"The Cyclopean Codex" gathers a selection of rare and unsettling stories from the shadowed fringes of weird fiction—tales in which scholars, dreamers, and ordinary souls alike find themselves drawn toward forbidden knowledge: a cryptic text glimpsed through impossible geometry, a sealed casket exuding the rot of primordial ages, a jar that should never be opened...

0:00:00 - Introduction
0:00:32 - Through the Alien Angle
"A man and his quest for a book that will assist him with a class paper."
0:11:38 - The Sealed Casket
"The icy fingers of a fetor that was old when the world was young reached for the life of the scheming Wesson Clark."
0:31:22 - Out of the Jar

"The story of a TV presenter who encounters a malign spirit in a cemetery."
2:00:44 - The Death Watch
"What ghastly thing was it that came clumping into the big house out of that wild night of storm?"
2:34:25 - The Tomb from Beyond
"Long-lost civilizations may have possessed enigmatic abilities far beyond our understanding."

5:50:21 - Spawn of the Green Abyss
