Tomb of the Black Pharaoh

Danforth: Eldritch Tales of WWII

By: Christopher Michael

Narrated by: J.T. Verona

The Cthulhu Mythos continues in series Danforth: Eldritch Tales of WWII.

In this Lovecraftian tale of horror and espionage, Tomb of the Black Pharaoh follows Robert B. Danforth, a former Miskatonic University scholar still reeling from the horrific events At the Mountains of Madness.

Now part of the newly formed Office of the Coordinator of Information (COI)—the predecessor of the famed Office of Strategic Services (OSS)—Danforth is dispatched to Cairo to thwart a Nazi plot to recover the Talisman of Nephren-ka, buried deep within the lost tomb of Black Pharaoh. Said to grant unspeakable power, the artifact could tip the scales of World War II in the Nazis' favor.

As Danforth delves into the ancient tomb, he faces cults devoted to Nephren-ka, Nazi occultists, and cosmic horrors that strain the limits of his sanity. Danforth must battle not only the looming threat of the Nazis but also the terrifying implications of the Amulet’s power.

As eldritch forces close in and the boundaries between reality and madness begin to crumble, Danforth realizes the cost of failure may be far greater than even the war—humanity itself may be at stake.

This heart-pounding mix of Lovecraftian horror and historical espionage will captivate fans of cosmic terror and WWII thrillers alike, immersing listeners in a world where ancient gods and modern warfare collide in a fight for ultimate power.

Lovecraft’s Prodigy

This is a WWII Lovecraftian nightmare. Christopher writes in such a way that you could be convinced Lovecraft penned the story himself. That means you'll get the story told from our protagonist's point of view, you'll learn the events through his retelling and reports and experience the unraveling of reality alongside him.
