This is a video in my Speculative Fiction Studies series, which examines and analyses key aspects of classic and contemporary works in the genres that fall under the broad rubric of speculative fiction. This includes fantasy, science fiction, horror, alternate history, weird, cyberpunk, utopian, post-apocalyptic, and superhero fiction, among other genres
This video focuses on Howard Phillips Lovecraft's story The Call of Cthulhu, a classic work of cosmic horror and absolutely central to what will later come to be called the Cthulhu mythos. It discusses what we learn of the cult of Cthulhu (and to a lesser extent) the other Great Old Ones, which according to the information provided by Castro, has existed among human beings from the start, spurred by communications in dreams from the Old Ones and the idols of them brought down from the stars. In the story, we learn of chapters of the cult existing in Greenland, Louisiana, the mountains of China, the south seas, the deserts of Arabia, and potentially other locations.
