As if Los Angeles isn’t nightmare enough — Lovecraft in Los Angeles…
The Visceral Company is proud to present the Los Angeles premiere of LOVECRAFT: NIGHTMARE SUITE, featuring six strange stories of monsters, mayhem, and cosmic horrors brought to life through a combination of storytelling, puppetry, and shadow play. All text is taken directly from short fiction, essays, and poetry written by the godfather of modern horror, H.P. Lovecraft. Conceived and directed by Dan Spurgeon (Visceral’s Artistic Director and 2013 LA Weekly Theater Award winner), LOVECRAFT: NIGHTMARE SUITE previously had a successful off-off-Broadway run in New York in 2003. At that time, it was among the first fully realized theatrical productions – if not the first – based directly on Lovecraft’s work and utilizing all elements of stagecraft. LOVECRAFT: NIGHTMARE SUITE features performances of six classic Lovecraft stories: · The Statement of Randolph Carter · The Cats of Ulthar · The Outsider · The Picture in the House · Cool Air · Nyarlathotep

Happy Birthday, Mr. Lovecraft! Some of the presents, so far, that have been given away for Lovecraft’s 123rd Birthday:
* Axel in Germany has today launched the ArkhamInsiders podcast. It’s a new German-language Lovecraft podcast (first edition here) which…
“in the future [plans] to do interviews with international Lovecraft scholars, writers and so on.”
* My own birthday gift is a new The annotated “The Lurking Fear” as a free PDF, with 8,000 words of new scholarly annotations. The PDF is set up so it can be printed as a 46-page booklet on a home laser printer (use the likes of the FinePrint software to print a PDF as booklet-sheets).
* Fangoria has an interview with Bryan Moore, the maker of the Lovecraft Bronze Bust set to be unveiled at NecronomiCon Providence 2013.
