"Under the Pyramids" by H.P. Lovecraft and Harry Houdini [audio recording]
In 1924, Weird Tales published a story by the world famous magician Harry Houdini entitled “Imprisoned with the Pharaohs.” In truth, this story was written by H.P. Lovecraft with some initial ideas provided by Houdini, who is also the narrator of the tale—presented as a genuine encounter that Houdini experience in Egypt in 1910. The story has also been called “Under the Pyramids” and “Entombed with the Pharaohs.” This is a story that predates Call of Cthulhu and the Shunned house and At the Mountains of Madness and yet is arguably represents a subtle turning point in Lovecraft’s oeuvre.
