Hi, all. Can anyone point me towards some really good free recordings (podcasts or otherwise, but legal) of Lovecraft stories?

Try the [Cthulhu Podcast](http://www.cthulhupodcast.co.uk/) for starters. He does podcast readings of Lovecraft’s short stories as well as other, related horror stories.

His format is a bit unusual; he starts with some historical info about the era, then plays a song from the era then reads the story. Still, he has hit several of the main stories so far.
