about

All credit goes to H.P. Lovecraft.


I decided to attempt to expand my brand by making audio books of public domain works. So I started with one of H.P. Lovecraft's most famous works. Herbert West Re-Animator. By his own admission the novella was 6 part knock off of other works, including but not limited to Mary Shelly's Frankenstein. Something he written in 1921 and published in 1922 in Home Brew Magazine for a quick buck. However, that knock off, became so successful it spawned many adaptations including but not limited to the Stuart Gordon/Bryan Yuzna movie series that put them and their Herbert West, Jeffery Combs on the map.


The story is a darkly comedic horror, about an unnamed Narrator and his misadventures with fellow university student and mad scientist Herbert West. Whom has struggled to find the secret to bringing the dead back to life.


Now since I am narrating from the original book, safe to issue some warnings. While I've only spotted one slur so far in the first chapter, it does indicate Lovecraft's now infamous Racism. I am only reading what is written and despite my insistence that his racism should be put to bed, because he's dead in real life, nothing I say in this story reflects on who I am as a person. Barring that, enjoy the story.
