Constructive criticism: too many kinda glottal stops and hard esses in the reading for my taste, a bit too emphatic staccato, but... Still one of the best I've heard, and appropriate to the subject. (I find 'The Outsider' along with 'The Rats in the Walls' and 'The Haunter in the Dark..' to be HPL's best, imho, of course.) Bottom line is that I fell asleep to this reading. Who knew that 'The Outsider' could be ASMR?
Thank you! Interesting. I grew up with a Devonshire accent which includes the glottal stop. I thought I'd lost that trait, but it seems it emerges when I whisper.
@@MorganScorpion Oh that makes sense! Now I see (hear) it.... But- could you do 'The Hound'- I think that rally fits your style (or maybe that's just because it's one of my fav HPL stories). I read it in a book of short stories that I stumbled on when I was maybe 11 years old... that and 'The Rats in the Walls'- I didn't sleep for days, and hearing that whispered... Yikes. 😬 Anyway, Cheers! Edit- I just got that those stories are all about alienation, fig and lit. Ha! I learn something every day.
@@MorganScorpion Yeah, I just listened ...thanks for the nightmares. (Lol, j/k- it was good though.) Edit- actually it was your reading of 'The Dreams in the Witch House's that I just finished. Very good.
@@bholdr----0Morgan did the best recording of “Dreams from the Witch House “. It’s my third favourite story by HPL, the Whisperer in Darkness is my favourite and Haunter of the Dark being second 👍…I always get this one mixed up with The Outsider
Incredibly eerie, both soothing and compelling. Thank you for this experience of one of HPL’s finest works 🖤

@@bholdr----0 Will do. Probably not for a few weeks. I've already recorded a non ASMR version which is on my channel.
