He’ll be high on the list for sure. Eventually they will go for almost everything that existed before their takeover.

During his time there was a huge fear of the “outsider” That what all the monsters are - outsiders, aliens, foreigners, strangers with different faces reflecting the fear of the time he wrote in. The “Zeitgeist” if you will.

I don’t think we need to worry about that for a while, because to even be aware of Lovecraft would require... Literacy.

My mom has a cookbook called “Ni—ertoe Cookbook”. It’s all about cooking with Brazil nuts. It’s 80+ years old.

“The Rats in the Walls” is named Nigger Man.”

One of the truly terrifying tales written by Lovecraft, along with Dreams in the Witch House.

Back in 1962, I was reading Lovecraft in Carlsbad High School and one of the girls laughed at me for reading it. I then challenged her to read the first story, “TE RATS IN THE WALLS.” She did, and cussed me out good and said she could not sleep at night for hearing the “rats”.

Still got his books and read them often.

They’re remaking the movie about the dam busters. Only problem, Wing Commander Guy Gibson’s dog’s name. It was a black dog.
