A struggling writer's obsession with forbidden knowledge leads him to a discovery no human mind was meant to grasp. One reckless act opens a doorway to something vast, unseen, and utterly indifferent to human life. The Shambler From The Stars by Robert Bloch. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Haven't mentioned Rise lately, the all in one wellness drink and the only product I have ever found to get rid of diabetic neuropathy pain. If you have neuropathy you know how awful it is. My pain was so intense it used to wake me up in the middle of the night and I couldn't go back to sleep.Not anymore. That's why I take Rise every day. If it didn't work for me, I wouldn't recommend it. One scoop a day, with over 50 natural ingredients, helps me stay energized, focused, and pain free and when you are almost 67, like I am that isn't easy. It supports my immune system, my digestion, my mood, and even my joints.Since starting Rise, I've been pain free, felt more alive and more ready to embrace the day. It makes a difference for me.There's a link in the description, or visit lostscifi.com and click on Rise to see what it can do for you.Rise - http://Lostscifi.com/riseI don't usually do this, but today we're making an exception. I want to talk about the next story on the podcast—not today's episode, but the one that follows.When this story was first published, readers flooded the magazine with letters of protest. They called the author cold. They called the story cruel. They argued it should never have been written the way it was.Decades later, that same story is considered a cornerstone of hard science fiction. It's taught, debated, and regularly included on lists of the most important science-fiction stories ever written.You don't want to miss this one.Robert Bloch returns today with a story that first appeared on page 368 in Weird Tales magazine in September 1935, The Shambler From The Stars by Robert Bloch.…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A routine emergency mission becomes an unforgiving test of physics, law, and human conscience.

A young man plots a quiet inheritance in a decaying waterfront mansion haunted by whispers, rituals, and an uncle who knows far too much. When murder collides with forbidden knowledge, the price of impatience becomes far more than death. The Grip of Death by Robert Bloch. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Another newsletter will be sent out in a few hours, free sci-fi and other fun stuff straight to your inbox every week. There is a link in the description and on LostSciFi.comNewsletter - https://lostscifi.com/free/How did we release more than 460 episodes without narrating a story by Robert Bloch? That oversight ends today. Born in Chicago in 1917, Bloch is best remembered for Psycho, the novel that became Alfred Hitchcock's iconic film—but that was only one chapter in a remarkable career.Bloch wrote more than 30 novels and hundreds of short stories, publishing his first tale at just 17. His love of the strange began early: at age ten, when his aunt offered to buy him any magazine he wanted, he chose the August 1927 issue of Weird Tales. Years later, speaking at the First World Fantasy Convention in 1975, Bloch recalled waking early on release day and sprinting to a tobacco-and-magazine shop to buy the latest issue—sometimes sneaking it home under his coat if the cover was especially scandalous.Today's story didn't appear in Weird Tales, but it is unquestionably a weird tale. From Strange Stories, December 1939, turn to page 85—The Grip of Death by Robert Bloch.…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A struggling writer's obsession with forbidden knowledge leads him to a discovery no human mind was meant to grasp.

No caven mi tumba (Dig Me No Grave) es un relato de terror del escritor norteamericano Robert E. Howard (1906-1936), publicado originalmente en la edición de febrero de 1937 en la revista Weird Tales, y luego reeditado por Arkham House en la antología de 1963: El hombre oscuro y otros relatos (The Dark Man and Others). No caven mi tumba, relata la historia de John Conrad y el profesor Kirawan, dos hombre que resuelven pasar la noche en la casa de John Grimlan, un afamado y temido ocultista que acaba de morir recientemente en circunstancias poco claras, y quien ha dejado una serie de misteriosas instrucciones que ambos se proponen seguir. SPOILERS La biblioteca, naturalmente, es la habitación más peligrosa de esta casa embrujada; repleta de murciélagos, velas, corrientes de aire frío y, quizás lo más inquietante, un cadáver sobre la mesa de la biblioteca. Allí, los visitantes leen las peculiares instrucciones dejadas por Grimlan, donde refiere la disposición de sus restos terrenales. No caven mi tumba pertenece a los Mitos de Cthulhu de H.P. Lovecraft, y contiene una gran cantidad de referencias a este ciclo, como la presencia de Yog-Sothoth, Kathulos (Cthulhu), Yuggoth, y los Antiguos. Si bien no se trata de una secuela, No caven mi tumba comparte algunos personajes con otros relato de Robert E. Howard: Los hijos de la noche (The Children of the Night), donde el profesor Kirawan y John Conrad encabezan una animada tertulia que recuerda las hazañas de una antigua raza de humanos que logró vencer a los reptilianos. Lo más interesante de estos dos relatos, a los que podemos sumar: El pueblo de la oscuridad (People of the Dark) y La gente pequeña (The Little People), es que en ellos se percibe la intención de Robert E. Howard de crear una línea alternativa para los Mitos de Cthulhu, donde los reptilianos ocupan un lugar preponderante como la gran raza antigua que luchó contra los seres humanos para propagar sus rasgos genéticos y, de este modo, perpetuar sus odiosas prácticas religiosas en las generaciones posteriores.

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour !Un seul nom : Lovecraft. Difficile d'être un geek en France dans les années 1980 et 1990 sans lire les nouvelles de cet auteur, si possible en pleine nuit, à la lumière d'une lampe de chevet afin d'être emporté par ses folles visions. Et encore aujourd'hui, presque 90 ans après sa mort, c'est galère de ne pas voir que Lovecraft exerce une énorme… oui, une ÉNORME influence sur la culture pop', de Stephen King en passant par Batman ! Oui, parce que l'asile d'Arkham de Gotham City porte le nom d'une ville fictionnelle inventée par Lovecraft… Et ce n'est qu'un exemple, sur des centaines de références cachées, dans des dizaines et des dizaines de romans, BD, films, et jeux vidéos ! Bonne écoute !

A remote New England village. Dark rumours swirl among its lonely hills. Whispers of strange rites, of a family line touched by shadows, haunt the woods and starlit nights. Something stirs where the old stones lie, and the boundary between the known and the unseen begins to thin. In my Halloween tradition, the tale chosen is “The Dunwich Horror”—a story rich in mystery, and alive with Lovecraft's trademark unease. First published in Weird Tales, April 1929. Collected in "The Outsider and Others" by Arkham House, 1939. H.P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was an American writer whose cosmic horror stories explored the limits of knowledge and the fragility of sanity. His influenced echoes through horror, science fiction, and popular culture to this day.

A weary King Kull gazes into the forbidden mirrors of Tuzun Thune, seeking wisdom beyond mortal grasp. But in those shifting reflections lies a peril far greater than any enemy he's ever faced. The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune by Robert E. Howard. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Quick heads-up: our brand-new Lost Sci-Fi Weekly newsletter launches this Monday, October 27. Tap the link in the description or visit LostSciFi.com to get it first.Newsletter - https://lostscifi.com/freeBefore there was Conan, there was King Kull—a brooding, introspective warrior-king from the ancient, drowned kingdom of Valusia. Created by Robert E. Howard, Kull first appeared in The Shadow Kingdom in 1929, one of the earliest true “sword and sorcery” tales.Howard wrote only a handful of complete Kull stories, but they stand among his most thoughtful and dreamlike works. The best known are The Shadow Kingdom, Kings of the Night, and today's story, The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune—a haunting story about the peril of looking too deeply into one's own reflection.You might remember the 1997 movie Kull the Conqueror — starring Kevin Sorbo (of Hercules fame) — which is the only movie explicitly featuring Kull.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! "Algo Desde Arriba" (Something from Above) es un relato de ciencia ficción del escritor norteamericano Donald Wandrei (1908-1987), publicado originalmente en la edición de diciembre de 1930 de la revista Weird Tales, y luego reeditado por August Derleth en la antología de 1949: El otro lado de la luna (The Other Side of the Moon). Es tal vez uno de los cuentos de Donald Wandrei menos conocidos, relata la historia de Lars Loberg, un hombre cuya granja aparece cubierta por una extraña nieve roja, fétida, con propiedades completamente desconocidas... y probablemente de origen orgánico.
