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?

Dark Adventure Radio Theatre presents Robert E. Howard's tale of horrors in Eastern Europe in a 1930s-style radio drama. Charlie Tower seeks refuge from the horrors of the Great War in Berlin's most notorious nightclubs. There a chain of events is set in motion that will lead him across Europe to investigate the mysterious Black Stone. Is it merely a creation of superstitious peasants, or is it a nexus for hideous gods of the ancient world to set foot into ours?

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?

Novelty listen
Do not get this if you are looking for a great piece of literature. It's a fun adventure romp- campy and dated. Knowing that going in... who can resist a Houdini, master of self promotion, and Lovecraft, master of cosmic horror, mash-up?

Fun With Houdini in Egypt
This is another excellent entry in the outstanding Dark Adventure Radio Theater series. This one is a bit different since we are following Harry Houdini and his wife during a thrilling adventure in Egypt. The production is outstanding as usual and the voice talent is simply superb. I have nearly all of these adventures and love them all!

One of the best titles in the library.
All I really want to say is that THIS performance (like many of the Society) is absolutely incredible. The performance just draws you in like you are with the group observing everything happening. It’s done so vividly. Honestly, most of The Society recordings are like that, but this is one of the best by far. The book goes on and instantly you are transported there. The actors and sound affects are top. You won’t be disappointed with this selection or any from the HP Lovecraft Historical Society audiobooks.

Such a fun episode!!!
Fans of the earlier episode of DART will definitely find this episode to be different, but I enjoyed the change of pace. I typically like my Lovecraft dark, ominous, and serious, but this was something else. This was much more an adventurous episode; it felt like I was watching the Brendan Fraser "Mummy" movies which I also really enjoy. I wouldn't want ever episode to be like this but something about this really worked, great job HPLHS!

Epic and Atmospheric!
The HPLHS consistently outdoes itself, simply fantastic!
The best stylistic radio drama I've heard since originals from the 1930's. If you value radio perfection' I cannot recommend this more.
