Wayne... was always there for me on my long binges into the insurmountable madnesses. He kept everyone's morale up when faced with inexplicable horrors. He never asked; he always commanded.... and we obliged: "BACK TO THE PIT!" His voice and leadership were the light at the end of the tunnel; reminding us that we could claw our way back out, no matter... how changed and disfigured we had become. "Press this advantage, give them no quarter!"
Glad to see that Wayne will get credit for all the views his fantastic narration on this story has been getting that others have uploaded. This one is one of my favorites, Thanks!
This was the first lovecraft book I ever listened to, and ignited my passion for the genre and theme. Thank you Wayne, for all you did in forming my character. Goodbye ❤
@@justaclock4768 Perhaps, but who or what is it? If this cycle has gone for as long as I think,then what is causing it? What's hidden behind these faces?
There's no better way to experience a reading of Lovecraft than his stories being read by Wayne June. Looking forward to listening to your reading of "The Colour Out of Space". :-)
Agreed! You feel such pity for Edward and it really puts you in Dan’s shoes wanting to help but feeling utterly helpless. Wayne is a master and perfectly paired with Lovecraft!
A simple mention of the Necronomicon makes my skin crawl, especially coming from Wayne June. I’d love to hear Wayne June read the Necronomicon, could call it “Fireside Occultism with Wayne June”
I will not mention which Lovecraft dominate horror narrating UA-cam channel I am referring to, but from their sheer volume you can probably bable it out. I was growing very concerned when I listen to them read the Dunwich Horror and was bored out of my mind. I had not liked their color out of space and only knew call of cuthulu was good because I read it myself. So I ventured out to find someone to really bring the text alive. The search didn't take long when I found myself utterly mesmerized by Wayne's narration! It's absolutely marvelous and matches the context of what is being read beautifully. Great job Wayne!
That was INCREDIBLE!!! Wayne, you were MADE to read horror literature! This easily became my Wife and I’s most favorite Lovecraft story to date! *Horrifying.* Subscribed and waiting with bated breath for *More*.
I had not been privy to the knowledge of your identity before Darkest Dungeon. And so from that delightfully abysmal locale I ascend, and thoroughly take immense enjoyment your other endeavors such as this one.
That was great. This story has been done so many ways and kinds but there is something about lovecraft that tugs at the Soul. And this prodigious, curious and haunting voice. *It is a travesty* but it shall prosper for it fascinates the brave and the foolhardy alike.
Such a terrifying story narrated so masterfully. I couldn't wish for a better combo. I listened this several times by now, and will listen it again in the future when my mood is right, it's just so great.
Man I really love Lovecraft inspired fiction, Bloodborne, Amnesia, and Darkest Dungeon are some of my favorite games. I do struggle with actually reading Lovecraft but this was amazing and I loved it.
no better way to calm down after a long day of work then to settle down to a good book read by a calming voice, thank you for all the entertainment and help
57:23 so I remember where I am tomorrow. Just want to say you have an incredible way of speaking for these books and I'm enjoying every single one of them.
Whoa!! I got chills at that last sentence! :0 "Some dental works positively identified the skull- as Asenath's." Friiiick! That was chilling to realize that Asenath's skull was in Edward's body, like her skeleton replaced his own.
Not quite. Edward killed “Asenath” and buried her body in the basement. Her father was powerful enough that even after death, he was able to take over Edward’s body again and put Edward’s mind into Asenath’s corpse. It had been rotting for several months and that’s why it smelled so bad and fell apart in the last scene.
I no joke just finished this on my own. I also listened to the audio book that had your reading, and you add a lot of good to it. You're frantic depiction of Derby is fantastic 👌
I've always been a fan of books, but given how I don't particularly like horror films I didn't think I'd enjoy horror stories. Tried Darkest Dungeon a few years ago. Really glad I found your channel as well as horrorbabble, turns out I absolutely love the slow buildup these stories provide. I'm very happy that you seem to have tons of new fans through your role in DD, you definitely deserve it! Personally I like playing it with some story I already know playing in the background to set the mood.
Wayne! I surprised and pleased to find you here sir! ive been listening to this narration since the late 90s when i had it on cassette!! :) its accompanied me through the creation of many artworks (always listen to audiobooks while painting) this is the best version of Lovecrafts epic tale, hands down! thanks! :)
This man has the cool appearance and stoic voice of a true lovecraftian investigator, such a shame his moxie and curiosity will lead him directly into Arkham asylum.
I recognise this guy‘s voice from years ago I had this on cassette and it sounds like the actor although I can’t remember his name it could be this guy. The voice sounds very familiar. I had on double cassette in about the late 90s lost the cassette or it snapped through overplaying. Glad I found this.
Rest in peace. Wish I found out you read one of my favorite Lovecraft earlier.
Wayne... was always there for me on my long binges into the insurmountable madnesses. He kept everyone's morale up when faced with inexplicable horrors.

"Press this advantage, give them no quarter!"
"sigh" no one lives forever, but legends never die.
Rest in peace, Mr. June.

@@idoall1134 I AM! :-)
@@kqlin34❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@idoall1134if only, may he rest in peace
I got unnecessarily excited when he said "Down there in the dark"
When specifically does he say this?
Around 1:00:54
But perhaps we can slay them even faster
They breed quickly...
@@cameronmaclean6860 oh fuck
Rest in piece wayne June
Without a doubt my favourite voice for a Lovecraft reading, just a shame this is the only one I can find.
There's Dunwich Horror, Horror at Red Hook too !!
Rest in Peace, sir. A man taken from the world far too soon.
Wayne, you are without doubt the greatest reader of Lovecraft ever.
Thanks, Brett! :-)
Without a shadow of a doubt man
Agreed, a great gravelly drawl that captures most of the rhythms and evocations HPL was infusing into his work.
Which is not easy!
Rest in peace Wayne.
An hour of Wayne reading H P Lovecraft...Christmas has come early folks.
REST IN PIECE GOAT 💔💔
Glad to see that Wayne will get credit for all the views his fantastic narration on this story has been getting that others have uploaded. This one is one of my favorites, Thanks!
I like all Lovecraft narrators but he’s the best
I created this video.. It was originally on a channel that youtube gutted called Deadnest.. There is still a facebook Deadnest..
@@carmelaalbanese124 so that's why i couldn't find haunter of the dark that i used to listen to at bedtime
Ruin has come to our family. Rest in peace, Wayne

Absolutely love your reading Wayne June. I listen on my way home, then play Darkest Dungeon.
Thanks, Magi... be careful not to overdose! :-)
Came here because darkest dungeon, stayed for reasons too terrible to fathom. Thank you for sharing these with us.
Best narrator with the best voice, making great content. But always remember that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.
LOL - Aggressive Vaper understands that adversity and existence are one and the same
This marks my third listening of this book, this carved a great impression in me, just left me in awe and shock, and it still manages to do so
This comment section understands that Wayne June and excellent narration are one and the same.
No one lives forever, but legends never die. Rest in peace, Wayne June.
This was the first lovecraft book I ever listened to, and ignited my passion for the genre and theme. Thank you Wayne, for all you did in forming my character. Goodbye ❤
Today they say they love you, yet tomorrow they're using your body for eldritch incantations
Women, am I right?
Lol
I'm geniunely curious whether they were female,or human at all. Perhaps old Ephraim wasn't the first face it took. What do you think?
@@alyseleem2692 late reply but I would say, they were human at one point but driven into madness by the eldritch being.
@@justaclock4768 Perhaps, but who or what is it? If this cycle has gone for as long as I think,then what is causing it? What's hidden behind these faces?
@@alyseleem2692 just,try not to think too much about it. Nothing good happens when you are desperate for the morbid and terrible answers.
There's no better way to experience a reading of Lovecraft than his stories being read by Wayne June. Looking forward to listening to your reading of "The Colour Out of Space". :-)
Your rendition of Edward's raving is perfect in every aspect!
Agreed! You feel such pity for Edward and it really puts you in Dan’s shoes wanting to help but feeling utterly helpless. Wayne is a master and perfectly paired with Lovecraft!
Came to comment the same thing!
Rest in Peace Wayne June. You had one of the best voices i've ever heard
Such a great voice for Lovecraft. I’d give my kingdom to hear a reading of “The Colour Out of Space” (my personal favorite Lovecraft story).
Fuck.
It's safe to say that I'm going to listen to this more than once. xD
A simple mention of the Necronomicon makes my skin crawl, especially coming from Wayne June. I’d love to hear Wayne June read the Necronomicon, could call it “Fireside Occultism with Wayne June”
Nothing better than H P Lovecraft PLUS your voice, this was an excellent listen.
Thanks Seyoiph... More Lovecraft comin'
4:31 "He died screaming in a mad house in 1946"
9:19 Characters mention the war came
HP Lovecraft died in 1937....
Think he says 1926
HP Lovecraft narrated by you is a dream come true!
This is something I didn't know I needed.
A moment of clarity in the eye of the storm...
Sir June really takes this absolute classic to a new level of fright-inducing.

My favorite lovecraft story, read by my favorite narrator. Life is good.
"As Asenathe's--" I just adore how this ends.
That was INCREDIBLE!!! Wayne, you were MADE to read horror literature! This easily became my Wife and I’s most favorite Lovecraft story to date! *Horrifying.*
Subscribed and waiting with bated breath for *More*.
Yes!! I can confirm, as @AimlessPassions wife that this reading was so captivating!! Absolutely loved it, Thank you Wayne!
I had not been privy to the knowledge of your identity before Darkest Dungeon.
And so from that delightfully abysmal locale I ascend, and thoroughly take immense enjoyment your other endeavors such as this one.
Wayne June is perfect for narrating Lovecraft!
Poor Ed. Hopefully our dear narrator managed to accomplish his final request. Spectacular work as always, Mr. June.
Thanks Mr Payne!
My new favorite story reader. Your voice is spooky perfect for these.
One of my favorite Lovecraft tales. Much appreciated Mr June.
My pleasure, Mikael...
That was great. This story has been done so many ways and kinds but there is something about lovecraft that tugs at the Soul.
And this prodigious, curious and haunting voice.
*It is a travesty* but it shall prosper for it fascinates the brave and the foolhardy alike.
Cracking work, curling up with this and a cup of tea while a raging storm batters at my windows is pure bliss.
Thank you oh so much, kind sir! To think that you upload this kind of stuff for free, makes me very happy! endless thanks
Such a terrifying story narrated so masterfully. I couldn't wish for a better combo. I listened this several times by now, and will listen it again in the future when my mood is right, it's just so great.
My favorite Lovecraft story.
Mr. June, you absolute legend.
Wunderbar. The only way to listen to audiobooks!
*SHIVERS*
This is so good, amazing job as always!
"Madness, sublimity of the intelligence. Or so it has been said."

Darkest Dungeon- hell yeah! I admit I get a jolt when I stumble into an alignment of stars of this kick ass magnitude.
Man I really love Lovecraft inspired fiction, Bloodborne, Amnesia, and Darkest Dungeon are some of my favorite games. I do struggle with actually reading Lovecraft but this was amazing and I loved it.
Your voice reminds me that the abyss returns even the boldest Gaze
Thanks for the audio, love ya papa Wayne!
Back atcha, Bae

Thanks Hiram! My pleasure!
The narrator is sooo good ! Thank you !!
Oh this is a glorious combination I did not realize I needed to hear until now.
57:23 so I remember where I am tomorrow. Just want to say you have an incredible way of speaking for these books and I'm enjoying every single one of them.
My favorite Lovecraft story, and the perfect voice to tell it. You are a gift to us all, sir.
This man is Great. Brings so much clarity to Lovecraft.
First person narration is often tiring and confusing, but this guy flies completely over it.
I wish I could have discovered you long before Mr. June.
Awesome!! I love listening to your narrations Wayne! Also, this is my first time hearing/reading any HP Lovecraft. Boy was I missing out.
Yeah, man Lovecraft is the best... more coming!
Whoa!! I got chills at that last sentence! :0 "Some dental works positively identified the skull- as Asenath's." Friiiick! That was chilling to realize that Asenath's skull was in Edward's body, like her skeleton replaced his own.

By far the best telling of this story I've ever heard. Thank you so much! 🖤🖤
This is probably the best reading of this story I have heard....i'm very particular to my readings, and this is just....incredible.
The single best way to experience Lovecraft's work. Bravo
Wayne, i cannot find the words to tell you about how much i appreciate your works
I no joke just finished this on my own. I also listened to the audio book that had your reading, and you add a lot of good to it. You're frantic depiction of Derby is fantastic 👌

Absolutely fantastic reading mister June, loved every second of it. It very well was a brilliant confluence of skill, and purpose
I hope you continue to read more for us Mister June, your voice is incredible, thank you for sharing it with us
Thank you so much for this ❤ this recording made it to the collection of my "bedtime stories" 😅😊
Thank you Wayne, this is one of the few stories I haven't had the chance to read yet!
wayne we love you
1:00:54 "They breed quickly down here, in the dark, but perhaps we can slay them even faster."
God what an ending... I both hate and love how I’ll never know if it ends
Hey Wayne, your stuff is great! I wish you a good life with much progeny
Wow. Great literature. Excellent narrator.
Your haunting, yet deeply calming voice is a great inspiration to me. Love your readings
You are incredible for doing this, and so is your work.
This man has the cool appearance and stoic voice of a true lovecraftian investigator, such a shame his moxie and curiosity will lead him directly into Arkham asylum.
The way is lit. The path is clear. We require only Wayne June's narration to follow it.
Amazing story telling
You do these stories justice with your voice. Came across your story narrations through the Darkest Dungeon.
Love your narration.
Your voice is superb.
Thank you this is gm Khalil from Twitter this is great can’t wait for what you’ve got in store 😊😊😊🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

This, and Michael Bennett's reading of "The Shadow Over Innsmouth," are my favorite audio interpretations of Lovecraft stories anywhere.
Great reading! Spooky story read in a very spooky voice! Big round of applause for your talent!
Edward has now the right to say "Ruin has come to my family"
The best audio version of this story
