Title: The Festival 
Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
Original Publication: 1925 
Public Domain: Yes 
Series Placement: Number 40 in the Timeless Terrors series 
Description: 
The Festival by H. P. Lovecraft is a descent into ancestral nightmare — a tale where ancient rites and cosmic dread intertwine beneath the surface of New England’s winter calm. Written during Lovecraft’s mature period, the story evokes a world in which the past is never truly dead, and the living are bound to its monstrous inheritance. 
When a traveler returns to the town of his forebears to attend an ancient Yuletide festival, he finds a celebration not of light, but of the abyss. Beneath the candlelit decay of a medieval church, he witnesses a ceremony older than mankind — a revelation that shatters the boundary between life, death, and the unspeakable beyond. 
Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s cold, ritualistic terror and dreamlike descent into the subterranean unknown. While the text is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
Part of Timeless Terrors, a series devoted to resurrecting the masters of the macabre, The Festival stands as one of Lovecraft’s most haunting invocations of inherited horror — a chilling reminder that the blood of the past still calls across the centuries.

There is something about the number 3.    
 
The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
 
Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
 
Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
 
From their pens to your your ears.
