Rolling on the Floor Laughing Face“@WickedReading horror bingo - Water setting - Hard mode: Majority of the story happens directly on/in water Why did I find this so funny? The Germanisms of the main character were shocking but so funny to me at the same time.”

About H. P. Lovecraft

H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was born in New England, a landscape that he turned into a stage of fiction. His stories inherited the tradition of gothic horror tales from authors such as Edgar Allan Poe, but Lovecraft set his own standards. His first stories appeared in  , a pulp magazine. “The Call of Cthulhu” (1926), a short story about a monstrous deity that inhabits the Earth, is the base of the myths related to the Cthulhu Mythos, a genre of horror fiction launched by Lovecraft. In its world, populated by beings of other dimensions, the laws of humanity are worthless. But man is incapable of understanding its insignificance in the face of the magnitude of the cosmos.
