Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn.
‘In his house at R’lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming.’
If you can’t wait until August for dread Cthulhu to rise at PulpFest, then head for Portland, Oregon later this month for CthulhuCon. It will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel at 1441 NE 2nd Avenue on April 25th & 26th. Featuring two days of panels, readings, art, film, and music, this year’s convention celebrates twenty years of Lovecraft in Portland.
If your tastes are more geared toward THE CASE OF CHARLES DEXTER WARD, then head to San Pedro, California and the Warner Grand Theatre for the sixth annual Los Angeles edition of the H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival. There will be performances by the Macabre Fantasy Radio Theater, author signings, gaming, films, and more. The festival will run from May 1st through the 3rd at the Warner Grand, located at 478 West 6th Street in San Pedro.
These are just two of the many celebrations of Lovecraft that will be held throughout 2015, including PulpFest’s own salute from August 13th through August 16th at the Hyatt Regency hotel in downtown Columbus, Ohio. We hope to see you there for our celebration of “The Copernicus of the Horror Story.” To learn more about PulpFest 2015, click here.

‘That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.’
