NIGHT GAUNTS: AN ENTERTAINMENT BASED ON THE LIFE AND WRITINGS OF H.P.LOVECRAFT.

Here is the expanded second edition of Brett Rutherford's biographical play, Night Gaunts: An Entertainment Based on the Life and Writings of H.P. Lovecraft. This two-act drama portrays Lovecraft alone during his final days, with flashbacks to his childhood, the insanity of his parents, his "Horror Honeymooners" marriage in Brooklyn, and his triumphant solo return to Providence where he established his reputation as the greatest horror writer since Poe. The book also includes a number of "ceremonial" poems written to be read at H.P. Lovecraft's grave in Swan Point Cemetery in Providence, Rhode Island. The play has been performed twice at The Providence Athenaeum; was adapted by Hal Hamilton as a radio play by New England Institute of Art in Brookline, MA; and was performed in 2006 at The University of Heidelberg by the theater company Expresis Verbis.
