We're back with part two! Jonathan continued to journal about the food and accommodations at Dracula's castle. It takes several days of nocturnal chats for him to realize something is wrong there. the catalyst not being the lack of reflection or violent reaction to blood, but the throwing and breaking of his shave mirror.

Bram Stoker's Dracula part I 11.07.2023 49:59
Buckle up, all! Dracula won the vote for next story. There are 28 chapters. We got through one in today's 50min video. Some of that is the absent mindedness and head pains caused by being off my "band-aid" medications. A lot of it was reading Jonathan Harker's Travel/food blog as he reached Count Dracula's ruined castle. contact me: tocspod@gmail.com, anchor.fm/tangentsoncrackedspines/message soci...

We finish The Dunwich Horror (and this selection of H.P. Lovecraft works). The people of Dunwich lose another family and a police patrol. The three librarians from Arkham save the day. The people of the town are grateful and forever traumatized. Please vote for the next story.

The Dunwich Horror part III 18.04.2023 43:10
Today, we read chapters 7 & 8. The Whateley house "explodes," the people of Dunwich panic as their countryside is flattened by some unknown beast, the cattle are unsafe, and it appears, neither are the people. Meanwhile, at Miskatonic University, the librarians that witnessed Wilbur's death unlock the secret of his cryptic diary. And in doing so, plan a trip to Dunwich. Contact:...
The Dunwich Horror part II 10.04.2023 44:26
We read chapters 4-6 today. It mostly takes place in Miskatonic University. Lavinia disappears, Grandpa Whatley dies, Wilber keeps growing. He tries to get his paws on the Necronomicon. It doesn't end well for him. How it fares for everyone else, we'll find out next time. Contact: tocspod@gmail.com Support: Www.mamachatdesigns.com
The Dunwich Horror part I 02.04.2023 42:15
We start reading H.P. Lovecraft's The Dunwich Horror. As we read the first three chapters, we find that Dunwich is dilapidated. That there was a boy born out of wedlock to an old family of the town. All the more spoken about because of his dark complection when his mother is albino. He also grows up very quickly, his house smells of death, and cattle seem to be disappearing.

Cat day poems 29.03.2023 8:17
It's apparently national cat day. Here's a collection of related poems. Americans, please attempt to reign in the laughter at the number of times I say "pussy," it is meant as cat. Featured are: "The Cat" by Charles Baudelaire, "The Cat that Walked by Himself" by Rudyard Kipling, "Cats" by anonymous, and "The Owl and the Pussy-Cat" by Edward Lear.
The Call of Cthulhu part III 28.03.2023 39:27
Today, we finish The Call of Cthulhu. We read about a sailor who has seen Cthulhu and lived (for a time) to (not) talk about it. One more short story before we move on from Lovecraft. Contact me? Tocspod@gmail.com Merch? Www.etsy.com/shop/MamaChatDesigns
Call of Cthulhu part II 24.03.2023 37:05
This episode we hear the story of the New Orleans cult, I attempt to redact racist/outdated descriptors. And we end chapter 2 with a conspiracy that the narrator's uncle may have been murdered and that the narrator himself may be in danger. That's what you get for investigating ancient secret organizations in hope of notoriety. Support: Linktr.ee/frankiecore92 Contact: tocspod@gmail.com
Pi(e) day! 15.03.2023 10:21
We celebrate 3.14 with pie recipes! Not sponsored. And I managed not to make a Sweeny Todd reference. Maybe I should have added a meat pie. https://www.pillsbury.com/recipes/fresh-raspberry-pie https://www.nestleprofessional.us/recipe/libbys-famous-pumpkin-pie
Call of Cthulhu part I 14.03.2023 42:44
Today we enter H.P. Lovecraft's possibly best-known work Call of Cthulhu. Also, you get to listen to me stumble over the author's, sorry - elder gods, consonant-heavy language. And some... less-than-desirable descriptions. Linktr.ee/frankiecore92 Tocspod@gmail.com
Women's history month poems 08.03.2023 6:58
Hello all! I didn't do my homework, so we have poems by lovely ladies for March, rather than some fanciful sick monkey poems. Featured are "Neighbors" by Anne Spencer, "For the candlelight" by Angelina Weld Grimke, and "Ballade at Thirty-Five" & "Inscription for the Ceiling of a Bedroom" by Dorthy Parker.
The Colour Out of Space part III 07.03.2023 46:58
Lovecraft lovers! We end this cursed drink of water today and prey for the souls that must drink from the Arkham reservoir. At least now that we know the whole story of the blasted heath. And I rambled. A lot. Even for me. My sleep schedule is all messed up. Support? Linktr.ee/frankiecore92 contact? Tocspod@gmail.com
