    Title: The Beast in the Cave 
    Author: H.P. Lovecraft 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1918 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Number 22 in the Timeless Terrors series 
    Description: 
    The Beast in the Cave by H.P. Lovecraft is an early yet striking example of the author’s mastery of atmosphere and psychological horror. Set deep within the winding passages of Kentucky’s Mammoth Cave, the story follows a man who becomes hopelessly lost in total darkness. As his torch burns out and his sense of direction fails, the oppressive silence gives way to the sound of something moving — something that should not exist in such depths. 
    With mounting dread, the narrator’s fear transforms into primal terror as he realizes he is not alone in the cavern’s endless blackness. What begins as a struggle against isolation turns into a confrontation with a horror born of darkness itself. 
    Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s claustrophobic tension and chilling final revelation. While the text is in the public domain, this narration is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
    This audiobook is part of Timeless Terrors, a series dedicated to resurrecting classic horror — works from masters of the macabre, retold in haunting new performances for a modern audience. 
    Listeners should prepare for a descent into pitch-black terror, where every sound could signal the approach of something unspeakable lurking in the dark.

    Lucy Maud Montgomery (November 30, 1874 – April 24, 1942), published as L. M. Montgomery, was a Canadian author best known for a series of novels beginning in 1908 with Anne of Green Gables. The book was an immediate success. The title character, orphan Anne Shirley, made Montgomery famous in her lifetime and gave her an international following.
    Aunt Caroline's Silk Dress: Patty came in from her walk to the post office with cheeks finely reddened by the crisp air. Carry surveyed her with pleasure. Of late Patty's cheeks had been entirely too pale to please Carry, and Patty had not had a very good appetite. Once or twice she had even complained of a headache. So Carry had sent her to the office for a walk that night, although the post office trip was usually Carry's own special constitutional, always very welcome to her after a weary day of sewing on other people's pretty dresses.
