The Picture In The House

Description

Limited colored vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Features beautifully commissioned art by Jeremy Hush and also includes an eight-page booklet with new liner notes written by S.T. Joshi (a leading scholar on weird fiction), composition notes by Fabio Frizzi, and more. Vinyl spoken arts label Cadabra Records presents an audio adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's vintage chiller, The Picture In The House, read by renown Lovecraftian scholar and narrator Andrew Leman, with an original score by Fabio Frizzi - the legendary film composer of The Beyond, Zombi 2, Kill Bill and other genre classics. Haunting, hypnotic, and suspenseful, Frizzi's original score is both recognizable and groundbreaking. With a full musical ensemble, the composer creates a timeless and unforgettable soundscape that will be regarded for years to come, and a work beyond anything previously produced for the spoken arts. The Picture in the House is one of Lovecraft's darkest tales, weaving a tale of cannibalism set in the backwoods New England (pre-dating the film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre by 50 years). Masterfully read by veteran voice actor Andrew Leman (a founder of the H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society and a professional actor with years of stage, screen, and audio performances), whose performance captures the proper terror, dread, suspense, and madness of this revered entry in the Lovecraft canon.
