About This Audiobook

Dive into a mind-bending journey with H.P. Lovecraft's 'Lovecraft Under the Influence', where the veil of reality thins, and sanity is a fragile commodity. These five stories, each a trip in itself, are bound together by a common thread: illicit substances that either open doors to otherworldly realms or help maintain a grip on this one. Matthew Schmitz's narration is a perfect match, his voice capturing the eerie, otherworldly atmosphere that Lovecraft is renowned for. What sets this audiobook apart is its unapologetic embrace of the surreal, making it a must-listen for fans of cosmic horror and psychedelic fiction.

Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

Schmitz's narration is a highlight of this collection. His measured pace and ability to convey the creeping dread that permeates Lovecraft's stories is nothing short of masterful. The standout tale, 'The Haunter of the Dark', is a chilling descent into madness, with Schmitz's performance bringing the protagonist's descent to life in a way that had me on the edge of my seat. However, at times, the pacing feels a tad too slow, which might lose the attention of listeners not already familiar with Lovecraft's style. Overall, 'Lovecraft Under the Influence' is a captivating listen, perfect for those seeking a taste of the weird and wonderful.
