The Complete Cthulhu Mythos by H. P. Lovecraft 

It has come to our attention that the chapter times are no longer appearing in the video itself.

Stretching for the 10 minute mark I see

I have dyslexia. Every time I have tried to read Lovecraft I would get confused, his flowery language is a cruel word maze to my eyes and brain. Having it read to me makes it completely understandable! Thank you for your wonderful work on this channel!

I’m impressed. It’s not every day you see a 22 hour video. This must have been a nightmare to upload...

I work in retail, and this is going to make my 12 hour shifts a lot easier. The solitary job of stacking shelf's during a pandemic over night with the old ones whispers in my ear. Thank you, you've earned my sub.

This chad is still out here hearting comments, that's a true pro gamer move

"Sir, I'm afraid you only have 1 day to live."

I watched the whole thing. I did it. I conquered this mountain of a video.

A cyclopean, moldy, eldritch upload. No mortal mind can easily conceive the sheer vastness of the mindbending architecture of these crumbling, antediluvian recitations. Thank you!

“Complete Cthulhu mythos in 22 minutes? Must be a pretty concise review” ... “oh okay”

When mom says you can watch one more video before bed.

"AND WORST OF ALL, THE UNMENTIONABLE..." **mentions it** "NECRONOMICON!"

I’ve had a terrible cold for the past few days. i’ve been laying in bed falling in an out of sleep with this video playing in the background. This video, in combination with my fevered mind, have given me to most intense twisted dreams ive had in quite some time. It almost makes having a cold fun. Thanks Ian!

It’s my sleepover and I’m choosing the movie.

Whomever is reading, their voice fits wonderfully with Lovecrafts works. 👏👏👏

The narration is incredible. I consume audiobooks like crazy so Ive suffered through countless awkward narrations of all kinds of stories. This is one of the best narrations Ive ever had the pleasure to experience!

Its because of content like this that im thankful for youtube and the people that make it more than worth taking advantage of. Thank you for your hard work.

I started reading the Cthulhu mythos when i was 13 years old. Now, since i found this, I sleep to it and my dreams are so interesting. *Thank you HorrorBabble.*

As a Rhode Island native and a fan of H.P. Lovecraft. This is friggin awesome

Now that winter is over I started taking 2-mile walks every evening, after sundown. Listening to this while I walk through the shadowy parks and trails of my small town

Now I finally have something to put as background while we dine this Chistmas, thanks!!

I put this on before going to sleep and the radio parts in At the Mountains of Madness scared me awake. XD

Holy crap, I think the length of this video counts as an Elder Being. Absolutely stellar. ;) Thanks for this guys.

Hello Ian Gordon. You did an excellent job reading these Lovecraft stories for us all to enjoy. It isn't easy reading Lovecraft either silently or especially aloud. However, you captured the particular tone of him very well. I'm totally blind, and have been reading audio books most of my life. Thanks again for such a great treat for us all to enjoy.

I love this namely because I can sleep to this and wake up with it still playing. I have night terrors that get BAD when I'm in a silent room so I have to have some kind of noise playing. Music is difficult due to tune and beat so audiobooks are usually my go-to, but many aren't long enough and due to being on mobil, cannot be looped. So yeah, I appreciate the effort that I know went into this long-AF video and absolutely love all those that did this.

Bed time stories just hit a new level completely for me.

This series is beyond description. Only in a state of utter madness can one possibly grasp a fraction of its hideous unimaginable countenance.

What a phenomenal upload. I've always wanted to get into Lovecraft, but know I wouldn't make time to read it. Listening while I do house work was absolutely perfect for me, and the quality of this narration is exceptional. I'll be buying some merch as a show of gratitude, thank you so much for this.

The narration here is better than the narration in the Google audio book I paid for lol.

Great contribution to the Lovecraftian community

I finally finished this masterpiece collection of tales. Ian, you outdid yourself on this feat. There are probably no words to describe Lovecraft's art of storytelling but genius. Thank you so very much.♡

A 22 hour hp marathon read by Ian Gordon?... Ian, if we did that your fans would all be quivering mounds of jelly...

Man, the combination of your voice and the slightly grainy, scratchy recording is just... perfect for this sort of story. You have become the voice in my head when I read Lovecraft.

I love listening your readings and playing Cryo Chamber's Lovecraft inspired dark ambient music low in the background. Azathoth, Cthulhu, Shub-Niggurath, Nyarlathotep, Yog-Sothoth makes for super creepy background dread.

Only one word to describe both author and narrator: masterful.

So...the talented gal reading "Zadok" in The Shadow Over Innsmouth...is her name really Jennifer Gill? Perfect!

Among the best horror ever set to paper. You who took the care to assemble such a voluminous tomb have ensured its endurance for decades to come. My sincere compliments.

I think this is such a fantastic beast of a video, as remarkable in content as it is in scope and style and quality. And to think that not too many years ago the best way to listen to Lovecraft was downloading scratchy cassette rips. Thanks Ian!

This is a life saver for long car rides, particularly for someone with motion sickness like me

You're doing the Dark Lord's work.

My dude I hope you understand the real appreciation I have for all this work you did. this is incredible I've been looking for exactly this for so long.

Whisperer in darkness the story I thought I wouldn't like but fell in love with

Why does the narrator sound like Ian McDarmid? I almost expect him to unexpectedly say: “did you ever hear The Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?”😂😂😂

How I admire the stalwart dedication to spend this much of one's life to sharing grand literature for the unaquainted to listen to, and for the rest of us to enjoy.....only to be "devalued and cast aside"..,and yet.... Thank you Ian and Jennifer....so so much.

One of if not THE best additions to RU-vid's catalogue. Cheers!

Used this to go to sleep with for about a month now. Kudos .

I have listen to all these story's but i also ''haven't''. When i have hard time falling asleep i put on one of the H.P. Lovecraft audio books and listen, drifting slowly to deep dream while imagining all the scenes and characters that the story tells, only to forget them in next morning exeapt the begining part where the scenes start to blure and the voice begins to be just a noise. To me H.P. Lovecraft story's are comforting with there mystic aura and descriptions. al tho i do remember one dream, where i was falling or flying towards a black hole around which shine rainbow colors and came defending yet also soft like cotton noise or voice while 1000 fingers touched my back in warmth and comfort. Ether way, great work m8! I hope you are sleept well after this long work.

Great reading, and I love the subtle sounds in the background. Thank you for making my long commute more bearable!

I love this narrative! The reader gives it a really spooky feeling... What a voice. Wow!

When listing at night I find that curling up with a puppy is effective at helping to quell the rising madness within my mind

Just finished the whole thing took me a while , but wow these stories were amazing I'd always been interested in hp Lovecraft but never read any of his work, thanks so much for this your narration was perfect. I will have to read them again for myself now

Going to sleep with this on is crazy! The topics slip in a distort your dreams and place you right in to these stories! Thanks!

This guy is still hearting comments from only a few days ago on a video from 2018! What?! Also, I watched the whole video over the course of roughly 5 days...

Christmas comes early! Thank you so much HorrorBabble.

I am beginning this epic in short sequences. Thank you for all the time that it took to record these tales Ian.

Finally finished this after 4 weeks of listening on and off. I must say it was an experience I'll never forget, thank you.

I started reading this to my dad when he was in a coma. things didnt go well so ive had a hard time going back. but this makes it bearable. thank you

My favorites were "The Dunwich Horror" and "The Shadow Out of Time".

I leave this playing throughout the day, genuinely don't know how many times i have finished this since i found it? I have this on most days( 5/7 ) My favourite story has to be "At the Mountains of Madness" just something about it intrigues me!

Just WOW. 22hours of content combined in one video with timestamps. Respect and thank you so much. ♥

I'm doing some research on a game I want to make and this video is perfect because I can just listen to this while I procrastinate.

Came looking for "at the mtns of madness" will stay for the ENTIRE thing. Thank you

Thank you from the deepest depths and the darkest corners

Hypothesis, the great old ones are only active once every 255 million years, this is the length of a cosmic year. A cosmic year is how long it takes the solar system to complete a revolution of the galaxy. This would correspond to the stars being right

I'm just getting into the mythos, and this is EXACTLY what I wanted. Thanks so much

Found my new favourite author and set of stories. By far the best collection of stories I've ever heard. 10/10 best 22 hours of my life, Will listen again

This is genuinely one of the best things on RU-vid. Thank you so much for this.

Been meaning to read these stories for a while, imagine my happiness when I saw this in my recommendations

it took me about 2 and a half years listening whenever I had the chance, but by God I listened to the whole thing... and love that I did

Thank you for doing this!! I've been a Lovecraft fan but never had time to read every little thing he wrote and can listen to this while I work.

I usually can't draw while "someone is talking", but for some reason, I draw better when I'm listen to horror stories. Your channel has been helping me a lot to focus on my practices and I'm even using it for streams (with credits, of course). I hope my few follower are also around here. Your voice is PERFECT for this kind of thing.

Finally something good to watch/listen to on RU-vid

Listening from Vermont and recognizing all of these places! Cheers

Thanks for posting, many years since I read these books. Very well read too.

Thank you so much for allowing us your viewers to enjoy these wonderful tales. I appreciate this so much

This is truly amazing. I’ve wanted to get into lovecraft for some time now but I simply didn’t have the money. This is a godsend and incredibly well read as well! Thank you so much for uploading this :)

Currently listening to this in the background while I do work. I love the Cthulhu mythos.

Thank you for putting your time into this. 22 hours of pure determination. Your voice flows like a river when you speak ans its hard to put the headphones down when you listen to it. You never cease to amaze.

This man's voice is perfect for this material. Splendid entertainment.

I discovered H.P. Lovecraft because of Ian Gordon and his wonderful channel! Your voice, coupled with the subtle sound design and ambience serve well to properly immerse the listener to the fullest extent of the audio book medium. I have been greatly enjoying this, especially whilst nestled under my blanket, and the psychoactive bliss of potent marijuana. Tomorrow, I shall be leaving sunny Albuquerque, New Mexico and returning to frozen, snow-covered Massachusetts; home sweet home! Thank you so very much for these; I recognize the difference between labor, and a labor of love. Respectfully, - Adam Borseti

I've been listening to nosleep/creepypastas for years and it's interesting to hear stories that inspired so many of them I love the writing style and feel very inspired myself 😊

Started Christmas Eve, back in the mountains of madness Christmas Day. Many many thanks 😘

I have become an ordain follower I give you my greatest gratitude for enlightening my mind, body, and soul.

This is fantastic. The work you put in to posting HorrorBabble / Lovecraft / Complete CTHULHU MYTHOS is incredible...thank you as always.

I have never heard or read any lovecraft, this man must have been a genius, also this narrator is doing a great job

This has to be one of the greatest RU-vid videos I have ever encountered. Bravo, good sir.

13 hrs in so far. Love it. Great voice for the stories. Thanks. I wondee how many folk truly made it all the way through.

This is possibly the single most important RU-vid download ever. Even more so than Kylie Minogue's Agent Provocateur advert.

Never actually listened to the entire reading of At the Mountains of Madness until tonight. That sound will haunt me. Cheers Ian.

My mind reeled and grasped for purchase when I pondered the amount of time it must of taken to upload this eldritch madness.

Yup. My favorite RU-vid upload ever. Not only is it 22 hours of HPL but it's more frightening narrated by you than reading it. Maybe I should learn to read someday. A masterpiece ! 👍

Exquisite narration, great histories. Lovecraft would be proud

I've only listened to a few of your productions so far, and mostly not even in the Cthulhu mythos. You bring everything to life so well! Your tone and cadence is wonderful at bringing out the horror in the shorter (20-30 minute) stories, so I'm excited to have found this treasure trove of audiobooks. Delightfully horrid listens, and it's great to have access to the texts themselves to catch the more archaic language and the names that auto-gen subtitles absolutely mangle. You've whetted my appetite for a much deeper dive into this cosmos and served me up a beautiful all-you-can-eat buffet. Thanks so much for all your time and effort!

I enjoy this collection so much, I think I have listened to the whole thing at least 15 times now.

I return to this whenever I have a long stretch of time to fill, (car rides, airport experiences, family dinners etc.) I'm 15 hours in. I dread finishing this more than I dread the nameless horror lying dormant beneath R'lyeh

I'm listening through (bit by bit) - and wanted to thank you for your work. My 16 year old daughter just got into Lovecraft and she loves your recordings! As do I! She loves your recording of The Nameless City, and is listening through the whole C'thulu mythos. Its wonderful sharing this with her. My thanks for the amazing efforts and thought you put into these.

I listen to this over and over and learn new things every time. I love those mysterious dark mountains. I love that voice too. Just great.

Thank you for spending the time to do this for our enjoyment. Beautiful

I sleep to these stories. It's not that I find you boring, but your voice is so relaxing ☺️☺️☺️ Your tone and cadence is just so soothing, and I love the piano piece when you introduce stories.
