Escape was radio's leading anthology series of high-adventure radio dramas, airing on CBS from July 7, 1947 to September 25, 1954. Since the program did not have a regular sponsor like Suspense, it was subjected to frequent schedule shifts and lower production budgets, although Richfield Oil signed on as a sponsor for five months in 1950. Despite these problems, Escape enthralled many listeners during its seven-year run.---------------------------------------------------------------------------Sherlock Holmes Radio Station Live 24/7 Click Here to Listenhttps://live365.com/station/Sherlock-Holmes-Classic-Radio--a91441----------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the correct pronunciation(s) of "Cthulhu." Have there ever been action figures based on Lovecraft characters? Is there any Lovecraft inspired music that you're particularly keen on? Can you recommend any Lovecraft Mythos inspired music? How about good music to read Mythos tales by? Do we have a personal bibliography of what books and materials Lovecraft read and owned? How would you describe the "moral" of Oedipus Rex? What do you think of the theory of Dr. Johan Carlson, an archaeo-astronomer in Maryland, who believes that Lovecraft's image of Cthulhu came from viewing some Precolumbian art of monstrous, clawed Mesoamerican gods squatting on stone blocks, which would have been displayed in New York City while HPL lived there? And since there are no Mesoamerican gods with the head of an octopus, where do you think the image of Cthulhu's head came from? I think that HPL might have borrowed the image of H. G. Wells Martians. In Algernon Blackwood's "Ancient Sorceries" a traveler stops at a village in France and slowly discovers that he has a strange and sinister link to the weird inhabitants of the town, despite the fact that, to his knowledge, he has never been there before. How much was Lovecraft's "The Shadow over Innsmouth" inspired by Blackwood's story? And who inspired Blackwood? Please talk about The Yellow King, Lovecraft's relationship with this book, and how you feel Chambers compares and contrasts with the Old Gent? Has anyone expanded on or referenced the dream/letter 'The Very Old Folk'? I've found a few Sword and Sandal Mythos tales, chief among them the works of Richard Tierney. Do you have any other leads to authors who mix tentacles and togas?
