Ep. 293: DHP Halloween Special 2026

Join CJ as he reads the following Halloween-y poems & short stories:

  • “Halloween” by Madison Julius Cawein
  • “The Erl-King” by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
  • “The Music of Erich Zann” by H.P. Lovecraft
  • “The Vampire” by Madison Julius Cawein

“SOCJ!” — Save Our CJ (& the DHP!)

Due to events of the past couple months — including Mrs. CJ undergoing yet another spinal procedure the week before last! — CJ has not only been slowed down on multiple DHP projects, but, unfortunately, this has also caused his family to be in an acute financial emergency!

If you’re not in a financial crisis yourself, & you value the DHP & want to help it continue, (and/or if you care about CJ & want to help him out), please consider sending him a few bucks or quid or doubloons or denarii or whatever!

Many thanks to the amazing individuals who sent in contributions over the last couple weeks since DHP Ep. 292 was published – it was a huge help! Unfortunately, I still need a bit more help getting caught up on some essential bills ASAP, so please consider donating! Thank you! – CJ
