Illustrated Short Story: 'The Other Gods' by H.P Lovecraft [Audiobook]

Welcome! Today, we're checking out 'The Other Gods' by H.P. Lovecraft, a tale where ambition meets ancient dread. This story ventures into the mountains of unknown gods, following Barzai the Wise, who seeks secrets better left hidden. As he climbs higher, expecting wisdom, he finds a terrifying truth instead. Lovecraft crafts a chilling reminder of the dangers of overreaching pride and the dark mysteries that lurk beyond our understanding. If you're in for a quick journey to the peak of cosmic horror, 'The Other Gods' is your climb.

Earth's Gods were trying to protect us from the Outer Gods and Great Old Ones.

That’s canon because the Greek gods are in love craft

I find lovecraft so interesting. Great reading

[@E.Norma_Scock]

Great channel, keep the music just turn it down and slow down a little every one listens to these to relax....this is critique with the upmost respect because a few minor changes and this channel is a titan ....I'm subscription now

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you so much for the feedback! I am always happy to hear your thoughts 😊 I was actually wondering if the music was too low! 😂 Going to turn it down more for future uploads! Do you think the narration should slow down a bit?

[@E.Norma_Scock]

@@BookWorldsVisualized just a bit but other than that love it

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

I will see what I can do! Thank you for taking the time to help me improve! 😊

[@trev269]

The pace is perfect.

[@E.Norma_Scock]

@@trev269 no it's not trev your opinion is absolutely wrong in fact it's absurd and I'm personally offended by it
Lol jk just kidding it's a matter of opinion even if she didn't show down a little still fabulous narration plus I only meant a little and I've read out loud it's not that easy to just slow down from your natural pace

[@user-ok2gr2vw9r]

First read this back in the 80s. You've not just done a good job....You've been audacious and really creative! Have WORKED the a.i.
Brilliant job.😊

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you so much! You have no idea how much that means to me 🥰 I have been really into Lovecraft for a while now, there is just something beautiful about the way he writes 😊

[@user-ok2gr2vw9r]

@@BookWorldsVisualized people tend to overlook how lyrical and beautiful his writing is. Big influence on my own 🧐 stuff. If you want to listen to some of it...I would try "Wandering Oscar" on a channel called "the horror story corner". Enjoy....you will have to spot the rats in the walls reference. It's not hard.

Yes, when you get these rythmic and lyrical texts it becomes so beautiful. Awesome, I will check it out Wandering Oscar right away! 😁

[@tonygriego6382]

Great reading!

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you so much!

[@mikeseymour1792]

Thanks for the read. Most satisfying.

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you so much! Really appreciate the feedback 😊 let me know if there is another story you would like!

[@danielgurzynski7633]

Curious to know if thats a real narrator or an AI voice.

[@EgoEroTergum]

Very good; I like the narrator you picked! ❤

[@oceanwater6887]

Great!!! Please make an option with quieter music

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you! Others have also asked that the music be lowered a bit 😅 My future uploads will have quieter music, thanks for the feedback! That helps a lot! 😊

[@paullevine1813]

A good read , sorry you tube has ruined your tale with so many ads all the way through the story. Not fair to do this during the clip as they already bother us with ads before & after but they feel it nessasary to wreck eveyones clips . SAD!!

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thank you! And wow, I didn't even realise they did that! 😔 Hopefully I can get to 1000 subscribers soon, that way I can remove them...

[@zeframmann1641]

Who are the artists?

[@SoHanged]

The drawings were created by an AI, probably Midjourney.

[@sirbig8292]

"Illustrated, more like AI-strated and AI-narrated"
Not like that's the worst thing ever but at least mention it in the title or at least the description.

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

Thanks for the feedback! I didn't really think it mattered that much so I didn't mention it. I will mention it from now on 😊

[@sirbig8292]

@@BookWorldsVisualized That's good to hear.

[@joechip4822]

The days where anybody even cares what is AI generated and what not are already counted. I don't say this is a good, or a bad thing though... My main take on this is, that many a illustrations I wished someone had drawn or painted from books or stories I love simply don't exist and nobody cared to create them. Now I can create them myself. And this, for me, is a very good thing...

[@sirbig8292]

@@joechip4822 While that's fair, I still think one should at least mention it in the description. Just like one would credit an artist when using their work.

[@vanomzero]

would have been better if a man read this, this is unwatchable

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

You don't like a womans voice? 😅

[@saiodiaspaladin3391]

Wat a great ironic comment since the voice fits so well, if u want a dude whispering ur ear I’d be happy to

[@jankarieben1071]

Translation: some things we weren’t meant to know, and still other things we’re best not knowing.

[@BookWorldsVisualized]

I think that is a good interpretation! Sometimes there are things we are better off not knowing about...
