  Title: The Shadow Over Innsmouth 
  Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1936 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Part 2 of Number 56 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  The Shadow Over Innsmouth is Lovecraft’s classic tale of a decaying seaside town bound to an ancient horror from the deep. 
  The story follows a traveler who visits the isolated port of Innsmouth, only to discover its inhabitants bear unsettling, amphibious traits — bulging eyes, flabby lips, and a strange, slinking gait. Through whispered rumors and a terrifying night on the run, he uncovers the truth: generations ago, the townsfolk struck a pact with the Deep Ones, an ancient ocean-dwelling race that offers wealth and longevity at a terrible cost. 
  As the narrator flees through collapsing streets and foggy wharves, pursued by inhuman figures emerging from the sea, he confronts a revelation far more disturbing than the town itself — one that ties his own fate to Innsmouth’s monstrous legacy. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this public-domain classic is revived in a fresh, chilling performance. The Shadow Over Innsmouth remains a cornerstone of maritime horror and one of Lovecraft’s most enduring nightmares.

  Louisa MacDonald was born in 1845, one of eleven children of part Scottish descent.  Together with three of her sisters they were known as the ‘MacDonald sisters’ primarily because of their marriages to well-known men.   
   
  In 1866 she married the wealthy industrialist Alfred Baldwin in a double wedding with her sister Anne.   
   
  After giving birth to Stanley on the 3rd August 1867, who would go on to become Prime Minister, she drifted into an unhappy life in her then residence in Worcestershire.  She had at least one miscarriage and days alone depressed and in darkness. 
   
  During the 1870’s the couple travelled to find a lasting cure and tried a variety of treatments which led to her recovery in 1883.  She now became a leading figure in her local village of Wilden, near Stourbridge. 
   
  Her writing career of novels, short stories and poetry is often overlooked, as was the case with so many women, yet her works reveal many talents and a gift for melding odd and weird circumstances into seemingly everyday life.   
   
  Louisa Baldwin died in 1925.

  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.
