About this audiobook

"The Call of Cthulhu" is a classic horror short story written by H.P. Lovecraft. It was first published in the pulp magazine Weird Tales in 1928. The story is a foundational work in the Cthulhu Mythos, a shared fictional universe that Lovecraft created, characterized by cosmic horror and ancient, malevolent entities. Is presented as a found manuscript written by the protagonist, Francis Wayland Thurston. It is a tale of cosmic horror that explores the awakening of the ancient and monstrous entity known as Cthulhu. The narrative unfolds through the accounts of different characters, revealing a cult that worships Cthulhu and the ominous events that lead to the creature's re-emergence from its underwater slumber. The story explores themes of forbidden knowledge, madness, and the insignificance of humanity in the face of cosmic forces.
