  "article": "Major Lovecraft story adapted several times for radio. The 1945 broadcast was the first full-\nfledged Lovecraft dramatization, although readings of Lovecraft stories had preceded it: Nelson\nOlmsted read “The Music of Erich Zann” in 1943, and there’s a strong possibility that the\nLovecraft ghost-written story “The Curse of Yig” was narrated by Mexico’s El Monje Loco.\n[The Masked Movie Critic, May-June 2005] “I spent a month planning on tuning in to their\npromised adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s The Dunwich Horror only to find, when the night arrived,\nthat it wasn’t a ‘dramatization’ at all…but just a bunch of actors reading the story, and in a\ndecidedly arty, slightly annoying, way. That’s right—only an hour of so-called drama a week and,\nat least in this case, it wasn’t a ‘drama’, but a glorified talking book.”",
