What Is Lovecraft Country? (A Racial Horror Monologue) || The first episode of HBO’s show Lovecraft Country presents multiple facts, details and history about Jim Crow America, properly mixing in H.P. Lovecraft’s element of the supernatural. So in watching Jordan Peele, JJ Abrams and Misha Green’s TV series’ adaptation of Matt Ruff’s novel, I developed a monologue on how its tone of supernatural horror mixes perfectly with the era’s breakdown of racial horror.
