We think this is a truly unique event! Come see Doug Bradley read on-stage one of our favorite H.P. Lovecraft stories: The Hound! This tale of madness, depravity, grave-robbing, and otherworldly revenge, read by the man who brought us "We have such sights to show you" will leave you in shivers. Don't miss it... we're serious. You won't see this at the average Horror convention, we promise!

In the wake of "True Detective", we take a look at the influence of Chambers's King In Yellow. What is it exactly, why are only some people drawn to it, and why does it hold such power over the "infected," both in fiction and for real life creators? Are the stories an essay on madness, supernatural fiction, or somehow both? Joe Pulver, Michael Cisco, KL Young, and S. T. Joshi.
