Zwar sind weder Isa noch Jascha bisher in Kur gegangen, aber wenn es mal so weit ist, wissen wir genau, wie wir uns erholen: mit extremem Cave Diving! Die gleiche ungesunde Idee hat auch Dr. James Hardcastle, unser Protagonist in Das Grauen im Blue-John-Stollen von Arthur Conan Doyle. Ob das so eine gute Idee ist? Zumal sich in dem gemiedenen Schacht eine ziemlich biestige Kreatur aufhalten soll, die in mondlosen Nächten nicht nur Schafe reißt ... Begleitet uns ins malerische Derbyshire und lernt Doyle einmal ganz ohne Sherlock Holmes kennen. VIel Spaß mit der Folge! --- In der nächsten Folge lesen wir die Kapitel 1 und 2 von Schatten über Innsmouth (The Shadow over Innsmouth) von H. P. Lovecraft. Hier findet ihr eine kostenlose, digitale Version auf Deutsch: https://www.bastiancleve.com/wp-content/uploads/Schatten_ueber_Innsmouth.pdf Und hier geht's zum englischen Original: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/73181/pg73181-images.html --- Wenn ihr möchtet, könnt ihr euch auch schon auf unser darauffolgendes Projekt vorbereiten: Das Haus an der Grenze (The House on the Borderland) von William Hope Hodgson. Wenn ihr die Geschichte auf Deutsch lesen wollt, müsst ihr euch leider eine analoge Ausgabe kaufen. Das englische Original gibt es aber hier online: https://archive.org/details/william-hope-hodgson_the-house-on-the-borderland --- Unterstütz uns auf Steady für noch mehr Content abseits der Literatur

Pese a su impagable legado de relatos y novelas de terror, William Hope Hodgson solo ha conocido una adaptación cinematográfica. Y en el contexto más insospechado: las producciones de ciencia ficción y efectos especiales de la Toho en el Japón de los sesenta, un filón que abrió la primera película de «Godzilla». El director de esta última, Ishiro Honda, se encargaría también de llevar a la pantalla un relato de Hodgson sobre una pareja de náufragos que acaba en una isla donde prolifera un hongo maldito y que los termina por convertir en monstruos. De ahí nace «Matango», uno de los proyectos más atípicos de Honda y la Toho. Donde el escritor inglés vio fatalidad y soledad, el cineasta encontró la perfecta metáfora del ser humano posmoderno, su individualismo atroz y su necesidad de evasión de la realidad. En este podcast, analizamos tanto la película como el relato para ahondar en sus bases comunes y sus divergencias. Tras los micros, Miguel Muñoz Garnica, José Luis Forte y Lourdes Esqueda Verano.

William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land (1912) is a staggering piece of early weird fiction — an immense, apocalyptic vision set millions of years in the future, after the sun has died. Humanity survives in the Last Redoubt, a titanic metal pyramid lit by internal power, surrounded by eternal darkness and monstrous forces that hunger for the light within. The protagonist, a telepathic man of that far-future world, senses the spirit of his long-dead love calling from another human fortress — the Lesser Redoubt — now besieged in the black wilderness. Driven by love and duty, he ventures into the Night Land: a desolate, monster-haunted plain where the Earth's surface is stalked by “Watchers,” “Silent Ones,” and colossal horrors that defy comprehension. It's equal parts cosmic horror, doomed romance, and proto-science-fantasy. Hodgson's prose is archaic, deliberately medieval in tone, which makes the book feel like an illuminated manuscript describing a dream of the end of time. Modern readers often find it dense, but it rewards endurance — this is an early ancestor of Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and dark science fiction from Dune to Dark Souls.

William Hope Hodgson's The Night Land (1912) is a staggering piece of early weird fiction — an immense, apocalyptic vision set millions of years in the future, after the sun has died. Humanity survives in the Last Redoubt, a titanic metal pyramid lit by internal power, surrounded by eternal darkness and monstrous forces that hunger for the light within. The protagonist, a telepathic man of that far-future world, senses the spirit of his long-dead love calling from another human fortress — the Lesser Redoubt — now besieged in the black wilderness. Driven by love and duty, he ventures into the Night Land: a desolate, monster-haunted plain where the Earth's surface is stalked by “Watchers,” “Silent Ones,” and colossal horrors that defy comprehension. It's equal parts cosmic horror, doomed romance, and proto-science-fantasy. Hodgson's prose is archaic, deliberately medieval in tone, which makes the book feel like an illuminated manuscript describing a dream of the end of time. Modern readers often find it dense, but it rewards endurance — this is an early ancestor of Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and dark science fiction from Dune to Dark Souls.

In Ireland, a newly purchased castle unsettles its American owner. He is wealthy, engaged to a local woman, and certain that jealous countrymen mean him harm. What truly threatens the household is a particular room that fills at night with a dangerous, sustained whistling that rises and falls like breath. Doors quiver; servants keep away. Carnacki is summoned with his lamps, his electric scepticism and his knowledge of spirit manifestations. He investigates, seals the room, warns no one to enter and admits himself stumped. At least at first! “The Whistling Room” was first published in 1910 and later collected in Carnacki, the Ghost-Finder (1913).UK publisher: Eveleigh Nash. William Hope Hodgson (1877–1918) was an English writer of sea horrors and visionary weird fiction.A former merchant sailor, he served in the First World War and was killed near Ypres.

Perfect for this incredible classic from the great William Hope Hodgson. First published in 1908, this installment to the genre of classic horror is legendary. H.P.
