The Ancient Ones II

The Ancient Ones was Deadman’s Tome attempt at a Lovecraftian themed anthology, and the result was a well-received and highly rated Lovecraft tribute. We wanted to take another crack at it with Ancient Ones II by featuring a different assortment of tales that explore the unfathomable nightmares, the ancient ones, the alien gods from afar.

The Ancient Ones delivers a short but powerful collection of gripping Lovecraftian short stories.

The Ancient Ones II consists of seven Lovecraftian horror stories. The Keswick Oddity tells of detectives daring to face an unfathomable fear as they investigate a very unusual case. North by Due North puts military might against Ancient muscle in an epic battle. Something Eating At You tackles mystery and dread of the unknown. Pokethulhu modernizes Cthulhu mythos into collectible pocket monsters. The Prince dwells in the dread of the unknown as a man dares to learn about things he should probably leave alone. Delicious Meat introduces and explores a modern Ancient Ones cult, and A Gift from the Stars is practically a love letter from H. P. Lovecraft.

Also available in paperback

Cthulhu is Pleased… I hope

I wouldn’t want the ancient one pissed. We called for a vote for the best story in Cthulhu Christmas Special and we received a response of fifteen votes with Red Christmas in first place with 53%. Tony Evans wrote an entertaining story that ran parallel with certain War on Christmas themes that often creep up around the holidays, and people loved it. As a result, Tony will receive $20 in cash and a certificate that honors him.

Haven’t read Cthulhu Christmas Special? Well, I think I might have a link to that somewhere. Look below this sentence.

ThrowbackThursday: Scary Logos

It’s #ThrowbackThursday and time to look back at on the many things that have happened in the past! Let’s take a look at an episode of Deadman’s Tome podcast called Scary Logos! This episode featured The Dynamite Marchese and Raven McAllister, and together gloated about how well The Ancient Ones was doing, and dared to explore the conspiracy related to scary logos!

Having re-listened to this, it sounds like Cthulhu or people involved with Screen Gems tried to hack the stream! It could’ve been the Russians. I know, I know, easy target these days, but there is a strange scary logo from Russia with a weird, mysterious past. Raven talked about Roofwork and shared some interesting ideas about the scary logos and psychic vampires. Marchese admits he has a drinking problem. I stumbled upon Dinosaur Erotica which spawned the After Dark series.

Cthulhu Christmas Special

And Other Lovecraftian Yuletide Tales…

As kids we’re told that Christmas is a magical time when a mysterious man from a mysterious place sneaks into your home to leave gifts. But only, if you were good. Because this mysterious man, this Santa Clause, has been watching you the entire time. Santa sounds like a pervert. But what if this Santa, isn’t that Santa we were describe as kids? The fat, jolly man with a white beard. Last year, Deadman’s Tome explored the idea that Santa is actually Krampus, and had a great time doing so. This year we’ve drawn our attention to one of the biggest and baddest monsters of all time: Cthulhu. Who else would be capable of watching all, hearing all, and reading the thoughts of all? The real Santa is Cthulhu, and as kids we’ve been duped. Don’t believe me? You will after reading this!

Deadman’s Tome presents Cthulhu Christmas Special and Other Lovecraftian Yuletide Tales – a smooth blend of the holly jolly merry vibes of the holiday season with the dread and unfathomable horror of Cthulhu and Lovecraft. This collection of horror pairs nicely with a glass of eggnog, or if you prefer, a glass of whiskey. With over ten stories, this collection offers plenty for H.P. Lovecraft fans and general horror readers.
