Even though I passively encounter Cthulhu Mythos inspired movies and media when I was younger, I only truly came to understand after playing a dating Sim game in my teens and one of the answers for the girl was that HP Lovecraft was her favorite author. So eventually I looked him up and then I discovered the Cthulhu Mythos.

The Video game Bloodborne(2015) Is heavily inspired by the Cthulhu Mythos. Complete with great old one and dream realms and a zone that is ripped straight from the shadow over innsmouth. One of the final bosses The moon presence takes a form similar to that of cthulhu or nyarlathotep. The games shift from Gothic to cosmic horror is nothing short of a masterstroke. There are dozens of video essays on KZbin about bloodborne and it influences. I highly recommend as a game and as a prime example of lovecraftain horror.

@sonofamitch9856 жыл бұрын
I get that the whole appeal of cosmic horror is its so unimaginably beyond us and understand that. But i think bloodborne justifys it to a certain degree. For one a good portion of the game we are on the trail of a group of people trying to ascend to become a old one, some succeed we find(rom) and we attempt the same. The only truly powerful old one we fight is the moon presence. We are told the amygdalas are "lesser" and simply servants of the nightmares(not inculcating patches worship). And the orphan of cos is simply a child of a Deep one(or a human ascended witch ever theory you like). So the only real old god we fight moon daddy but at that point we are close to ascending ourselves.

It’s weird a lot of people seem to think of Cthulhu as this all-powerful, incomprehensible form. He’s described to have a form, there’s statues of him that describe him as the classic winged tentacle-mouthed monster we all know and love, and he’s far from the most powerful of the Lovecraftian gods.

Going by the Call of Cthulhu, the statues are meant to be poor representations of him.

The testimony of the sailor makes it pretty clear he’s meant to be incomprehensible.

I suggest the Widdershins books, aka the Whybourne and Griffin series. They are a long series of mystery novels, sometime vaguely in the late 1800's to early 1900's, all involving Lovecraftian horrors, magic, and the supernatural. They feature Whybourne, a painfully introverted doctor of language and hieroglyphs, alumni of Miskatonic University, and closeted gay man, working on various translations of ancient texts in the museum of his hometown, the fictional New England port of Widdershins. He meets Griffin Flaherty, a private detective who is investigating a case of the supernatural, and trying to come to terms with his past traumatic experiences of eldritch horror (and another closeted gay man), who needs Whybourne's help translating texts relevant to his case. They then go on to have a long continued series of books where they defeat cultists, discover monsters, do rituals, travel the world, and have gay sex. Is it romance? Is it horror? Is it a damn good time? Yes to all.

I dont like the idea of Cthulu being an alien. I prefer the view where the Old Ones are primordial beings that reside between the dimensions.

I see what you mean but that makes them aliens by definition lol just cosmic godlike aliens.

I remember a version of Cthulhu from the Ghostbusters cartoon. He was scary.

months ago I had a dream almost as if I made a telepathic connection with a creature at the bottom of the sea. It's road was sooo loud that it shook me to the core. I was seeing everything that it was seeing from small tiny bulb shaped jellyfish to the blackness of the deep depths of the sea. the connection was strong but I managed to break it. I never wanted to experience something like that ever again but now that I understand him more I get his purpose the old ones are returning soon.

Just to comment on the star born race that revere Cthulhu, Id like to interpret their accession as the priest came about them and either indirectly or directly influenced their evolution into something similar to himself. That his powers changed them over time and molded them into something of his image. Sorta like the Reapers from Mass effect re-purpose anything that comes into contact with them to suit their needs. Love your channel! definitely a new favorite of mine! much love from Canada.

First exposure I had to the mythos was an episode of The Real Ghostbusters. Come across it in my studies regularly. It's fascinating and frightening all at once, which seems part of the point.

i have recently developed a fascination with H.P Lovecraft. , having recently bought his Necronomicon( a.k.a, the best, weird tales of H.P.Lovecraft) when i came accross it among some books i was putting on display in a charrity store where i work. . one can draw paralels between his work & that of J.R.R Tolkien, in that both these authors invented their own, fascinateing fantassy worlds, inhabited by extraordinary creatures & people, which make their stories utterly fascinateing & absorbing. Lovecraft's where aimed at adult readers, while Tolkiens where written with the younger generation in mind, but these mythical realms make their stories totaly absorbing & irrisistable!

There's a game known as The Calling of Cuthulu. I don't believe its out yet, but its worth looking into.

Yep. . I have tonput this HERE too, so Back in the 60s My Gran used to say "Everytime the World Opens itself to us, it swallows a few". I never did get past how absolutely CREEPED out it made me feel, as She'd WINK as she said it...... It always made me think of those horrid fish. Down in the darkness, with their luminescent LURES, just waiting.
