Awix (3310 KP) rated The Lovecraft Investigations in Podcasts
Feb 12, 2021 (Updated Feb 15, 2021)
Mock true-crime podcast adaptation of three of Lovecraft's best-known stories, scripted and directed by Julian Simpson. Achieved in impressive style, and genuinely frightening in places. Purists will be within their rights to complain about the way in which the stories are updated, and the extent to which the adaptation becomes progressively looser and looser as the series continues - but the inclusion of other real-world esoterica and conspiracy theories is impressively done. The tone wobbles slightly in places, but the performances are uniformly strong and it's done with wit and intelligence. One of the best HPL adaptations in any medium.

Milo and Rosabella have moved to France to a gorgeous mansion. Rosabella feels like she's been here before and it's not long before the mansion starts showing her it's history.
An utterly captivating story it really does seem to pull you into it. I enjoyed the style of writing but I will be honest and say with the internal battles I got a bit confused between Ro/Jo a couple of times.
The description of the mansion and its grounds aswell as the town simply breathtaking.
I did not expect the ending at all absolutly fantastic
4/5 truly captivating

This has a runtime of only 12 minutes (including credits) but that was all it took for it to have an absolutely devastating emotional impact.
The animation is a simplistic style but this was all to its credit, as in each scene your eye was drawn specifically to the important details.
It made it feel so raw, and full of the emotions it was trying to illicit.
I wouldn't like to say too much, as I wouldn't want to colour any details of this powerful piece.
I hope that viewers will enjoy it for the beautiful work that it is.

The style felt a little stilted in places and i struggled to get into it. We seemed to miss out on bits of the story that i would've been interested in reading by the author condensing it into one or two short paragraphs.
Strangely, as little as i gelled with the story, there is one thing i want to find out: Why Ryder and Chace fell out. And if it had anything to do with Bailey, so I'm going to skip ahead to find that out but I'm not all that interested in Bailey's story
