed up every step of the way, Nyarlathotep is wishing they got better henchmen.
