We, all of us Lovecraftians, owe an inestimable debt to Marc Michaud. Spare him a thought as you sit down in your easy chair with a glass of sherry and your copy of “Midnight Shambler”.
Thanks, Marc. Thanks for the memories.
UPDATED list of Lovecraftian and Cosmic Horror movies. Over SEVENTY films!
Check it out at the link — and enjoy.
Also present is “The Whisperer Made Visible”, another Lovecraftian tinged horror original to this collection. This story alone, with its subtle machinations of malignant cosmic entities, makes the new collection worth its price…
John Shirley is one of the most versatile writers of speculative fiction working today, with seminal works in science fiction, fantasy, and horror. REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY WEIRD STORIES is a diverse collection of some of his best stories, and works to showcase the strength and breadth of his talent.
This book is a view into diverse worlds and important themes. There are world builders here, and these stories would last you an entire summer if you give them the time they deserve.
Listen to this 21-second clip from THE SEA OF ASH.
You’ll be glad you did — it’s an incredible book.

These are fine stories… that explore the darkness that lurks on the edge of our subconscious…
As with most PS Publishing volumes the production values for the book are high, with cover art by Marcelo Gallegos that invokes both wonder and terror…
The editors have chosen “Drunk on Dream” by Jeffrey Thomas to closeout the collection. It’s a superb little piece that reminds us why Thomas is so loved by his readers. It’s full of the ennui of modern life, and the joy that comes from the tiny seemingly insignificant fantasies that sustain us through the day when nothing else will, and the deep sadness – that strange melancholy that swallows us – when we are forced to abandon them.
I’m being interviewed tonight at 8pm Eastern (7 Central, 5 Pacific)! I hope you’ll join us.
The Lovecraft eZine is a free magazine, a podcast, an independent press, but most of all, it’s a community. A community of cosmic horror fans, weird fiction fans, general horror fans… and more.
There’s always something happening at The eZine, so join us! Here’s the schedule.
In some ways, this is an incredible book about growing old with the one you love.
Then things get weird.
I was particularly pleased with the description of two senior citizens struggling against an ocean enraged by both a hurricane and the presence of a nascent elder god.
There are relatively few books in which the elderly function as protagonists, and Schlossberg not only makes you care for the pair of them, but also makes their plight and actions in the face of a personal apocalypse feel perfectly appropriate and natural.
In which we talk to the creator of THE LEFT RIGHT GAME PODCAST, discuss horror in 2020, Paul Tremblay’s DISAPPEARANCE AT DEVIL’S ROCK, and talented writer Inna Effress. This blog post will change your life. 😉
A Lovecraftian orphanage, secret societies who contract deadly diseases on purpose, a black cat that retrieves the dying, a cannibalistic romance, and a strip club in Purgatory are just a few of the strange tales in this unique collection from Emma J. Gibbon!
We discussed the Lovecraftian Gods of Stephen King in the latest Lovecraft eZine podcast! Listen to it here, or on iTunes (search for “Lovecraft eZine podcast”).
This episode’s guest is Ellen Datlow, editor of CHILDREN OF LOVECRAFT, LOVECRAFT UNBOUND, LOVECRAFT’S MONSTERS, and many other books! A very interesting discussion: Ellen talked about her time at OMNI, how a writer gets on her radar, her work as a consulting editor at Tor.com, tropes she sees too much, and more.
