China Miéville, the extraordinary British weird urban fantasy horror author, talks about H. P. Lovecraft’s The Horror at Red Hook.
Daikichi Amano (whose real name remains a mystery) is a very secretive paranormal investigator from Japan who uses the cover of this fake “artistic” website to publish the results of his investigations on the very popular cult of Cthulhu and Dagon in his homeland.
In his latest update, he displays the horrors of human sacrifice, a widespread practice among Nipponese cultists, and gives us the rare proof that the Deep Ones aren’t just a myth invented by H. P. Lovecraft in his description of the terrifying town of Innsmouth.
Let’s have a look at his new findings:
After catching a group of Deep Ones in its nets by accident:

this grisly group of saddened cultists:

was forced to offer a human sacrifice to appease its feared Gods’ wrath:

As the tradition wants it, the poor girl was methodically tortured and cephalopodically suffocated:

She finally died in a pool of her own blood mixed to the replete octopi’s gooey slime:

only to be resurrected as a Hybrid a few days later in one of the cultits bathtub:

We can only hope that Daikichi Amano’s true identity will never be revealed and wish that his amazing work of publishing the secret horrors that are perpetrated behind our dull backs will never stop.

The ever perfect Grim Reviews have dug out a fantastic filmed interpretation of HP Lovecraft’s Azathoth story:
Between the Stars, producer Djie Han Thung (1998)
Book cover design by whoisnot, who cowardly pretends the book doesn’t exist…
An exercise in surreal digital book cover design and photomanipulation.
The book – Cthulhu Smokes Dreaming – does not exist, as far as I know… at least I haven’t written one titled so. But who knows what might happen (or might have happened) in the Lovecraftian Dreamlands?
