Lovecraft by the Sea

For centuries, they built a peaceful society by the water ... only to have the men of Sarnath destroy them. The moon is full ... and it's time for revenge. HP Lovecraft's tale of dark idols and watery doom, transported to an age of steam and incipient ecological catastrophe, is brought to life by TL Wiswell's dreamy silhouette puppetry. "The Doom That Came to Sarnath" is then proceeded by storyteller Ben Sohawon's original adaptation of "The Haunter of the Dark," Lovecraft's final, and most terrifying, work, with experimental musician Kinga Janicka adding to the creeping horror.

Brought to you by the London Lovecraft Festival as the first quarterly outing of "Lovecraft by the Sea," a series of festival favorites brought to your doorstep in the intimate confines of Sweet@The Yellow Book.

"[Wiswell] ... managed to surprise even the most fervent Lovecraft devotees" - Starburst Magazine (for "Dreamquest of Unknown Kadath")
