About The Unspeakable and The Inhuman - radio drama
WHAT THIS IS
A serial audio-drama, soap opera inspired by the works of H. P. Lovecraft
Actually this is just the extended pilot, created initially to get feedback from people at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, OR, which happend Oct 6-8, '06. We've decided to put the episode up here, and a few scenes which didn't make onto the original disc, to help promote it. When we go into full production you may hear different actors, different effects, and cleaner sound.
HOW THIS HAPPENED
My friend Sam had an idea for a series of short films - a soap opera inspired by H. P. Lovecraft. At that time I had begun to develop a company that would produce serial audio drama for podcast.
We decided to team up, turning the soap into an audio serial. We were working on the series bible when we realized the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival was a month away. With such a perfect test audience soon to be assembled in Portland, OR we scrambled to create what became an extended pilot of our series – which we named The Unspeakable and the Inhuman, and that's what you're listening to here.
In 2007, the regular series will consist of 5 minute episodes to be uploaded once per week for podcast. [EDIT: As of 11-5-07, we're producing one episode a month with hopes to upload more once we have the resources to do so] We'll keep you updated on which podcast feed we'll use. [EDIT: As of 11-5-07, the episodes are being streamed at eos-press.com] We have other series in the works, spanning many genres, including the adventures of a 20th century treasure hunter, a hard-bitten P.I. series with a psychological twist, a western, a pirate epic, and a series featuring various spoken-word poets performing their work. [EDIT:Uh, we'll see about these series maybe in the future, but right now we're just going to focus on The Unspeakable and the Inhuman]

Greetings Foul One,
It is with utmost loathing and deepest revulsion that we initiate you into the Cult of Cthulhu. Though you are now ultimately doomed to an agonizing fate, being slowly digested over a thousand years in the darkest depths of Cthulhu’s bowels, you may now draw immediate gratification through all the power, wealth and prestige associated with allegiance to the Great Old Ones. Till you are called, Cthulhu Fhtagn!!
Thanks for the add - be sure to check out the book at www.lulu.com/strangesound. Also subscribe to the blog. As there are interviews, reviews and news about the book I'll be posting them there, plus I will probably run a lot of the excerpts that were run at the Music Street Journal profile - in case you missed them the first time around.
