Story4.5 out of 5 stars 126
The ocean's imponderable depths contain mysteries far beyond the grasp of mortal men. From the adventurous mariners of ancient times, to simple fishermen of our own New England of yesteryear, mankind has found the seven seas to be both the source of life, and a watery grave. When man seeks to delve too deeply into that abyss, what appalling secrets will rise to the surface? And what will mankind do when faced with the unnamed horrors of the deep?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 92
In great cities of the world, humanity congregates, and commerce, culture, and cosmopolitan sophistication blossom in their gardens. But in the shadows that lie beyond the broad boulevards and glare of electric lights, great cities give birth to something else. In these shadows thrives a dim underworld, peopled by nefarious characters brought together from every godforsaken corner of the globe. Can a lone policeman make a stand for decency against the godless denizens of New York’s most loathsome slum, or will he find himself consumed by the filth and depravity of nameless cults?

Great performance
The actors are great. They make you see the words. The added sound effects bring the story to life (a car driving by, a horse drawn carriage, people talking in the background, glass breaking). Every character has a different voice. Great reading. I loved it.

Best version of this story yet!
I've listened to several different readings of this story as well as several dramatizations of it and this one has surpassed them all. It stayed true to Lovecraft's work while bringing that work to life in such a cool way. Please keep these Daek Adventure programs coming!

This was another great episode of Lovecraft horror. Differs from the film and manages to be creepy and disturbing. As always, the voice cast is superb. Love the Miskatonic school song! A scientist who really is mad to the core.

An hour's satisfaction
For a foreigner's bus commute it's a good companion. Easier to follow than some of the others dramatizations.
Before starting the dramatization reading the description of the story helps a lot if you are unfamiliar with the plot.
Developers are rewarded all my stars til I feel otherwise which likely will not differ in the near future.

Fantastic Version of My Favourite H.P. Lovecraft Story
Well that was exciting!
True to the original story but with the added sound effects and different voices it was a real treat!
Like all of Lovecraft’s works, it was a product of its time and so there is the inevitable racism. It is pretty offensive, so I thought I’d mention it.
Five stars, as the story was really brought to life.

Chilling Stuff!
Clearly, "Herbert West" has become the inspiration for much of what we now perceive as standard "Undead Fiction".
An good story, though not overly horrific, and brilliantly narrated as always.
