Why has this got such a low score?
I really enjoyed this, good to see some actual animation and art on newgrounds rather than a tweened triangle. I'm not sure about the story, and the sound was a bit crackly with some dodgey transitions but over all its a very nice piece of work. Good stuff!

THE BACKGROUNDS...ARE AMAZING <3333
You beam with potential
You gave this story a great ending. It's true classic horror. The backgrounds were magnificent. I love the gothic look of them. You have talent and you should definitely continue with animation. If you got together with a voice actor you could create some really interesting flashes. Of course, I think part of what made this flash so good was the lack of sound effects and voices. By the way, RadWalrus helped to make sure this flash didn't get lost in the depth of NG. I'm glad he did.
Classic H.P. Lovecraft
For those of you trying to interpret the story in terms of classic or modern fantasy... stop it. H.P. Lovecraft's stories are often formulaic but they are not subjective. By the way I loved your rendition of the protagonist's room, which I think was influenced by "The Dreams in the Witch House". Your illustration of what I can only think were "the old ones" was spot on, though it bothered me how quickly the protagonist picked up on the language and hieroglyphics of the occult...
I love your artwork
But the story wasn't that clear, and the animation was missing something, even though it wasn't bad it just....urrgh i don't know it's just....that type of style you have, but keep it up, i want to see more from you!
