Albert Wilmarth, a professor of folklore at Miskatonic University, receives a curious piece of mail. It contains a recording of a man claiming that strange creatures live in the remote regions of the mountains of Vermont - just as described in old folklore. It's author presents compelling evidence and Professor Wilmarth eventually goes to Vermont to investigate for himself. What he discovers there is far, far worse than anything he could have imagined. Can the professor escape with his life and sanity, or will he become a part of a horror descended from interstellar space?

Special Pandemic Edition. We realize many of you are under stay-at-home instructions to protect against the coronavirus epidemic. The HPLHS team is under similar orders, but we wanted fans to be able to enjoy an episode during these troubled times. This episode was written and produced so no two members of our team were ever in the studio at the same time.  We stayed safe and hope you will too.

The CD edition will feature the 70-ish minute audio show plus a collection of props to enhance your listening experience.

• a clipping from The Brattleboro Reformer, detailing the discovery of a new planet at the outermost edge of the solar system
• a page from Eli Davenport's manuscript on the folklore surrounding the hill creatures of Vermont
• a photograph of the mysterious Black Stone found by Henry Akeley
• a telegram from Henry Akeley
• for pre-order customers only, the label for an Edison Amberol phonograph cylinder

All of these great extras will be complemented by the fantastic artwork of illustrator Darrell Tutchton in the style you've come to know and love from other episodes of Dark Adventure Radio Theatre.

The CD version of the show also includes a free digital download.

NEW FORMAT.  Like all new CD versions of DART shows, The Whisperer in Darkness is only available packaged in a vinyl sleeve for convenient storage and access to props. We are no longer releasing shows in jewel cases.
