The beast in the cave: Reading notes

For these reading I read the beast in the cave by HP Lovecraft. This reading tells the story of a man lost in a cave while on a hiking tour. He is left alone and is certain he will die of starvation. At a last desperate effort to get help from the tour guide he starts yelling for help. This attracts a beast that the man can only hear getting closer but cant see it. As it gets closer the man throws a big stone at it and seems to wound it, he then runs away and luckily finds the guide. They then back track and go try to find out what the creature was. Upon finding and observing the injured creature they make the shocking realization that this creature is or at one time was a man.

This story could spark for a interesting storytelling opportunity. The story could feature the creature and his background and how he got to the cave.
