by Zombie Carter on October 28, 2012 at 11:04 pm
Posted In: Blog, Poetry and Stories of the Living Dead

Space Eldritch is an anthology of Lovecraftian horror and Science Fiction.  It’s written by some kickbutt author friends of mine.

My own humble contribution is the cover for this outstanding literary work of fiction…. (At least it’s fiction for now)  Stories are written by the amazing talents of:

You can read samples of these stories at Cold Fusion Media.

Space Eldritch is available for your e-reader at Amazon and Smashwords for a paltry $5.99.  It will be available soon from Barnes & Nobles and I have it on good authority that it will be available in glorious analog ( format soon.)

What Happens In Innsmouth Stays In Innsmouth

What Happens In Innsmouth Stays In Innsmouth

What Happens In Innsmouth Stays In Innsmouth.  So Innsmouth is kinda like Vegas only there’s no gambling, brothels, and everything smells like fish.

I realize that today’s comic is going to be a little hard to get unless your a H.P. Lovecraft fan like I am.  However I’m also willing to bet that a higher than average percentage of my readership not only know about lovecraft, but probably also have read the story “A Shadow Over Innsmouth.“  If you haven’t read it then you really should.  It’s a quick read and a good introduction to early American horror writing.

While you’re at it check out some of his other stories worth reading:

  • At The Mountains of Madness
  • Herbert West: Reanimator (One of the earliest zombie stories and pretty influential on me)
  • The Call of Cthulhu
  • The Colour Out of Space
  • The Rats in the Walls

Those are just some of my favorite stories, for a complete list that you can read of H.P. Lovecraft’s works go here.

You may notice lately that I am on a bit of a Lovecraft kick right now.  Don’t worry we’ll be getting back to a more zombiecentric comic soon.  I’m just expanding the tiny world that my webcomic inhabits a bit.  The zombie road trip will roll on soon enough.

For now enjoy your stay in Innsmouth.

Innsmouth: The Ultimate Vacation Destination

Innsmouth seams like a great place for a vacation home

Innsmouth seams like a perfectly reasonable place to have a vacations home.  Great sea air, plenty of fresh seafood.  I see no downside to this.

Lets not dwell on the horrifically interbred deep ones and how they will one day rise up and kill us all.  Zombies are a more immediate threat.

 

I love all things Lovecraftian.

Lovecraftian Horror

Lovecraftian Horror

Lovecraftian Horror meets the zombie apocalypse in today’s comic. Our zombies invade Innsmouth for some cross genre horror.

For those of you not familiar with Innsmouth, it comes from a story “The Shadow Over Innsmouth” The Novella was written in 1931 by the great and powerful H.P. Lovecraft. It’s always been one of my favorite stories.

Lovecraftian horror holds a special place in my cold dead black heart. It’s not that it’s particularly scary. It’s just that it has these themes and moods to it that really appeal to me when I look for good horror.

I love the ideas about lost crumbling civilizations and unimaginable horrors trying to get back into our world. It has an overpowering theme that mankind is accidental and inconsequential in an vast unfeeling and uncaring universe.

It’s the same feeling I get when I visit my in-laws for the holidays, but with fewer tentacles.

Christmas Will Drive You Insane… Only The Insane Have The Strength To Survive Christmas

Posted In: Uncategorized

I truly truly hate Christmas music, it’s so damned boring it will drive you mad. So what’s more appropriate than to have some H.P. Lovecraft inspired Christmas carols to help you embrace that madness.

From the Album “A very Scary Solstice” which you can purchase from Cthulhulives.org

Zombie Nation Citizen Mike, “The Mothman”, sent me this one that I thought was pretty good too. Thanks, Mike, you’re awesome.
