Nifty free font pack from the H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society (Mac and PC fonts available). I particularly like the text snippets that they used to illustrate the different font samples.
Another spooky Hallowe'en treat: HarperCollins has made available Neil Gaiman's A Study in Emerald as a free audiobook! (unabridged, large MP3)
We had the good fortune to hear Neil read this (well, most of it, anyway) at Torcon in 2003. I can still hear him saying, to the unfortunate timekeeper who was trying to clear the room for the next session, "They will kill you, you know."
If you're not the audiobook type, there is a PDF file of the story available at neilgaiman.com, but then you won't be able to hear Neil's lovely voice. (5 MB PDF file)
And if this wonderful Holmes/ Lovecraft pastiche is to your liking, pick up Fragile Things (new paperback reprint edition) for more goodies, including October in the Chair, Forbidden Brides of the Faceless Slaves in the Secret House of the Night of Dread Desire, and How to Talk to Girls at Parties.
The Elder Gods just haven't been getting enough attention lately. Via BoingBoing: H.P. Lovecraft: florid genius or horrific hack? Discuss.
