Imprisoned with the Pharaohs by H. P. Lovecraft and Harry Houdini

First published in Weird Tales in 1924, IMPRISONED WITH THE PHARAOHS (thelovecraftvault.bandcamp.com/album/imprisone…) is a first-person tale ghostwritten by H. P. Lovecraft for the escapologist Harry Houdini. In the story, Houdini recounts how, while visiting Egypt, he is kidnapped and thrown into a deep shaft beneath the Great Pyramid of Giza. Struggling to escape, he encounters vast underground chambers filled with monstrous, half-human entities and glimpses a colossal, ancient presence tied to Egypt’s forgotten gods.
