Summary
A meteorite from cosmic space falls to earth on a backwoods Massachusetts farm. The space rock possesses peculiar qualities and mystifies even the brightest university scientists. But it soon becomes clear that this is no ordinary meteor, as its otherworldly influence unleashes a creeping wave of despair, death, and decay into the land and its inhabitants.

Late Halloween listen
A very well preformed audio play.
Great acting, clear and understandable voice and great background effects.
As for the story, well it's Lovecraft. I admit I haven't read the original story I just know the plot from a summary if there were any of Lovecraft's infamous dated views or elements cut out their not here as far as I can tell.

So much fun!
I love Lovecraft, and these guys do a great job creating a radio-show feel. It is a fun, quick listen. This isn’t one of my favorite Lovecraft stories, but only because it is more sci-fi than horror feeling to me.

Brilliantly Done.
This is a really well done dramatisation and not a simple reading of the text, done into speech by the HP Lovecraft Historical Society (www.hplhs.org). It's extremely well done and fully captures the depth and existential horror of Lovecraft's original tale. We are mere playthings of a universe that is completely indifferent to the fate of individual humanity and humanity in general. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.

Always my top favorite Lovecraftian story
I've read the original story and watched Nicholas Cage's movie, but this is honestly my top favorite adaptation. I love the radio program atmosphere and the acting, this was my introduction to the H.P Lovecraft Historical Society and consider myself a fan now. Very good work, would listen to a third time!
