  TweetI think my favourite line in this 2009 animation about Lil Cthulhu is this; “Uh-oh! Lil Cthulhu is hungry after his long nap. What does he do? He eats his followers! They love Cthulhu and want to be eaten. Their souls make his tummy happy.” Worst joke? That the Crawling Chaos is so-called because the [...]

• Dice bring Steve Jackson and Cthulhu together in one video

  Games
  

  TweetOkay, so based on this video evidence it seems unlikely that Steve Jackson is Cthulhu.

• Cthuugle: Cthulhu search engine

  Sites
  

  TweetCthuugle is a search engine that, as you will hopefully assume, restrict itself to H.P. Lovecraft themed sites. Looks a lot like Google, doesn’t it? That’s why its covered in legal disclaimers. You may think Google has a sense of humour but they take their brand very seriously. Mystery Google had to be renamed several [...]
