Tentacritters

Lovecraftian monsters

H.P. Lovecraft is a horror writer from the state of Rhode Island (from which youngliterati also hails), who often wrote of slimy creatures that unsuspecting humans would unwittingly discover, ultimately meeting their demises. These creatures were often portrayed with cephalopoid features, such as slimy skin, squid eyes and tentacles, and octopuslike heads. We will occasionally post a drawing of one of his fantastic aberrations.

Examples:

Azathoth

Yog-Sothoth

Nyarlathotep
