On TUBI, I watched the early 2000s version of the "Dunwich Horror" starring Coombs as Wilbur. It was campy, but weird enough. Dean Stockwell, who played Wilbur in the 1970 version, also starred.
1) That might be explained by the hold West's mesmeric personality had on his psyche; 2) It could be conjectured that the author did go mad at the end and maybe even killed West himself, in a way atoning for years of subservience. 🧐
Herbert West is the most genuinely creepy story i have ever read. The thought of the escaped demons stalking the fields and lanes just on the edge of town
Thanks a ton for the subtitles! As someone hard of hearing (but not totally deaf) it makes a huge difference in how much I get out of these wonderful readings.
If it wasn’t for this story, I probably wouldn’t have the career that I have today. And once I get the subject subdued on the table I’m going to retire for the evening and listen to my favorite HP Lovecraft story.
A fantastic narration of one of the great horror stories. What a fantastic job. The St. Elois crater... Thanks for this gem! I listened to it twice back to back. I'll be divorced by Christmas if this rate of release keeps up! Ha!
I grew up with the films and years later I discovered the original serial. I appreciate the fact the films do pay a lot of respect to the original. I'd really like to see a new mini series based off Reanimator.
I wonder if Ian Gordon, Creeps Mcpasta, Dr. Creepen von Pasta, Otis Jiry, etc. realize how much they mean to those of us who go to bed alone? They may never know how many friends they have, how much they are appreciated, how thier voice sooth and entertain and to us, they are the voice of friendship. Gentlemen, and at least one lady, thank you. And Warren, your sacrifice for our nightly stories will never be forgotten. RIP. PS. Mr. Gordon please do " The Dweller in Darkness" and 'Ithaqua." I know August Derleth was a crumb but those stories are really, really good Mythos stories TYVM.
Is that you Warren? I thought you were dead! Oh youre back I see, wow Im really late! (since this seems to be a going trend right now, thought Id pitch in my two bits.)
I'll skip one this since I'm already as familiar with it as Acorn-electron is with The Statement of Randolph Carter. But for anyone who isn't this will be a real treat.
Thank you so much! I was listening multiple times this story, on your channel, few days ago. Would you like to try "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath"? I know it's a hard task but it would be so captivating! I really love your work and wish you the better! 🇨🇦 Edit: Thanks for the subtitles too!
He already has and it's one of his best recordings, just search for it. It should be in a playlist called "dream-cycle" if you also want to hear the rest of the Randolph Carter stories. In any case, you're in for a treat.
the soul is hardly a myth... after all, if the soul exits the body on death then perhaps the violence exhibited on the resurrected is perhaps natural the result of the body absent of the mediating conscience of one's soul. what a creature is like when entirely upon instinct...

Imagine the computer game this could make! It would have boss fights with all those reanimated corpses as well as the stealthy procuring of bodies under cover of night, and chemical research that would require extreme precision 🤩 and the character of West would progress from a curious intellectual driven by a desire to find the source of life to a ghoulish maniac.

❤everything is great
Euhm question, the audio on Spotify and youtube is really fucking weird at the moment
@@BringNightmares Weird how?
This man single handedly carries me to bed every night, and when he doesnt, he calms my day with the most enticing stories ive ever heard
You fool! Warren is in bed! 😜
Don't tell his wife
Yep, his voice is my companion on many a sleepless nights...
I want Ian to psychically carry me to bed every night and tell me enticing stories too. What Patreon level does that require?
Same
I just watched the Reanimator movie last night thanks Ian😊
One of my favs!
Loved the movie. I've never listened to this story and I'm sure it will be outstanding.
I've heard the movie is very different in tone - a horror comedy of sorts? How would you compare the two?
What a wonderful story to calm down to.
I can't help but imagine Herbert West as Jeffrey Combs...
There’s an audio book of this read by him. It’s absolutely amazing
On TUBI, I watched the early 2000s version of the "Dunwich Horror" starring Coombs as Wilbur.
It was campy, but weird enough.
Dean Stockwell, who played Wilbur in the 1970 version, also starred.
There's no competing with Combs!
Nice to get a good clean read. This story might be the best of Lovecraft's non-mythos horror, certainly high in the count if not. Thank you.
This has always been one of my favorites
Love this story, love your voice and your talent
A classic that I never get tired of thank you 😊
I really find this to be one of Lovecraft's creepiest and most unapologetically vicious stories... I love it 😢❤
I can’t help but think about how the storyteller is kinda just along for the ride, when he is the biggest accomplice and enabler! 😂
I noticed that too, the more he retells events at the start of each chapter, the less responsibility he takes
@@GothicBarbarian far beyond aiding and abetting! 😹 procurement of the freshly dead…. No problem brow! Maybe they are sexually connected
1) That might be explained by the hold West's mesmeric personality had on his psyche; 2) It could be conjectured that the author did go mad at the end and maybe even killed West himself, in a way atoning for years of subservience. 🧐
@ interesting! Never thought of that. Wasn’t just about west’s blonde hair…. Maybe he is himself one of his creations! Good thinking there. Like it.
Herbert West is the most genuinely creepy story i have ever read. The thought of the escaped demons stalking the fields and lanes just on the edge of town
sends a warm chill down the spine, doesn’t it?
I was reanimated! Great work again, Ian.
Lovecraft has some crazy material. I love it. And of course, you narrate it as best as one can find.
Awesome!
This is fantastic work Ian cheers and thankyou so much xo you have the best storytelling voice :)
"Six Shots by Midnight" is probably how I'm gonna spend New Year's Eve this year. 🥃
I love this story. Thanks for covering it.
Thank you g Man 😁😊
I’m down to listen to this one again.
Best audio and narration!
Thanks a ton for the subtitles! As someone hard of hearing (but not totally deaf) it makes a huge difference in how much I get out of these wonderful readings.
I don't often commend Lovecraft for subtlety, but the dean gets more depth here than in the movie.
Cool! I'm off to get my popcorn now!
I'm four hours late for the show so I'm catching the....souree!
Thank you for the video!
You have a fantastic talent for this, and I'm grateful you share it, thank you so much
Fantastic update and a great reading.
Thank you.
Great job Ian. Im a fan of your audio drama of this story but its nice to get an updated read of just the story itself too.
Thanks again!
Right on! Good on you man! Exactly what was needed. 🧑🔬🧟
If it wasn’t for this story, I probably wouldn’t have the career that I have today. And once I get the subject subdued on the table I’m going to retire for the evening and listen to my favorite HP Lovecraft story.
A concerning thought, Winston...!
@@HorrorBabble 👍🏻😂
@@HorrorBabble btw, Great readings and channel
Love Lovecraft 🖤
Really appreciate the effort, Ian.
Thank you!
A fantastic narration of one of the great horror stories. What a fantastic job.
The St. Elois crater...
Thanks for this gem! I listened to it twice back to back.
I'll be divorced by Christmas if this rate of release keeps up! Ha!
Excellent
You have the most soothing voice
I'm glad the voice works for you.
This is a excellent story I have not ever read any h p lovecraft
YES MY FAV!!!!! THANK YOU
Yay!!!! Thank you!!
one of my favorites!

Ya love to see it
Is that you Warren? I thought you were dead! Oh youre back I see, wow Im really late! (since this seems to be a going trend right now, thought Id pitch in my two bits.)
Great yarn
But, I just saw Warren last week and he looked great!
"... a snow-white, terrible, cylindrical object terminating in a tiny hand." 😱
I'll skip one this since I'm already as familiar with it as Acorn-electron is with The Statement of Randolph Carter.
But for anyone who isn't this will be a real treat.
Thank you so much!

I'm planning to re-recording Dream-Quest at some point. It sounds rather dated now.
🥳🍿Thank you so much!!@@HorrorBabble
@@paulandreotti1639 Thank you; it was a real treat indeed!
"you fool! Warren is dead!"
Best open ever, and inside joke
the soul is hardly a myth... after all, if the soul exits the body on death then perhaps the violence exhibited on the resurrected is perhaps natural the result of the body absent of the mediating conscience of one's soul. what a creature is like when entirely upon instinct...
Good idea for a book.
As I was here so early, I was wondering how Warren is?
YOU FOOOOOOL!!!!
Wasn't this one of those that some places didn't want to print because they called it obscene, as being unnecessarily shocking and gruesome or something like that?
It's a good one though, ofc. Thanks.
Ah, the timid folks of yesteryear...
I wish for a mulligan on the film, and then I don’t.
Hello, Ian. I love you, bro
Imagine the computer game this could make! It would have boss fights with all those reanimated corpses as well as the stealthy procuring of bodies under cover of night, and chemical research that would require extreme precision 🤩 and the character of West would progress from a curious intellectual driven by a desire to find the source of life to a ghoulish maniac.
So then, should we have Dr. West try reanimating Warren, or...?
🧟♂️🧟♀️🧟♂️
that has already been tried. Unfortunately, Herbert Wests formula was not quite what it should be at that point. Mine however.
I bring them back routinely
Damn look at your sub count! Come so far
Slow but steady growth!
You fool! Warren is dead!
Herbert West: I have been summoned!
8th
Awesome seeing you here. Hope you're doing great. I sincerely wish I downloaded all your videos, thank you for making them in the first place!
Almost first
“You fool! Warren is dead,”
“Bugger”.

Is this a true story?
💀
Ik ik it's a old story but geez you can tell it was written by a yt male, but still a good story
Yeah, the idea to remake this in modern time for the movie was genius, H.P. Lovecraft was one racist ass racist.
