Lovecraft Mythos - Cosmic Horror

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.
Rules:
- Please NO "Call of Cthulhu RPG" content (there are other great groups)

- Where possible share the link to the authors or the sources

First I would suggest an Elder Sign instead of a boring old pentagram.
Anything related to tentacles/octopi/fish could be used as decoration. ... Or for those that know their Lovecraft: a big penguin.
The name Innsmouth or Miskatonic University could be written somewhere (Innsmouth Inn on a sign?).
And of course using a big old tome somewhere! You can make it out of a painted box and seal it with hairspray to use it outside.
