would need a whole lot more money than we have. So, we thought once again we'd turn to the
technologies of Lovecraft's age. Part of what works so well with the novella is the spectacular
images which you imagine as you read it. In a radio drama, we could provide sound effects and
music that would be evocative, but the listener would still have the experience of conjuring these
powerful images in their imaginations. We've been very gratified that so many of our customers
who never listened to old radio shows have found ATMOM (and radio drama) to be a very exciting
way to experience a story.”
