About this listen
The Call of Cthulhu is one of the most influential horror stories ever written, laying the foundation for what is now known as cosmic horror.
First published in 1928, this short story by H. P. Lovecraft follows a fragmented investigation into a strange cult, a mysterious bas-relief, and disturbing accounts that point toward the existence of an ancient and incomprehensible entity. As the narrator assembles documents, testimonies, and reports, a terrifying realization begins to emerge: humanity is neither central nor safe in the universe it inhabits.
Rather than relying on action or shock, The Call of Cthulhu builds its horror through implication, atmosphere, and the gradual collapse of human certainty. The story explores themes of insignificance, forbidden knowledge, and the fear of truths too vast for the human mind to endure.
This audiobook presents the story unabridged, preserving Lovecraft’s original language, structure, and tone. It is ideal for listeners interested in classic horror, cosmic dread, existential fiction, and early twentieth-century speculative literature.
