Robert Bloch and the Cthulhu Mythos

3/11/2024
We’re back and we’re wondering what’s in this jar on our desk. The contents are murky, but it looks like it might contain the heart of a small boy. Robert Bloch swears by it, but... The post Robert Bloch and the Cthulhu Mythos appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

Psycho (1960)

2/26/2024
We’re back and we’re abluting with trepidation. It used to be that taking a shower was relaxing. We could just pull that curtain closed and enjoy the jets of warm, cleansing water. Since watching Psycho,... The post Psycho (1960) appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

Delusions in Call of Cthulhu

2/12/2024
We’re back and we’re rolling to disbelieve. Honestly, the world around us just becomes weirder and weirder with every passing year. A lot of this is probably down to age, but we can’t discount some... The post Delusions in Call of Cthulhu appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

Psychological Horror in Call of Cthulhu

1/29/2024
We’re back and we’re doubting ourselves. Well, that’s assuming we have any selves to doubt.

The Ghost of Listener Suggestions

1/15/2024
We’re back and we’re going through our mailbag again. It becomes a lot more manageable once we sift out the missives written in Aklo and other inhuman tongues. We’re not saying that what’s left is... The post The Ghost of Listener Suggestions appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth – Sequels and Adaptations

1/1/2024
We’re back and we’re heading beyond Innsmouth. The literal and metaphorical tentacles of the Deep Ones now extend far beyond the town’s limits.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 6

We’re back and we’re picking through the ruins. The US Federal Government may have bombed Innsmouth to smithereens, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still useful gaming inspiration to be found in the wreckage. From... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 6 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 5

12/4/2023
We’re back and we’re taking part in some self-reflection. It would just be a bit easier if our reflections didn’t keep changing. Maybe it’s inevitable once you get to a certain age. Your hairline starts... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 5 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 4

11/20/2023
We’re back and we’re playing hide-and-seek. No, hang on. That’s when everyone hides and one person goes looking for them. This is the other way around. There’s a name for that game, isn’t there? Oh,... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 4 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 3

We’re back and we’re enjoying a nice whiskey. OK, maybe we shouldn’t drink a whole quart of the stuff, but you’d do the same if you lived in Innsmouth. The alcohol fumes go some way... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 3 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 2

We’re back and we’re on a bus journey. Sure, this is a bone-rattler, but that’s like combining a gym visit and a massage, right? It certainly seems to have done the other passengers good. Have... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 2 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 1

We’re back and we’re sightseeing. Like most penurious writers, we’re doing so on a tight budget. Wasting money on expensive train tickets means that we won’t be able to afford the good cheese crackers for... The post The Shadow Over Innsmouth part 1 appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.

Mythos Deities: Yig & Ghatanothoa

We’re back and we’re petrified. It’s bad enough that you can become mummified by standing near Ghatanothoa, but being imperilled just by looking at his image is simply too much. And then we learn that... The post Mythos Deities: Yig & Ghatanothoa appeared first on Blasphemous Tomes.
