Grauenhafte Mythen und fremde Mächte, Helden, deren scheinbar behütetes Leben sich stets an der Schwelle zu Horror und Wahnsinn befindet - das ist der Stoff, aus dem die Lovecraftschen Erzählungen sind. Auf Wälder der Finsternis sind musikalisch virtuos inszenierte Lesungen von Geschichten und Gedichte des amerikanischen Kultautors versammelt, packend interpretiert von Simon Jäger, Simon Newby und Torsten Sense, alles vom 'Orchester der Schatten' mit einem aufwändigen Soundtrack begleitet, der die düsteren Seelenlandschaften noch lebendiger macht.

The unnamed narrator of the story lives alone in a dark, ancient castle surrounded by a dense forest. He never sees sunlight, and he has no memory of human contact.

After the dangerous climb to the top room of the tower, the narrator is delighted to see the moon through a grating. Soon, however, he discovers the horrible truth behind his confinement.

"Celephaïs", extrait : "En rêve, Kuranes contempla la cité dans la vallée. La côte s'étendant derrière le pic neigeux qui domine la mer, et les galères aux couleurs gaies qui sortent du port pour aller vers les régions lointaines où le ciel et la mer se rejoignent.

"The Dunwich Horror" is a horror short story by American writer H. P. Lovecraft. It takes place in Dunwich, a fictional town in Massachusetts. It is considered one of the core stories of the Cthulhu Mythos.

In the deep glens of Massachusetts, in the wild hills of Vermont and in Australia's sandy wastes, unfathomable things lurk. Things that shine with an unnatural light, that speak and buzz strangely in the night, that prowl in the mind. Things not of our Earth. Widely considered to be the most significant writer of supernatural tales in the 20th century, H.P. Lovecraft made a profound contribution to science fiction.

Based in Oklahoma around 1889, a newly arrived couple learn about the local legends surrounding a "Snake God", Yig, who takes vengeance on anyone who kills a serpent by killing them or turning them into a half-snake monster. The husband has a snake phobia which isn't helped by the wife killing a nest of rattlesnakes.

Classic Tales of Terror collects two classic chillers of the supernatural. "The Cats of Ulthar" tells of an elderly couple with a penchant for animal cruelty. They kill the pet of an orphan and the animals retaliate with a terrible vengeance. In "The Yellow Sign", an artist encounters a horribly disfigured man who exudes a terrible aura of unspeakable evil.

Although best known for his short stories, H.P. Lovecraft considered himself a poet. These are five short poems by Lovecraft narrated by award-winning narrator and producer Mike Vendetti.
