Would you like to immerse yourself in the world of weird fiction?
The grimy weird is speculative fiction at its finest — a realm of horror, science fiction, and dark fantasy.
Coming to you from SpectreVision Radio, is The HorrorBabble Podcast. We produce recordings of stories by the pioneers of the genre — H. P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard — while breathing new life into forgotten classics penned by lesser-known authors.
With new recordings published twice weekly — Tuesdays and Fridays — you’ll encounter Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos, from the Nameless City to the Colour Out of Space; Clark Ashton Smith’s Zothique, where cosmic entities linger in a dying world; Robert E. Howard’s legendary tales of Bran Mak Morn and Conan; and everything else weird fiction has to offer: baffling beasts and deadly bargains, haunted houses and polar terrors, caverns and crypts, dreams and nightmares, vampires and werewolves… the list goes on.
If you have a taste for the macabre, you’re certain to find something to satisfy your ghoulish appetite.
