First of all, Rick Ramsey won last week’s contest (the Dead But Dreaming 2 anthology).
So… new contest! No purchase or donation necessary to enter. Jason with Cryptocurium emailed me and told me that he’s willing to give away TWO Giant Chocolate Cthulhu Idols to a couple of lucky Lovecraft eZine readers! Here’s a picture:
This 7 ½ inch tall idol of “The Great Old One” is larger, more detailed and weighs in at a sanity shattering two pounds of solid chocolate!
As usual, this will be a random drawing, using a random number generator. To enter the random drawing, simply do the following:
- Become an email subscriber of Lovecraft eZine (top right corner of this webpage, it’s free). If you’re already a subscriber, you don’t need to do anything.
- Comment below (say hello, comment on the ezine… whatever!)
- LIKE Lovecraft eZine on Facebook (click here, OR, click the LIKE button on the top right side of this page). If you are one of the five people on the planet not on Facebook, then don’t worry about it, just fulfill the other two requirements.
That’s it! Pretty easy. On Friday, March 16, 2012, I will randomly pick TWO winners from the comments below. Good luck!

How in the hell did I not know about this page?! LOVE my Lovecraft & Poe.

The secret to ultimate enjoyment of the Cthulhu idol is to hollow it out slowly, eating the inside away while leaving the outer shell. You know, much as Cthulhu and his lot enjoy our minds. 😉

There may be some eldritch connection between the theobromine found in chocolate, and the sinister machinations of the Cthulhu Mythos deities as embodied in the form of dread Cthulhu. After all, “theobromine” translates to “food of the Gods!”
