Traveller: "So tell me a bit about this Innsmoth"

Train Station Agent: "boy did you ask the right guy" *proceeds to rant out the entire towns history for twenty minutes*

[MyRabbitHole]

Best reading of the story I heard yet. The old guy is spot on. Everything is clear and understandable even for a non English speaker. Speed is perfect. Kudos.

[supergeeks]

The longer stories like at the mountains of madness and your scp videos are what made me fall in love with this channel I’m literally preaching about the good word of the exploring series like a religion at this point

[brettonalwood]

Remember the days when OP was afraid to post 15 minute videos because he didn't think people would listen to his voice for that long? What a long way we have come.

[j_west]

His readings of lovecraft make me feel foolish for buying the hp lovecraft collection on audible. His voice just fits these stories so perfectly. You've just earned a top tier patron.

[nono]

One of the most celebrated and influential horror stories ever. I sure hope Lovecraft's popularity well encourage others to pursue other cosmic horror stories too from different authors, it's such a beautiful genre ripe with potential.

YOU LITERALLY POSTED AS SOON AS I WAS ABOUT TO SLEEP. Bro I always fall asleep to stories, I especially love your channel and the hours long worth of content. I now have about a week worth of sleep material spacing this one video out plus it's raining right now. Im finna get that GOOD GOOD sleep

Thank you very much

[holyglaucus]

Wow, can we take a sec to acknowledge how beautiful OPs voice acting is? That smooth, cool narration voice to the smokey drawl then over to the crisp, more city boy nasally one had me stunned with the clean range.
Amazing work as usual man, love these. 👍🏼

[That_one_person]

I was having such a bad night at work this just saved me, I didn’t know it was coming but it was needed

[evangoodwin]

Okay but what if you were just trying to board a train and you were like “Hey man tell me a little about this town” and then he proceeded to monologue for 30 minutes

[raysunshine]

I have ADHD and can't listen to audio books - I space out in a matter of minutes. Lately I discovered it's because the books sound like they are _being read_, not told. It's a huge difference I noticed while listening to fiction podcasts: I never have a problem with them even if there are long monologues, - because even then they sound like they are being _told_ to someone - to a character or to the audience, doesn't matter. This narration of Shadow over Innsmouth is the very first audio book I managed to not only finish but even enjoy. All thanks to the way it's _told_, not _read_ (even though it is being read, obviously). I'm so grateful for it and am amazed at the narrator's skill at voice acting. The story sounds alive and I really enjoyed it. Thank you so much!

[rhesareeves]

I've been aware of this channel for some time now, but I only just recently started listening to your Lovecraft stuff. I never donate, it simply isn't something I do. However, as an aspiring writer that's been inspired by this content, I'll make an exception for you. This is top shelf. Who knows, maybe I'll find more exceptions. Thank you.🙏

[seanmorgan]

Thank you so much for narrating Cthulhu Mythos stories! "The Shadow over Innsmouth" is one of my all-time favorites, Along with "The Thing on The Doorstep".

[billflunkendorf]

One of my favorite lovecraft stories, I’ve already read it once and listened to it once but listening to you read it will be 100x better, you’re so good at what you do

[AmesiesCorner]

Ok, so.. This is a pretty creepy tale. What makes it hit "home" for me is I grew up literally where Innsmouth is described as being, The little area where the old rail line goes through Rowley has only 2 houses that are as close as the hotel is set at. I lived in one of those houses. The whole time the main character is running from the fish people all I could think of was just run west to Byfield and he'll be fine..

[Volvith]

Me: *"Yay it's an HP Lovecraft story!"*
Me after 10 minutes of word soup: _"oh yeah it's an HP Lovecraft story."_

[Hijackpro]

I needed this, just got off the graveyard shift an this is going to help me to sleep. We appreciate every little word you read to us, some of us don’t mind what type of story, because it’s YOU that we come for.

[IzzyMarrie]

I just found out you're on Spotify and this will sound completely random but oh my god, I'm so happy. I work overnights and we're allowed to listen to music and podcasts while we work, and I so look forward to listening to you while working. I forgot about your channel for a bit, only today remembering how much I love your videos and thinking that it'd be great to listen to you at work. Listening to YouTube really drains my battery though, and I risk accidentally clicking off the video as I can't turn off my phone screen and listen like on Spotify.

Thank you so much for your awesome videos, but also, thank you for uploading to Spotify as well so that I can binge listen to your content easier while working

[DarkHypernova]

What a coincidence, I just started reading this story.

H.P. really loved using the word furtive in this one.

Such an array of beautiful words to describe such an ancient relic.
