Scott Weatherly of the 20th Century Geek podcast and the Stories Out Of Time & Space podcast joins Mike again this week, to continue their talk about one of the most influential fantasy/horror writers of the 20th Century; H.P. Lovecraft!
This week, in part 2, Scott talks about Alan Moore’s Lovecraftian comic and surviving in Lovecraft’s world, Scott then reads out a short passage from a Lovecraft story and explains why it’s hard to adapt Lovecraftian stories onto screen, Scott also recounts how he first got into Lovecraft, and many other Lovecraft-related topics are discussed!

Last week, part 1 of Mike & Scott’s chat started with Lovecraft’s life including his bigotry, relationships & death, before talking about Lovecraft’s writing style, the realm of Lovecraftian horror that he created including ancient beings like Cthulu, what happened to his works after he died, so go back and listen to that if you haven’t already!
Some recommendations for starting Lovecraft are; Dagon, From Beyond, The Hound, Rats In The Walls, Horror At Red Hook, Herbert West: Reanimator & The Tomb – Scott recommended picking up the Wordsworth collection called Haunter Of The Dark as a starting point.
S. T. Joshi’s Lovecraft biographies are ones to pick up if you want to know even more about Lovecraft!
