Fhtamily Cthurcle: Cthulhu Mythos/Family Circle mashups

I know I’ve already featured one of these brilliant mashups from Accordion Guy, but it’s Halloween and these images are unutterable shadow-paintings from beyond the veil. So there.

Cthulhu fhtagn! Fhtamily Cthircle!

Yog Sothoth ain't gonna save ya, kid.

advice show o’ the day: Calls for Cthulhu!

When you’re at the end of the line and you just don’t know where to turn, you might as well throw yourself into the insatiable tentacles of the utter horror which is the Great Old Ones. In fairness, Cthulhu is a more attractive host than Howie Mandel.

Edgar Allan Poe’s The Tell-Tale Heart

 Lynd Ward's Song Without Words...but ya just KNOW they'd be creepy, if it did have 'em!

This is a beautiful and sophisticated vintage animation of Edgar Allan Poe‘s The Tell-Tale Heart. The illustration hearkens back to the early days of the Thirties, and particularly reminds me of my copy of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, which is illustrated by the American Lynd Ward.
