This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Dark, decaying, and filled with dread, The Shunned House is one of H.P. Lovecraft's earliest forays into the horrors that lurk in the unseen corners of our world. Set in Providence, Rhode Island—Lovecraft's own hometown—this eerie tale explores the lingering evil that infects an old, seemingly ordinary house where generations have withered under a malevolent force.
The story follows a narrator and his uncle, Dr. Elihu Whipple, as they investigate the house's grim history of illness, madness, and unexplained deaths. Despite the skepticism of science and reason, they come to suspect that something far more ancient and otherworldly is responsible for the suffering within its walls. When they descend into the darkened basement to confront the truth, what they find is more terrifying than either man could have imagined.
With classic Lovecraftian themes of cosmic horror, ancestral secrets, and the limits of human understanding, The Shunned House delivers creeping tension and atmospheric terror.
This audiobook edition captures Lovecraft's chilling narrative in all its dread-soaked glory—perfect for fans of classic horror, supernatural mysteries, and stories that suggest the worst monsters are the ones we can't quite see.
