Ep 29: The Genius of H. P. Lovecraft Artwork

Motherhood is Murder

Welcome to Motherhood is Murder, a podcast where we explore criminal cases and the lessons we can learn from them. I am your host, Valerie Kacian. I am a mom of three who has been on the quest to understand the criminal mind for longer than I can remember. I have noticed that behind each crime there is not only a story that can be told, but something to be learned. This podcast is designed to provide you with both. Each Tuesday, we will discuss a case, as well as steps that can be taken to build awareness surrounding the issues presented in the case.

Ep 29: The Genius of H. P. Lovecraft

October 03, 2023 • Valerie Kacian • Episode 29

It is officially Spooky Season! October will have a slightly different format to usher in the spookiest month of the year. We will explore horror and spooky authors in New England throughout the month studying their background, works and influence.

This week we dive deep into the cosmic world of H. P. Lovecraft. A native of Providence, RI who struggled with mental illness, H. P. Lovecraft began what we now know to be science fiction. His work has influenced horror fiction, science fiction, graphic novels, comic books, movies, and so much more. A person who studied mythology since the age of 5, Lovecraft has become a myth in and of himself.

Join me as we discuss his influence.
