Lovecraftiana - A Tribute To H.P. Lovecraft and The Cthulhu Mythos
Updated: 8/2/08

I've always been a fan of the gentleman author, and I've always wished I could imitate him somewhat when I write. Unfortunately, I also wish I could string two sentences together coherently, and since this is true I know I'll never be able to entertain you with a chilling story. Instead, and although I have led the life of someone who could be a lead character in the old man's tales, I've decided to put up this tribute page. So, this is a tribute page to the mythos that had its genesis in the writings of my favorite author, and yes I know that he didn't conceive the "Cthulhu Mythos" as it exists today, but he is the source of it all.

I hope these pages will be appreciated by any Lovecraft fan who cares to stop by. They may even be valuable for those who play mythos oriented RPGs. I certainly hope you find something useful here, but if you don't then please try to come back at some point, for I plan to add more to these pages as time allows.

I had planned to write a bit more of an introduction, but I must soon leave the office. Even now I can hear a vague call from the treeline that lies north of this place, and there also seems to be an odd mist forming at one of the right angles on my ceiling. Better safe than sorry, so I'll say "goodbye."

I hope to see you again. Or as is said in some circles, "Ia."

Updated! Abijah's Hoadley's Sermon Revealed

Entitled The Devill And His Imps Are Alive And Well In Dunwiche, this is a version of the Reverend Abijah Hoadley's memorable sermon that he preached the Sunday before he disappeared. It is not readily apparent whether this copy differs substantially from the published version at Springfield, assuming that such a version really exists (and was not created by Lovecraft himself). The copy on these pages was transcribed from notes taken by one Mrs. Catherine Whately. She was a member of the Congregational Church at Dunwich at the time of the Reverend's disappearance (1747).
