H.P. Lovecraft wrote in the horror and sic-fi pulp magazines of his day. A writer's writer, mass appreciation of him came after his death as his influence found its way into an abundance of horror writing and horror movies through the years.
And so, he is the subject of this episode of Boys and Ghouls. Join Kat and Marshall as they discover the source of many of the spooks and chills they've loved for years, and explore the man behind them, that odd recluse from Rhode Island.
So, listen in as Marshall and Kat get into (among other things) his masterwork, "The Call of Cthulhu" and the 1980s adaptation of his pulpy best, "Re-Animator".
