  Barzai the Wise, a high priest and prophet greatly learned in the lore of the "gods of earth", or Great Ones, attempts to scale the mountain of Hatheg-Kla in order to look upon their faces, accompanied by his young disciple Atal. Upon reaching the peak, Barzai at first seems overjoyed until he finds that the "gods of the earth" are not there alone, but rather are overseen by the "other gods, the gods of the outer hells that guard the feeble gods of earth!" Atal flees, and Barzai is never seen again.

  Evil runs through this cursed island
  And these wicked sisters are about to make it burn…
  When sisters Lily and Della Pedley are persecuted for the shocking murder of their parents, they flee from their home in Cornwall to a remote and unnamed island in Scotland – an island known for its strange happenings, but far away from the whispers and prying eyes of strangers.
  Lily is terrified of what her sister will might do next, and she soon realises that they have arrived at a place where nothing is as it seems. A bitterness runs through the land like poison, and the stories told by the islanders seem to be far more than folklore.
  Della settles in too easily, the island folk drawn to her strangeness, but Lily is plagued by odd and unsettling dreams, and as an annual festival draws nigh, she discovers that she has far more to fear than she could ever have imagined. Or does she…?
  Chilling, atmospheric and utterly hypnotic, Small Fires is a contemporary gothic novel that examines possession, generational trauma, female rage, and the perilous bonds of family – an unsettling reminder that the stories we tell can be deadly…
  Midsommar meets Midnight Mass in a folk horror, modern gothic masterpiece.

  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.
