Peer into the ghastly world of fiendish cults, ancient beings and otherworldly creatures so terrifying, merely looking upon them causes insanity! The ninth annual H.P. Lovecraft Festival celebrates Halloween and the horror fiction writer H.P. Lovecraft, who Stephen King called "the greatest practitioner of horror in the 20th century." Lit by candlelight and bathed in ghostly mist at St. John's Lutheran Church in New York, Radiotheatre performs his many stories, plus original orchestral scores and a plethora of sound effects to complete the bloodcurdling ambiance. See the description below for details on the shows.
