Show Notes

This week, we journey once again into the nightmarish world of H. P. Lovecraft with his sci-fi work from 1927, "The Colour Out Of Space".  This was Lovecraft's own personal favourite of his short stories, and one of the best examples of his particular blend of science fiction and horror.   As with many of his stories, it is as much about what you don't see as what you do.  How can you avoid a horror you cannot describe?
