How Big are the Largest creatures in Cthulhu mythos Books?

[@miriamemanueleforneris3701]

Cthulhu Monsters are beyond dimensionality itself

[@Cthulhu_the_Librarian]

It definitely helps me travel faster and I don't even have to use my American express card

[@miriamemanueleforneris3701]

​@@Cthulhu_the_Librarian yup, trains are not really trust-worthy

[@EverettLobotomy]

@miriamemanueleforneris3701 especially not those warp trains that claim to be beyond dimensionality and able to take you anywhere in a few seconds, but actually just take you outside of time where you're stuck there for thousands of years in your perspective and lose your sanity and can't even die because of the lack of time causing your biological processes to not be able to cease functioning. Yeah, you'll arrive to your destination in a few seconds, but it never said a few seconds in *your* perspective. It's a scam.

Nyarlathotep, Hastur...these descriptions are based on the avatars of physical depictions of themselves that they presented to the viewer at the time. Hastur's sign alone can manifest infinite pocket dimensions each filled with "infinite universes which were born grew and collapsed in the blink on an eye" per the story 'Farm'....and anyone who's seen S1 of True Detectives got a glimpse of Hastur as the star eating cosmic void in the vision Cohle had. These aren't entities that can be simply measured and scaled like Kaiju

[@Shugg-Goff-HHoffical]

An accurate description of The King In Yellow. Also would add The Carcossa is him and he is Carcossa it is his kingdom which he manifests wherever he goes, bringing all to slavery and subduction through their fears. Yellow is his colour after all. Nylarhothep: The Crawling Chaos - The Regal Purple of raw vital organs, a three legged insectile with a twitching tapered tendril for a head craved deep an anguished toothless maw. The Black Pharaoh - 10ft-15 tall Obsidian Egyptian God-King accented only in gold. Accursed Riches and Treasure are his curse to turn man against man. The Mocking Man - He manifests as anyone and everyone you see and know all sporting the same an impossible knowing sadistic smile drinking in your misery. The Whisper In The Dark - A living Shadow that shapes it's self from any shade cast no matter how small it knows everyone's deepest darkest secrets and torments you by whispering the knowledge of them in their ear at night and their dreams.

[@KrautGoesWild]

And somehow a being referred to as "King in Yellow" even made it into Warhammer 40K...

[@vitaliyred622]

Warhammer ripped literally EVERYTHING from anyone, then they say the IP and names belong to them.

[@AsierEtxeberria]

@@vitaliyred622 Yeah, like how they copyrighted Eldar after stealing it from Tolkien.

[@KaijuBiologist]

Very well done.

[@soulreaver1983]

Epic video many thanks

[@mindq4328]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@SavannoBaalphegore]

Well there are some missing like Yig, father of snakes, but in general i have to say that some of the are way smaller than i though, like Tsathoggua for an example, but i have to say how hilarious the cut in size with cthulhu came. Just before it were a tiny indy and suddenly 4 skyscrapers xD

[@eziomorte3380]

Cthulhu (probably adding some later iterations ftom Lovecraft's friends expanding the Mythos) could be as small as man and as big as a continent, he could just simply change sizes at will.

[@georgeolaroiu3807]

Can you make Creatures from Amphibia on Disney Channel next!!

[@georgeolaroiu3807]

Do make Origin Of Manticore!

[@kyleepratt]

This size Cthulu would have significant gravitational pull. I did some rough math, and if you were near it's center of mass (against its chest or abdomen), you'd have in the ballpark of 1-3lbs of force pulling on you, just from Cthulhu. Wild!

[@mindq4328]

Yeah it would be a crazy experience

[@EdKolis]

If that's the case, wouldn't standing at the base of a mountain have a similar effect?

[@kyleepratt]

@ it does! There are multiple experiments showing the gravitational pull of large mountains! It’s so cool 😃

[@georgeolaroiu3807]

Great!

[@EdKolis]

Dreams the spacetime continuum into existence? So Lovecraft invented the simulation hypothesis?

[@Arkayjiya]

Hinduism did that long before. And we can't really be sure which person or religion started the idea, it might be as old as humanity itself.

[@gabbonoo]

@@Arkayjiya old as dreaming... or being able to differentiate dreams from waking mind

[@georgeolaroiu3807]

Only 5 gods are so powerful beign

[@jamesporquez3682]

They can change their sizes every time they are summoned in rituals.

[@loriswilliams5481]

Hey when are going to get some Ray Harryhausen monster review

[@luigistar7017]

What music do you use for your intro?

[@georgeolaroiu3807]

Do Yokai Japanese mythology

[@ytmndman]

I thought that Tsathoggua was created by Clark Ashton Smith.

[@1982ShannonH]

Didn't mention Yog Sothoth. . . 😢

[@mindq4328]

Yes, i did, just before Azathoth along with the other outer gods real forms

[@davidmorcombe6779]

@@mindq4328 so you made a mistake here, yog is everything and everything is yog. the entirety of existence is yog sathoth

[@1982ShannonH]

@@mindq4328 My apologies. I watched again and you did place Yog. Must have missed it first time. 👍

[@crossfire7474]

Hmmm... Exterminatus?

[@ThPhysics]

It's all cool and whatever, but can he beat Goku

[@RobinTheMetaGod]

Goku solos basically every current fiction.

[@TheGate777]

Excuse my english but what the hell is the Nameless Mist and what peaple said that thing is the father of Yog Sothoth when Lovecraft said that Yog doesn't have any parents??

[@francescosirotti8178]

Lovecraft mentioned the Nameless Mist in a family tree of Azathoth. (HPL: Selected Letters of H. P. Lovecraft 4.617). The Nameless Mist was given the name "Nyog'Sothep" and "N'yog-Sothep" by later authors. How much seriously you want to take that, given that HPL himself is in the tree is up to you. The "extended" mythos are somewhat weird...

[@Northen_Nazgûl]

You forget the order universe himself the Yog Sothoth

[@mindq4328]

Yes, i did, just before Azathoth along with the other outer gods real forms

[@Northen_Nazgûl]

​@@mindq4328 btw why is with other gods; Yog isn't the gate of the Void himself;

[@ЯрославЛ-ф1ж]

Is pretty big. Shame about the hydrogen bombs ripping them to pieces regardless though.

[@organicketchup5171]

The thumbnail shows the BK as half a mile tall. It's only about 800 meters.

[@EdKolis]

Half a mile is about 800 meters...

[@swanofnutella4734]

Cthulhu is NOT 2 miles tall. If a modest size boat can split his head open, as it does in the story, that makes no sense at all. A few men opened the door from which he emerged. Though the opening moved smoothly on a fulcrum, ....if he were 2 miles tall ...the doorway size required would be so massive, it never would have OCCURRED to those men that said opening even WAS a door. Ridiculous.

[@beaggyboy]

Errh.., why is Dr. Henry Walton Jones Jr., (a highly celebrated pop-culture movie's "fictional" character-icon of a stand-alone other franchise) posing on the pages of a Lovecraftian monster glossary ? Erh, Hehჳ.., Okay, jokes aside, I got it. That was so much just for comparative purposes.😂

[@Edward-Slug]

I find these monsters lazy. They are all either human shaped or blobs with tentacles or some kind of mist or cloud. Or a mixture.

[@brightestlight9462]

you'd prefer a monster thats just some mouth-face with sharp teeth and long limbs? lmfao

[@cjxgraphics]

Well, they were created about a hundred years ago, by a guy who was afraid of ocean creatures, and air conditioning.

[@RICOFRITO]

Also they were mostly indescribable they were given some description in the books but they are so otherworldly and incomprehensible in human terms that it will drive you mad. But artists like to show what they look like with a limited human mind. So artist depict them differently, if you were from the 1920s this was horrifying stuff!😮😅
