    The Horla - An Invisible Horror...

    Guy De Maupassant

    A quiet life by the Seine begins to unravel when a man becomes convinced that an invisible presence has entered his world. 
    At first, the changes are small: sleepless nights, strange sensations, unexplained exhaustion, and an increasing certainty that he is no longer alone. Then objects begin to move without explanation, and the possibility of an unseen being becomes impossible for him to ignore. As his obsession grows, he tries to determine whether the Horla is a supernatural entity, an unknown force, or a terrifying product of his own mind. 
    Guy de Maupassant's The Horla is a landmark of psychological and supernatural horror, told through the intimate form of a man's private journal. Its ambiguity is central to its terror: the listener is never allowed a comfortable answer about where reality ends and madness begins. 
    This Modern English Edition presents Maupassant's story in clear, natural contemporary language while preserving its central narrative, atmosphere, and psychological tension. 
    The audiobook also includes an original companion, providing additional context and analysis for listeners who want to explore the story beyond the main narrative. 
    Narrated by Luke Meinier Dalofin, this edition offers a contemporary way to experience one of the most unsettling works of nineteenth-century supernatural fiction.

    The Festival

    H. P. Lovecraft

    "The Festival" is a short story by H. P. Lovecraft written in October 1923 and published in the January 1925 issue of Weird Tales. The story was inspired by Lovecraft's first trip to Marblehead, Massachusetts, in December 1922. Lovecraft later called that visit "the most powerful single emotional climax experienced during my nearly forty years of existence." In a flash all the past of New England—all the past of Old England—all the past of Anglo-Saxondom and the Western World--swept over me and identified me with the stupendous totality of all things in such a way as it never did before and never did again. That was the high tide of my life. The narrator's path through Kingsport corresponds to a route to the center of Marblehead; the house with the overhanging second story is probably based on Marblehead's 1 Mugford Street. The church in the story is St. Michael's Episcopal Church on Frog Lane. Built in 1714, it is the oldest Anglican church in New England that is still standing at its original site. The church is on a modest hill; for most of the 18th century, it had a steeple. Its crypt, where parishioners were interred, remains. Since Lovecraft visited the church (as evidenced by his signature in the guest register), he may have spoken with the rector and learned such details about the church.
