Strode College in Somerset, England had an Art & Design Department fashion show with recycled cardboard. They want you to think this is merely an octopus eating a guy’s head. I love the little touches like the sucker-mark and the torn clothing that led up to the head-eating. Nicely done. I’m sure the Cthulhu Cult…
Contribute to the development of the Trail of Cthulhu Character Generator and you could get killed or have your town destroyed in a Trail of Cthulhu supplement. Response to this has been so enthusiastic that it’s almost hit its goal after only a day. Well done, Pelgrane!
I almost regret that someone jumped in to tell these folks that Delta Green is fiction. . . . It sounds too weird to be true, but then again… The Nazi-Antarctica connection…it’s hardly ever talked about something big had to be going on down there. The info raises a lot of questions for me: Is…

Carbon dating has established it was written the early 15th century, earlier than previously thought. Despite centuries of work, cryptographers are no closer to unlocking its…
What would happen if typical Call of Cthulhu players became typical Call of Cthulhu investigators, and they had a very forgiving gamemaster? The Last Lovecraft, that’s what. It’s an indie comedy about modern-day gamer nerds, Great Cthulhu, Deep Ones, and fish rape. Look for a full review in The Unspeakable Oath soon.
From Yog-Sothoth.com: After more than a decade, the the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society have decided to reopen membership to the public. “When the HPLHS was first formed in the 1980s, we offered members cool certificates and membership cards.

We all know Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise crazy. Is that the right kind of crazy for Lovecraft? James Cameron tells MTV that he’s trying to seal the deal to have Tom Cruise star in Guillermo del Toro’s film adaptation of At the Mountains of Madness. “I don’t think we have a deal with him yet,…
