On the Subject of the Necronomicon Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes Mod The Necronomicon On the Subject of The Necronomicon Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn. The module consists of a book, containing a portion of Abdul Alhazred’s “The Necronomicon” (original title: Kitab al-Azif), a cryptic manuscript containing many secrets of the cosmos. Its presence has caused a disturbance in the time-space continuum, resulting in the opening of a gate to The Dreamlands. In order to disarm the module, perform the correct incantation to close the portal and save all of Humanity! To perform an incantation, open the book in a specific chapter for a period of 5 seconds. Performing an incorrect incantation will cause a strike and forcefully close the book. Press the book’s cover to open it. The top of each page will display its chapter number. To turn a page, press its bottom right corner. If you find a page containing only 8 large symbols, you’re at the edge of madness. This is as far as you are able to study the book. Staying in this page for more than 5 seconds will always cause a strike and trying to turn it will forcefully close the book. In order to determine the correct incantation, you must first determine the origin of this copy of The Necronomicon. Refer to “Guide to The Dreamlands” in order to do this. Then, determine which chapters are eligible to contain the correct incantation using “Chapters of The Necronomicon”. Finally, consult “Closing a Gate” to determine chapter priority. Unfortunately, this excerpt of The Necronomicon is not written in its original Arabic or in any other human language. It is written in R’lyehian, an ancient cosmic language of which we know very little. Refer to “R’lyehian Glyphs and Vocabulary” to help translating any text.

The priority sequence starts in the cell in the outermost circle corresponding to the worshipped Great Old One, proceed inwards until you reach the circle corresponding to the book’s place of origin. Then, follow that circle clockwise. The correct incantation is in the first chapter that appears in this sequence and that is both in the book and that meets its condition for having the correct incantation. If no chapters in this sequence meet the requirements, the correct incantation is the chapter that comes first in ascending numerical order and that meets its condition for having the correct incantation.

  • Mi-Go 1 Mi-Go
    Mi-go 1 Mi-go An interpretation of the Mi-Go by Ruud Dirven Mi-go ("The Abominable Ones") is a Himalayan nickname for a race of extraterrestrials in the Cthulhu Mythos created by H. P. Lovecraft and others. The name was first applied to the creatures in Lovecraft's short story "The Whisperer in Darkness" (1931), elaborating on a reference to 'What fungi sprout in Yuggoth' in his sonnet cycle Fungi from Yuggoth (1929–30) which described the contrasting vegetation on alien dream-worlds. Summary The "Mi-go" are large, pinkish, fungoid, crustacean-like entities the size of a man; where a head would be, they have a "convoluted ellipsoid" composed of pyramided, fleshy rings and covered in antennae. According to two reports in the original short story, their bodies consist of a form of matter that does not occur naturally on Earth; for this reason, they do not register on ordinary photographic film. They are capable of going into suspended animation until softened and reheated by the sun or some other source of heat. They are about five feet (1.5 m) long, and their crustacean-like bodies bear numerous sets of paired appendages. They possess a pair of membranous bat-like wings which are used to fly through the "aether" of outer space (a scientific concept which is now discredited). The wings do not function well on Earth. Several other races in Lovecraft's Mythos also have wings like these. The Mi-go can transport humans from Earth to Pluto (and beyond) and back again by removing the subject's brain and placing it into a "brain cylinder", which can be attached to external devices to allow it to see, hear, and speak.

P. Lovecraft’s late style in delineating the cosmic horror, At the Mountains of Madness poses several questions, the most interesting of which may concern the story’s narrative efficacy in evoking horror that has been presented in the form of science fiction or, to be more precise, in scientific realism. The pivot of this narrative revolves round the novelette’s central sections (7 and 8) where a genealogy of the sentient entities that precede humans’ earthly emergence is recorded. Whether the genealogical enveloping of the cosmic other can summon up the cosmic horror as is textually intended, and what function the enveloping plays against the backdrop of the story as a whole—these will be the main concerns of this paper. Key Words: horror, science, supplementarity Received April 7, 2008; accepted June 10, 2008; last revised July 10, 2008 Proofreaders: Jeffrey Cuvilier, Hsueh-mei Chen, Chia-chi Tseng, Ying-tzu Chang 2 EURAMERICA I H. P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness is one of his longest works, at around 50,000 words, which would have made it suitable for publication as a single-volume novelette. Yet ironically, by the time of Lovecraft’s death in 1937, only one book with his name stamped on cover had been published (Joshi, 1999: 264).

  • The Weird and Monstrous Names of HP Lovecraft Christopher L Robinson HEC-Paris, France
    names, Vol. 58 No. 3, September, 2010, 127–38 Teratonymy: The Weird and Monstrous Names of HP Lovecraft Christopher L Robinson HEC-Paris, France Lovecraft’s teratonyms are monstrous inventions that estrange the sound patterns of English and obscure the kinds of meaning traditionally associ- ated with literary onomastics. J.R.R. Tolkien’s notion of linguistic style pro- vides a useful concept to examine how these names play upon a distance from and proximity to English, so as to give rise to specific historical and cultural connotations. Some imitate the sounds and forms of foreign nomen- clatures that hold “weird” connotations due to being linked in the popular imagination with kabbalism and decadent antiquity. Others introduce sounds-patterns that lie outside English phonetics or run contrary to the phonotactics of the language to result in anti-aesthetic constructions that are awkward to pronounce. In terms of sense, teratonyms invite comparison with the “esoteric” words discussed by Jean-Jacques Lecercle, as they dimi- nish or obscure semantic content, while augmenting affective values and heightening the reader’s awareness of the bodily production of speech. keywords literary onomastics, linguistic invention, HP Lovecraft, twentieth- century literature, American literature, weird fiction, horror fiction, teratology Text Cult author H.P. Lovecraft is best known as the creator of an original mythology often referred to as the “Cthulhu Mythos.” Named after his most popular creature, this mythos is elaborated throughout Lovecraft’s poetry and fiction with the help of three “devices.” The first is an outlandish array of monsters of extraterrestrial origin, such as Cthulhu itself, described as “vaguely anthropoid [in] outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hind and fore feet, and long, narrow wings behind” (1963: 134).

As a young writer looks into the history of the abandoned church — and the cult that once resided there — he stirs an ancient horror. Will he be able to finally solve an unspeakable mystery, or has he merely paved the way to become its next victim? This episode is an adaptation of HPL's last story. It is the favorite tale of many Lovecraft fans, and its themes of immigration and xenophobia, religious freedom and newspaper sensationalism seem shockingly relevant today.
