H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.

I found this good one online. Anyone want to try making something up? I'll give it a go.


Hours after the anomaly Matt nervously glanced at the battery icon of his VR interface and asked his friend in the VR chatroom, "Won't it help to get in a dark basement or something and not look outside?"

His friend replied with a flat voice, "Josh was here with me in the bunker when his VR died out ...all i can hear was his scream, and now everything feels wet ...and slimy"

After a while a strange chant woke me from my slumber on the sofa, odd word-like sounds was echoing in the apparent and my attention was soon driven to the television streaming a strange black screen video on YouTube titled "The Call of the Awakening".

As I reached for the remote to turn it off, I realized that what I was moving was no longer a hand.
