    Fuck Lovecraft.

    Anyways, I started reading The Light Fantastic and I spotted a parody called “Necrotelicomnicon” which is described of pages made of lizard skin.

      That’s from the Evil Dead movies (and TV series). It was inspired by Lovecraft, in that the book is called the Necronomicon, but that’s about as far as it goes.

          Like it or not, Lovecraft inspired a vast amount of modern horror. Yes, he was a horrible racist piece of shit. That can’t really be helped.
