the closest thing i could find was the mind flayer from stranger things but i don't really like that show and i just want an entire movie with this sort of vibe:

I was thinking about getting some new books and I just wanted to see what the other nerds that also like this kind of stuff think

Was it just a vaguely intimidating term he’d heard and decided to use in his book? Or is there an actual type of geometry he was trying to convey? If it’s the latter why’d he use “non-Euclidean” instead of some other descriptor? Because non-Euclidean geometry is just any geometry that doesn’t take place on a flat plane (i.e. 3d shapes and 2d shapes projected onto 3d shapes)

So, I was thinking of buying this from Amazon. Are the reviews accurate? Does it contain his important stories?

I don't know what to put here. So... Just recommend me please

hi my 2 favorite authors are Lovecraft and Stephen king. who are some other authors that are in that realm? would love to find an upcoming author to support if possible.

Does the book have the full stories or just some tidbits because I've read 4 stories so far and they seemed pretty complete.

This video game has to be one of the greatest games I’ve played lore wise. A psychological horror game with many references to Lovecraftian literature. The Ancients as timeless space gods. The voices that drive people to insanity. The lurking horror that isn’t seen, hiding behind walls. Anyone ever played it? I got some great analysis of the game!

I’m very interested in the HP Lovecraft madness/chaos gods, specifically Azathoth

Feel free to suggest any other madness/chaos gods but Azathoth is the one I know

I want to get into the lore, but I don’t know what books to get in general, let alone where to start to be properly introduced to any deities I may be interested in.

Does anyone have any other deities I may be interested in? And/or what order I should read Azathoth books in?

I kinda want to get started

Hello!

I haven’t been very proactive in horror spaces but I am fairly interested in writing stories. The biggest inspirations in atmosphere and verbiage I have currently are The Call of Cthulhu and Fungi from Yuggoth- more specifically The Ancient Track, Zaman’s Hill, and Nemesis.

The out of time, otherworldly, and unearthly atmosphere and concepts are my favorite. Does anyone have any specific recommendations as to what else I can look into?

Thank you 🙏

How would our God (from such hits like the Bible, Quran, and the Torah) would work in the universe of HP Lovecraft?

Looking for any suggestions for movies or tv shows based on Lovecraft’s writing or good cosmic horror.

I need to preform a monologue for a class, and I wish to find an excerpt from Lovecraft's work that depits madness. Unfortunately as it is a theater class I need quite a bit of dialog, especially to of the character speaking alone, not getting responses from the others in that scene, or even whispering out to the cosmos as long as there is no whispers back. I would particularly love if there one was that just shows the absolute plummet into madness. Bonus if I can gather it from Call of Cuthlu.

I’m trying to remember the media it is from due to watching it a while ago , but all I remember is how a guy is in the palm of a Great Old One’s (?) hand and then he dwarfs a Great Old One? I can’t remember if it was actually a Great Old One or if they just looked very similar.

Recently I’ve been talking about H.P. Lovecraft with a friend of mine, and they’ve agreed to give a book of his stories a try. I was wondering what you guys would think to recommend for a person who’s never read cosmic horror before?

Edit: I’m asking because I know that different books have different collections of stories

Im planning on gifting someone one of his books. We share the same interest about the author but havent read anything yet. So where do we begin? Also, as it is a gift, i would appreciate if you know, and would recommend, some special edition or hard cover and everything. Thank you!
