HPL For Beginning Readers
Lovecraft isn’t just for English majors and those with a proclivity for sesquipedalian and prolix prose any more. Join the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society’s Sean Branney and Mike Dalager for a fun-filled reading of the Dr. Seuss-styled versions of “The Call of Cthulhu”, “Dagon” and “At the Mountains of Madness”. We’ll punctuate Seussian fun with text from HPL’s originals too!
Sean is a producer, actor, director and writer with the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society which he runs with his nefarious colleague, Andrew Leman. He was intimately involved in the creation of the motion pictures The Call of Cthulhu and The Whisperer in Darkness, nineteen episodes of Dark Adventure Radio Theatre, and many other Lovecraftian projects. With his work at the HPLHS, he's created many other Lovecraftian entertainments. Sean also produces and directs live theatre in Los Angeles. He plays ice hockey and has four chinchillas.

Mike Dalager is a hybrid mish-mash of talents and nationalities, born and raised at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. A childhood spent half on land and half at sea in the Pacific Ocean raises questions of possible cohabitation with Deep Ones. This link to the sea continues today, as he serves the Nation as a member of the Coast Guard Reserve. For the past ten years, Mike has collaborated and contributed to the HP Lovecraft Historical Society's mission of creating solid Lovecraftian content, appearing in The Call of Cthulhu and The Whisperer in Darkness, and producing conceptual Mythos music as Ogham Waite in "Live at the Gilman House Lounge", and as Executive Producer of "Dreams in the Witch House: A Lovecraftian Rock Opera."
