H.P. Lovecraft
Acerca de esta escucha
The Beast in the Cave, written by H.P. Lovecraft in 1905 when he was just 14 years old, is one of his earliest forays into the world of macabre fiction. Despite its brevity and the youthfulness of its author, this tale demonstrates Lovecraft's early talent for crafting an atmosphere of suspense and his fascination with the grotesque and the unknown.
The story centers on an unnamed narrator who becomes lost in the sprawling, labyrinthine Mammoth Cave. As darkness closes in and hope of rescue fades, the narrator is overcome by terror when he hears the eerie sounds of a creature stalking him in the darkness. The tension builds as the narrator encounters a horrifying beast, forcing listeners to confront the unsettling possibility of human degeneration and the thin line between civilization and savagery.
The Beast in the Cave foreshadows many of Lovecraft’s recurring themes, such as the insignificance of humanity in a vast and hostile universe and the primal fears lurking within the human psyche. Its vivid descriptions of the cavernous setting create an oppressive sense of isolation, while the shocking twist at the story’s end leaves listeners contemplating the fragile boundaries of humanity.

The Book is an enigmatic and fragmentary story written by H.P. Lovecraft in 1933, left incomplete and unpublished during his lifetime. It stands as a tantalizing glimpse into the core of Lovecraft’s mythos, where forbidden knowledge and ancient horrors intertwine to create a sense of cosmic dread. Though brief, the piece carries the essence of Lovecraft's obsession with the dangers of delving into mysteries beyond human comprehension.

The Evil Clergyman is a brief but chilling work by H.P. Lovecraft, written in 1933 and published posthumously in 1939. Unlike many of Lovecraft's stories that delve into cosmic horror and elaborate mythologies, this tale presents a deeply personal and mysterious vision, drawing readers into an unsettling encounter with the unknown. Originally conceived as a vivid nightmare that Lovecraft recounted in a letter to fellow writer Bernard Austin Dwyer, this story unfolds with an eerie immediacy that reflects its dreamlike origins.

The tale follows an unnamed narrator, an intern at a mental hospital, who becomes intrigued by a patient, Joe Slater, a troubled man from the backwoods of the Catskills. Slater’s violent outbursts and visions of a celestial battle suggest a connection to a higher, otherworldly plane. Using a fictional “etheric wave” device, the narrator attempts to link his consciousness with Slater’s, embarking on a journey into an ethereal world where thoughts and dreams take on cosmic significance.

By the early ninth century, the Carolingian empire was at the height of its power. The Franks, led by Charlemagne, had built the largest European domain since Rome in its heyday. Though they jockeyed for power, prestige, and profit, the Frankish elites enjoyed political and cultural consensus. But just two generations later, their world was in shambles. Civil war, once an unthinkable threat, had erupted after Louis the Pious’s sons tried to overthrow him—and then placed their knives at the other’s neck. Families who had once charged into battle together now drew each other’s blood.
