The Mainstreaming of Lovecraft’s Creations
<\/a><\/strong> Format: Panel
31 Oct 2019, Thursday 17:00 – 17:55, Marquis 1-3 (Marriott Los Angeles Airport Hotel)

Cthulhu and his fellow Elder Gods have found a new life in stories, popular culture, animation, games, songs, and even toys long after HP Lovecraft’s death. The Mythos are often mashed up with other creations as in the collection Shadows over Baker Street and The Adventures of Tintin at the Mountains of Madness. What accounts for the enduring popularity of the Mythos?
