ARTICLE>> https://screenrant.com/lovecraft-stories-movie-adaptations-need-modern/

H.P. Lovecraft was known for his fantastical novels, whose influence has bled into the cultural perception of horror, making them perfect for modern movie adaptations. Lovecraft is undoubtedly a flawed and prejudiced figure in literature, and any undertaking to adapt his stories should acknowledge the issues of racism, xenophobia, and homophobia in his work. Bringing Lovecraft into the modern era means doing his work justice, as well as exploring how they can be made more reflective of the present day.

The Ballad of Black Tom by Victor LaValle is a novella that reimagines H.P. Lovecraft's "The Horror at Red Hook" from the perspective of an African-American protagonist, Charles Thomas Tester, in 1920s Harlem. The story follows Tommy, a street hustler who navigates the city's racial tensions and occult circles while dealing with his own struggles and the looming threat of a catastrophic event.

> People move to New York looking for magic and nothing will convince them it isn’t there.

>Charles Thomas Tester hustles to put food on the table, keep the roof over his father’s head, from Harlem to Flushing Meadows to Red Hook. He knows what magic a suit can cast, the invisibility a guitar case can provide, and the curse written on his skin that attracts the eye of wealthy white folks and their cops. But when he delivers an occult tome to a reclusive sorceress in the heart of Queens, Tom opens a door to a deeper realm of magic, and earns the attention of things best left sleeping.

>A storm that might swallow the world is building in Brooklyn. Will Black Tom live to see it break?”

> Weird Tales is widely accepted by cultural historians as “the first pulp magazine to specialize in supernatural and occult fiction,” points out The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (though, as we noted before, an obscure German title, Der Orchideengarten, technically got there earlier). And while the magazine may not have been widely popular, as the Velvet Underground was to the rapid spread of various subgenera of rock in the seventies, so was Weird Tales to horror and fantasy fandom. Everyone who read it either started their own magazine or fanclub, or began writing their own “weird fiction”—Lovecraft’s term for the kind of supernatural horror he churned out for several decades. > > Fans of Lovecraft can read and download scans of his stories and letters to the editor published in Weird Tales at the links below, brought to us by The Lovecraft eZine (via SFFaudio). > > ... > > Fans of early pulp horror and fantasy—–or grad students writing their thesis on the evolution of genre fiction—can view and download dozens of issues of Weird Tales, from the 20s to the 50s, at the links below: > > The Internet Archive has digitized copies from the 1920s and 1930s. > > The Pulp Magazine Project hosts HTML, FlipBook, and PDF versions of Weird Tales issues from 1936 to 1939 > > This site has PDF scans of individual Weird Tales stories from the 40s and 50s, including work by Lovecraft, Ray Bradbury, Dorothy Quick, Robert Bloch, and Theodor Sturgeon. > > And to learn much more about the history of the magazine, you may wish to beg, borrow, or steal a copy of the pricy collection of essays, The Unique Legacy of Weird Tales: The Evolution of Modern Fantasy and Horror.

Summary

• James Wan faces challenges in adapting Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulhu due to its complex cosmic horrors and limited commercial potential.

• Lovecraft's stories, including Cthulhu, have not been fully realized on screen due to their unimaginable cosmic entities and non-traditional storytelling.

• Wan's blockbuster success with Aquaman and trendsetting in horror may give his Lovecraft adaptation a better chance than Del Toro's failed attempt.

There are certain things human beings don't even have the capacity to imagine, let alone render artistically. And yet... they still try. This is our attempt at trying to understand why.

Turns out, you don't have to look much further than H.P. Lovecraft to find a reasonable answer.

> > We've been checking out the latest games and we think we've come across a game that will not only suit those of you who love horror, but also for fans of the famed horror writer H.P Lovecraft. Titled as 'Innsmouth', this latest game by Bitfans, is a brand new ZX Spectrum 48k and 128k Adventure! An English and Spanish Lovecraft game in which you are to delve into the dark tale of a coastal town plagued by hidden secrets and indescribable horrors. To coincide with this news, we've got a bit more about the story as well as a new trailer.

The Dreams in the Witch House is a short story by H. P. Lovecraft written in January/February 1932, it was first published in the July 1933 issue of Weird Tales. The story was probably inspired by the lecture The Size of the Universe given by Willem de Sitter which Lovecraft attended three months prior to writing the story. Several prominent motifs—including the geometry and curvature of space, and a deeper understanding of the nature of the universe through pure mathematics—are covered in de Sitter's lecture. The idea of using higher dimensions of non-Euclidean space as short cuts through normal space can be traced to A. S. Eddington's The Nature of the Physical World which Lovecraft alludes to having read in his letters.

The Dreams in the Witch House By H. P. Lovecraft

Synopsis -

Walter Gilman, a student of mathematics and folklore at Miskatonic University, takes an attic room in "the Witch House", a house in Arkham thought to be cursed. The first part of the story is an account of the history of the house, which once harboured Keziah Mason, an accused witch who disappeared mysteriously from a Salem jail in 1692. Gilman discovers that for the better part of two centuries many of its occupants have died prematurely.

!

The dimensions of Gilman's attic room are unusual, and seem to conform to a kind of unearthly geometry. Gilman theorizes that the structure can enable travel from one plane or dimension to another.

!

Shortly after moving into the attic Gilman begins experiencing bizarre dreams, in which he seems to float without physical form through an otherworldly space of unearthly geometry and indescribable colors and sounds. Several times in his dreams he has nightly experiences involving Keziah Mason and her rat-bodied, human-faced familiar, Brown Jenkin, which he believes might not be dreams at all. In other dreams Gilman is taken to a city of the "Elder Things"

!

On May Eve (Walpurgis Night), Gilman dreams that Keziah and Brown Jenkin are sacrificing the kidnapped child in a bizarre ritual. He thwarts Keziah by strangling her, but the cursed rat manage to complete the ritual, then escapes into a triangular abyss.

!

Awakening, Gilman hears an unearthly sound that leaves him deaf. He tells fellow boarder Frank Elwood his horrific story. At night he starts screaming. Elwood running in Gilman's room witnesses his horrible death.

!

EXTRA -

!

"The Dreams in the Witch House" was made into a short segment for Showtime cable television's Masters of Horror series, directed by Stuart Gordon, under the title H. P. Lovecraft's Dreams in the Witch-House.

"Nyarlathotep" is a prose poem/short story by H. P. Lovecraft written in 1920, and first published in the November 1920 issue of The United Amateur. It is the first mention in fiction of the Cthulhu Mythos entity Nyarlathotep.

Short story by H.P. Lovecraft

Synopsis - The story is written in first person and begins by describing Nyarlathotep's arrival in the narrator's city. A "man" of the race of the Pharaohs, who claims to have been dormant for the past twenty-seven centuries, and travels from city to city demonstrating his supernatural powers. Wherever Nyarlathotep went, the inhabitants' sleep would be plagued by vivid nightmares.

!

>Art of Jens Heimdahl

The narrator's attende at one of Nyarlathotep's demonstrations, in which he defiantly dismisses Nyarlathotep's displays of power as mere tricks.

!

>Illustration de Katharsisdrill

The party of observers is driven out of the hall by Nyarlathotep, and hysterically insists to one another that they are not afraid, and that the city around them is unchanged and alive, even as the electric street lights begin to fail.

!

The party wanders off into at least three columnal groups: One disappears around a corner, from which is then heard a moaning sound; another disappears into a subway station with the sound of mad laughter; and the third group, which contains the narrator, travels outward from the city toward the country.

!

The story ends by describing a series of horrific, surreal vistas experienced by the narrator, in which chaos and insanity pervade an ancient, dying universe ruled by mindless, inhuman gods, whose messenger and "soul" is Nyarlathotep.

!

Extra - Nyarlathotep appears in numerous subsequent stories by Lovecraft, and is also featured in the works of other authors.

Nyarlathotep, again manifested in the form of an Egyptian Pharaoh when he confronted Randolph Carter as an avatar of the Other Gods, executing their will on Earth and in the Dreamlands (HPL: The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath).

The witch Keziah Mason (who has made a pact with the entity) introduces Walter Gilman to Nyarlathotep in the form of "the 'Black Man' of the witch-cult," a black-skinned avatar with the appearance of the Christian Devil (his footprints suggest cloven hooves instead of feet) associated with New England witchcraft lore (HPL: "The Dreams in the Witch-House").

The being of pure darkness dwelling, possessing a "three-lobed eye", in the steeple of the Starry Wisdom sect's church is identified as another manifestation of Nyarlathotep (HPL: "The Haunter of the Dark").

Nyarlathotep's name is spoken frequently by the fungi from Yuggoth in a reverential or ritual sense, indicating that they worship or honor the entity (HPL: "The Whisperer in Darkness").

The Festival By H. P. Lovecraft

Synopsis - The story is set at Christmas time. An unnamed narrator is making his first visit to Kingsport, Massachusetts, an "ancient sea town where my people had dwelt and kept festival in the elder time when festival was forbidden; where also they had commanded their sons to keep festival once every century, that the memory of primal secrets might not be forgotten." The town he comes to, which shows little sign of habitation, seems centuries out of date,He locates his relatives' house, which has an overhanging second story, and is greeted by an unspeaking old man. At the stroke of 11, he is led outside to join a "throng of cowled, cloaked figures that poured silently from every doorway", heading to the "top of a high hill in the centre of the town, where perched a great white church."

!

The procession enters a secret passageway below the crypt, eventually coming to "a vast fungous shore litten by a belching column of sick greenish flame and washed by a wide oily river that flowed from abysses frightful and unsuspected to join the blackest gulfs of immemorial ocean."

!

"something amorphously squatted far away from the light, piping noisomely on a flute"

The Nameless City is a horror story written by H. P. Lovecraft in January 1921 and first published in the November 1921 issue of the amateur press journal The Wolverine, then in Fanciful Tales, Fall 1936, and in the Volume 32 of Weird Tales in the 1938. (Link Here). Lovecraft said that the story was based on a dream. It is often considered the first Cthulhu Mythos story.

(source wiki)

Story by H. P. Lovecraft

Plot - The unnamed narrator of the story goes into the middle of the Arabian Peninsula to seek out and enter a lost city. The protagonist states: “ It was of this place that Abdul Alhazred the mad poet [author of the Necronomicon] dreamed on the night before he sang his unexplainable couplet:

"That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die."

!

>The Nameless City by Alexander J

After hearing a clanging seemingly coming from deep inside the earth, the narrator inspects mysterious carvings and ruins until nightfall. The narrator discovers a cliff riddled with low-ceilinged buildings, unfit for human use. While he attends to his suddenly nervous camel, the narrator discovers a somewhat larger temple, with altars, painted murals, and a small staircase going down.

!

>The Nameless City, art by Sprech4

After he descends, his torch dies, and he crawls on his hands and knees until he enters a hallway with small wooden coffins containing bizarre bodies inside of them lining the walls. The narrator notices a large amount of light coming from an unknown source. After crawling to it on his hands and knees, he sees a large brass door with a descent into a misty portal...

Historical Lovecraft was published by Innsmouth Free Press on April 20, 2011. It was edited by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Paula R. Stiles. Subtitled Tales of Horror Through Time, this is a history-themed anthology with stories taking place in various time periods, chronologically ordered into three sections: "Ancient History", "Middle Ages" and "Modern Era". The theme was partly inspired by the editors' historical interests and partly from Lovecraft's extrapolations of frightening pasts for humanity that extended back to the Paleolithic and even further.

Short story By H. P. Lovecraft

In the isolated, desolate, decrepit village of Dunwich, Wilbur Whateley is the hideous son of Lavinia Whateley, a deformed and unstable albino mother, and an unknown father. Strange events surround his birth and precocious development. All the while, his sorcerer grandfather Old Whateley indoctrinates him into certain dark rituals and the study of witchcraft.

Wilbur ventures to Miskatonic University in Arkham to procure their copy of the Necronomicon. When the librarian, Dr. Henry Armitage, refuses to release the university's copy to him, Wilbur breaks into the library at night to steal it. A guard dog, attacks Wilbur with unusual ferocity, killing him. When Dr. Armitage and two other professors arrive on the scene, they see Wilbur Whateley's horrible corpse before it melts completely, leaving no evidence.

Weeks later the Whateley farmhouse explodes and an invisible thing rampages across Dunwich, cutting a path through fields, trees, and ravines, leaving huge "prints" the size of tree trunks. The invisible creature terrorizes the town for several days, killing two families and several policemen, until Dr. Armitage, Professor Warren Rice, and Dr. Francis Morgan arrive with the knowledge and weapons needed to stop it.
