    I will not mention which Lovecraft dominate horror narrating CZcams channel I am referring to, but from their sheer volume you can probably bable it out. I was growing very concerned when I listen to them read the Dunwich Horror and was bored out of my mind. I had not liked their color out of space and only knew call of cuthulu was good because I read it myself. So I ventured out to find someone to really bring the text alive. The search didn't take long when I found myself utterly mesmerized by Wayne's narration! It's absolutely marvelous and matches the context of what is being read beautifully. Great job Wayne!

    • @rainking4242
      @rainking4242 Před rokem +2

      Not quite. Edward killed “Asenath” and buried her body in the basement. Her father was powerful enough that even after death, he was able to take over Edward’s body again and put Edward’s mind into Asenath’s corpse. It had been rotting for several months and that’s why it smelled so bad and fell apart in the last scene.
