"The Gorgon" by Clark Ashton Smith | Read by Jasper L'Estrange

A grieving traveller in twentieth century London, drawn to morbid curiosities, encounters a mysterious old man with an extraordinary claim. This original recording is an audio presentation by Jasper L'Estrange for EnCrypted Horror. “THE GORGON” by Clark Ashton Smith, 1932. CREATOR’S NOTE: These recordings contain sound effects and music because that’s what I personally like to listen to, and what I enjoy making. As you will see from the comments, a lot of the listeners also like it. If it’s not your thing, please feel free to listen to the many other narrators who are voice-only. You don’t even need to spend the time to tell me about it. Ditto your politics, a word you think I’ve mispronounced (trust me, I already know), the correct denomination of coin to put in a Christmas pudding. The mute button will be deployed. 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 Supporting my work If you like, you can donate in the following ways: Patreon:   / encryptedpod   YouTube channel membership:    / encryptedclassichorror   One-off donation: https://ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcast You can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!
