“A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson” by H.P. Lovecraft, Read by Eldra Echo

H.P. Lovecraft wrote this as a joke, and it's not a horror story, but it's part of his work and I'm not picking and choosing which works to cover. If you hate this, you're going to really hate tomorrow's upload (Sweet Ermengarde.) Soon, we'll be back on track with Polaris, though!

I had to do multiple takes of this because Lovecraft intentionally used antiquated spellings and abbreviations in his text. Thanks, Howard, love that for me. Not.

Samuel Johnson is that guy from the painting meme with the funky wig. That’s really all I got out of this story.
