About this listen

The Evil Clergyman is a brief but chilling work by H.P. Lovecraft, written in 1933 and published posthumously in 1939. Unlike many of Lovecraft's stories that delve into cosmic horror and elaborate mythologies, this tale presents a deeply personal and mysterious vision, drawing readers into an unsettling encounter with the unknown. Originally conceived as a vivid nightmare that Lovecraft recounted in a letter to fellow writer Bernard Austin Dwyer, this story unfolds with an eerie immediacy that reflects its dreamlike origins.

Set in an old, dimly lit room filled with strange and ancient relics, The Evil Clergyman tells the story of a man who, drawn by a cryptic curiosity, uncovers disturbing secrets about a clergyman of sinister reputation. With an economy of words, Lovecraft conjures an atmosphere of dread, where ordinary objects seem to pulse with hidden menace and otherworldly forces appear just beyond perception. The story reveals Lovecraft’s skill at turning the familiar into the grotesque, leaving readers with a sense of creeping horror that lingers well beyond the final lines.
