0:00.0	And the The Hello everyone and welcome to the exciting conclusion of H.P. Lovecrafts, The Call of Kethulhoo,
0:36.2	which is a horror genre short story by the American writer, H.P. Lovecraft.
0:41.7	Written in the summer of 1926, it was first published in the Pulp magazine
0:45.6	Weird Tales in February of 1928. The inspiration for this story came from a number of
