Call of Cthulhu, The

di H. P. Lovecraft (Autore)

SPA Publishing, 2025

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A cornerstone of cosmic horror, The Call of Cthulhu is H. P. Lovecraft’s most famous and enduring tale—a chilling story of ancient gods, forbidden knowledge, and humanity’s terrifying insignificance in the universe. First published in 1928, it remains the definitive introduction to the Cthulhu Mythos. Told through a series of documents, journals, and eyewitness accounts, the story follows Francis Wayland Thurston, who uncovers a disturbing pattern of madness, cult activity, and strange occurrences across the globe. At the heart of the mystery is a monstrous entity: Cthulhu, an ancient being lying dormant beneath the sea, whose awakening would spell the end of mankind. Lovecraft masterfully builds suspense through fragments of testimony—an artist’s nightmarish visions, a police officer’s report on a horrifying swamp cult, and the shocking discovery of a derelict ship at sea. Piece by piece, Thurston realizes that humanity’s grasp on reality is fragile, and that there are truths too vast and terrible to comprehend. With its blending of Gothic atmosphere, investigative narrative, and cosmic dread, The Call of Cthulhu defined Lovecraft’s vision of horror: not merely monsters in the dark, but the realization that mankind is a fleeting accident in an uncaring universe. This audiobook edition brings Lovecraft’s masterpiece to life, immersing listeners in his most iconic story. Perfect for fans of horror, weird fiction, and the Mythos that continues to inspire countless writers, filmmakers, and artists, The Call of Cthulhu is an essential journey into madness and the unknown.
