THE HORROR AT RED HOOK (The Lovecraft 5, story 7)

Returning to the misty 1920s of the works of H.P. Lovecraft, the five fine fellows - Edward the author, Charles the dilettante, Howard the scientist, Richard the painter, and Warren the professor -come together for Edward's second chance to regale the group.

Edward has a manuscript that he says was entrusted to him by an aspiring author who encountered an indescribable evil in his days as a New York City police detective.

Warnings:  This is considered one of Lovecraft's more racist stories, and I have explored some aspects of this, rather than downplayed or removed it. 

For a first episode after many years, this ran a bit long.  Oops.

[Oops, I almost forgot to mention this:  
The book about the Yezidis is a real book on Project Gutenberg!!!
