Scientists As The Protagonists – Short Stories
"Scientists are only interested in facts. Short story writers are only interested in fiction and how it can change one set of circumstances to another. Experiments in words may be common to both but when the scientist is our protagonist the journey can suddenly become quite disturbing.Join H P Lovecraft, Arthur Conan Doyle, Nathaniel Hawthorne and many others as they put scientists into the driving seat of stories that often have surprising outcomes. 1 - Stories with The Scientists As Protagonists - An Introduction2 - Herbert West - Re-Animator - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft3 - Herbert West - Re-Animator - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft4 - When The World Screamed by Arthur Conan Doyle5 - A Thousand Deaths by Jack London6 - The Star by W F Harvey7 - The Birthmark by Nathaniel Hawthorne8 - A Tale of Negative Gravity by Frank R Stockton9 - The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell"

"Science fiction is in many ways positive, uplifting and a vision of where we are headed. But in this volume our classic authors including Lovecraft, Wells, Hawthorne and others reveal its darker cousin; Horror. Now these malevolent terrors have made up their minds that blending themselves with Science Fiction might make their impact even more awful and frightening for us to bear.1 - Classic Sci-Fi Stories - An Introduction2 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft3 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft4 - The Crystal Egg by H G Wells5 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 1 by Robert Louis Stevenson6 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 2 by Robert Louis Stevenson7 - The Operation by Violet Hunt8 - The Blue Laboratory by L T Meade9 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 1 by Nathaniel Hawthorne10 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 2 by Nathaniel Hawthorne11 - Moxon's Master by Ambrose Bierce12 - The Voice in the Night by William Hope Hodgson13 - Cool Air by H P Lovecraft14 - Polaris by H P Lovecraft15 - The Color Out of Space by H P Lovecraft16 - Carnivorine by Lucy Hamilton Hooper17 - The Secret of the Scaffold by Auguste Villiers de I'Ísle-Adam18 - The Rats in the Walls by H P Lovecraft19 - A Thousand Deaths by Jack London20 - Re-Animator - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft21 - Re-Animator - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft"

Stories About Mad Scientists Who Aren't Victor Frankenstein
"In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit. Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.1 - Stories About Mad Scientists Who Aren't Victor Frankenstein - An Introduction2 - Herbert West - Reanimator - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft3 - Herbert West - Reanimator - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft4 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 1 by Robert Louis Stevenson5 - The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde - Part 2 by Robert Louis Stevenson6 - Doctor Heidegger's Experiment by Nathaniel Hawthorne7 - Carnivorine by Lucy Hamilton Hooper8 - The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley9 - The Man Without a Body by Edward Page Mitchell10 - The Facts in the Case of Monsieur Valdemar by Edgar Allan Poe11 - A Thousand Deaths by Jack London12 - A Diagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce13 - The Birthmark by Nathaniel Hawthorne14 - Lost Hearts by M R James15 - The Moaning Lily by Emma Vane16 - The Blue Laboratory by L T Meade17 - Cool Air by H P Lovecraft18 - The Love Germ by Constance Cotterell19 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 1 by Nathaniel Hawthorne20 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 2 by Nathaniel Hawthorne"

13 Unlucky Tales of H P Lovecraft
"Howard Phillips Lovecraft is among the greatest American masters of fantasy and the supernatural. Born in 1890, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, his health was uncertain from childhood and he led a sheltered early life. His semi-invalidism enabled him to read omnivorously, and as a shy imaginative child he began to invent what would in his adult life become a whole macabre fantastic world of his own, peopled by creatures out of his own weird imagination. As an adult he was retiring, almost a recluse. Tall, thin and pale, but with bright alert eyes, he was much given to wandering his native city in the dark hours of the night, and he became a devoted student of its antiquities. Although he began to write early he had nothing published until he was in his twenties. He set many of his stories around the imaginary town of Arkham, and invented an entire mythology of his own, its core being the demoniac cult of Cthulhu, based on the lore or legend that the world was at one time inhabited by another race who, in practising black magic, lost their foothold or were expelled, yet live on outside, ever ready to take possession of this earth again.Since his early death in 1937 his stories have continued to attract attention and praise from an ever-growing audience.1 - 13 Unlucky Tales of H P Lovecraft - An Introduction2 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft3 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft4 - The Thing On the Doorstep by H P Lovecraft5 - The Rats in the Walls by H P Lovecraft6 - The Cats of Ulthar by H P Lovecraft7 - Cool Air by H P Lovecraft8 - The Color Out of Space by H P Lovecraft9 - The Moon Bog by H P Lovecraft10 - The Horror at Red Hook by H P Lovecraft11 - The Lurking Fear by H P Lovecraft12 - The Picture In The House by H P Lovecraft13 - The Music of Erich Zann by H P Lovecraft14 - Pickman's Model by H P Lovecraft15 - Herbert West - Reanimator - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft16 - Herbert West - Reanimator - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft"

The Top 10 Short Stories - The 20th Century - Horror
"Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author's brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted 'Top Tens' across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions - Why that story? Why that author? The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made. If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. In this volume Horror and its evil intents try to burrow into our heads and cavort around as only demons, monsters, phantoms and ghosts can do. They probably have other partners and friends too. And you, sitting there all alone, and listening..... oh dear. 1 - The Top 10 Short Stories - 20th Century - Horror - An Introduction 2 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 1 by H P Lovecraft 3 - The Call of Cthulhu - Part 2 by H P Lovecraft 4 - The Horror of the Heights by Arthur Conan Doyle 5 - Lost Hearts by M R James 6 - The Music on the Hill by Saki 7 - The Waxworks by A M Burrage 8 - Caterpillars by E F Benson 9 - The Novel of the White Powder by Arthur Machen 10 - The Voice in the Night by William Hope Hodgson 11 - August Heat by W F Harvey 12 - For the Blood is the Life by F Marion Crawford"

"H P Lovecraft, even the name has a sliver of the night about it. Born in 1890 in Providence, Rhode Island he was a prodigious youth but a sickly one. Raised mainly by his Grandfather and Aunts at 14 he contemplated suicide on the death of his grandfather and the crushing financial blow that brought to himself and his mother. A set of literary spats in a newspaper brought him attention away from his poetry writings. But until the last decade of his life the works for which we is so well know did not arrive. That last decade, writing again in Providence was prolific but with little income his life downgraded rented house by rented house and in 1936, often malnourished he was diagnosed with cancer and succumbed to it the following year."

He Has done much radio drama, and his long list of television appearances include Colditz and Dr Who. Among his many films are Star Wars, Cry Freedom, A Bridge Too Far and Batman."
