Publisher Description
The Scarlet Gospels takes listeners back many years to the early days of two of Barker's most iconic characters in a battle of good and evil as old as time: The long-beleaguered detective Harry D'Amour, investigator of all supernatural, magical, and malevolent crimes faces off against his formidable, and intensely evil rival, Pinhead, the priest of hell. Barker devotees have been waiting for The Scarlet Gospels with bated breath for years, and it's everything they've begged for and more. Bloody, terrifying, and brilliantly complex, fans and newcomers alike will not be disappointed by the epic, visionary tale that is The Scarlet Gospels. Barker's horror will make your worst nightmares seem like bedtime stories. The Gospels are coming. Are you ready?

“John Lee’s performance will chill listeners to their marrow as he narrates in emotionless tones. Lee’s sonorous voice is perfect for the bloodcurdling magicians, demons, and supernatural creatures who hunt Harry and his friends. Lee breathes life into each character with different accents and varied interpretations. This collection of tales of the Hellraiser series is for listeners with strong hearts and a love of the horror story. Crude language is interspersed with graphic descriptions of torture and death. Listen with the lights on.”

“A kind of blasphemous version of Paradise Lost, otherworldly history repeating itself as gory farce…Barker fills this large canvas with an impressive amount of action and infernal spectacle and recaptures…some of the rollicking, berserk quality that made his early stories so distinctive.”
