Lovecraftian Horror

Horror podcasts have been a relatively new addition to modern media, but have quickly gained attention and are now listened to by millions of people every month. Lovecraftian horror, also known as "cosmic horror", is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible. It has seen a huge boost in popularity recently due to the release of the British podcast "The Magnus Archives", which ran for 5 years and gripped millions of listeners every month. Here we will explore a few other podcasts, and you can find out which podcast would be best for you!
