Lovecraft Mythos - Cosmic Horror

724 readers

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.

I'like you all here, Im a big HPL fan. I've read and reread everything he put out excluding the letters, and I'm always interested to read other authors works that reference directly or indirectly Lovecrafts mythos. A few personal Favorites are ' A Colder War' by Charles Stross and 'N' by Stephen King. I just can't get enough of esoteric cults, elder gods and Things Man Was Not Meant to Know.

What are your personal Favorites from outside Lovecrafts main body of work?

Great movies. I also suggest Spring (2014).
