    Fun version of a personal Favorite.

    Story has been expanded from the original.
    That doesn't detract anything.
    The accents are, how shall I put it, questionable. At best.
    Especially the over the top Mad man in charge of the Sub.
    But that adds a sense of overblown melodramatic fun to the whole thing.
    I really liked the changed ending. It fits surprisingly well.

    Not the Best….

    I’m sorry to have to write this, but The Temple isn’t one of DART’s better efforts. The script departed substantially from Lovecraft’s tale and wasn’t an improvement. I particularly found the phoney German and British accents to be like nails on a blackboard after about ten minutes. By the end of the story I was just longing for it to be over. And the jingoistic propaganda and the psychopath U-Boat Captain was WAY overdone. Again, I feel awful for bagging a DART production, but that’s how I saw it. Can’t say I will ever bother listening to this one again.
    Note: I only bought the MP3 download. The props version might be worth it just for them.

    Undersea Horror

    Another creative and haunting horror from the HPLHS. The Temple has all the weirdness you could possibly want plus amazing acting and sound effects! Brand new listening pleasure ala old time radio vibes!

    One of my favorite HPL in fully interactive form

    This is one of my top 3 favorite classic stories so I was beyond excited to get the preorder when this DART story was announced. I was not disappointed! HPLHS even changed some minor details that flowed well & built a very suspenseful, fresh ending. Check it out!
