Okay, this is a musical Cthulhu inspired remake of “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas“. There’s clearly a mystery afoot and people with damage to their san totals. I’ve tracked this down to the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society who have been operating in an alternative universe since 1984. That makes a lot of […]

Right now, at the time of posting, this video can be watched anywhere in the world. It’s a clip from US TV in which Craig Ferguson interviews Neil Gaiman.

R’lyeh removed from Google Maps; some geek alternatives
It was once possible to find R’lyth, the home and resting place of Cthulhu, on Google Maps and on Google Earth. The video at the end of this post acts as evidence. Today it’s not possible to find R’lyeh on either of those two properties. Aww, shucks, Google. I hope you had good reason for […]

Cthulhu inspiration: Innsmouth Town Hall Meeting poster set
This is a clever idea from Etsy designer Narshero; a set of posters that lined up the Town Hall meeting of the good folk of Innsmouth. It’s a quiet town, but the locals aren’t too keen on strangers and certainly swift to anger. This set of posters, designed to be shown three abreast, was a […]

Second Conan the Barbarian trailer
By Crom! I won’t let this second trailer for the new Conan the Barbarian to slip by. This trailer seems to up the tempo for the move, showing not just some swords and sandels but some sorcerery as well. Looks like the Stygian Set lovers are at it again. I wonder what the tentacle beast […]
In Russia dolls unpack your mind
It was the Cthulhu version of these Russian nesting dolls that caught my attention however the whole collection is impressive. These are from a gallery at the Rothick Art Haus.
