H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.

Wow. $3 a week. I wonder what the average grocery spend was in the 30s.

$3 in 1932 is worth $69.56 today

So, cheap, but not amazingly so. Plenty of families in the US work with much less than $10 a day
