H. P. Lovecraft is arguably the most important horror writer of the twentieth century. Culled from his 1927 essay "Supernatural Horror in Literature," Lovecraft acknowledges those authors and stories that he feels are the very finest the horror field has to offer, including Washington Irving, Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, Bram Stoker, Robert Louis Stevenson, Guy de Maupassant, Ambrose Bierce, and Arthur Conan Doyle. This chilling collection includes twenty works, each prefaced by Lovecraft's own opinions and insights in each author's work, as well as Henry James' wonderfully atmospheric short novel, The Turn of the Screw. For every fan of modern horror, here is an opportunity to rediscover the origins of the genre with some of most terrifying stories ever imagined.

Stephen Jones is one of Britain’s most acclaimed horror anthologists and winner of several World Fantasy Awards, numerous Horror Writers Association Bram Stoker Awards, and several International Horror Guild Awards. He lives in London.

Bronson Pinchot, Audible’s Narrator of the Year for 2010, has won Publishers Weekly Listen-Up Awards, AudioFile Earphones Awards, Audible’s Book of the Year Award, and Audie Awards for several audiobooks, including Matterhorn, Wise Blood, Occupied City, and The Learners. A magna cum laude graduate of Yale, he is an Emmy- and People’s Choice-nominated veteran of movies, television, and Broadway and West End shows. His performance of Malvolio in Twelfth Night was named the highlight of the entire two-year Kennedy Center Shakespeare Festival by the Washington Post. He attended the acting programs at Shakespeare & Company and Circle-in-the-Square, logged in well over 200 episodes of television, starred or costarred in a bouquet of films, plays, musicals, and Shakespeare on Broadway and in London, and developed a passion for Greek revival architecture.

Steven Crossley has won more than a dozen AudioFile Earphones Awards and was nominated for the prestigious Audie Award. He has appeared in numerous theater, television, film, and radio dramas.

Davina Porter has recorded more than 100 audiobooks in nearly 25 years, and she's garnered numerous Earphones awards.  In 2006, she was an Audie winner for Best Female Narrator, and she was named Best Narrator for Inspirational Literature in 2004.  Davina has read everything from classics like Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina to titles such as Diana Gabaldon's A Breath of Snow and Ashes and Susanna Clarke's The Ladies of Grace Adieu and Other Stories.  She has also appeared on stage at the Vineyard Playhouse and The Square One Theater, among others.

Madeleine Lambert received her MFA in acting from Brown University and Trinity Rep. Her performances at Trinity Repertory Company include Shelby in Steel Magnolias and Belle in A Christmas Carol. Madeleine graduated with honors from Duke University with majors in theater studies and English and a minor in French. She attended the School at Steppenwolf in Chicago.

Mark Peckham is an actor and director based in Rhode Island. In addition to working with Trinity Rep, Virginia Stage Co., and many Boston-area theaters, he was the voice of Joseph Smith in the award-winning PBS documentary American Prophet with Gregory Peck.
