>>97848342You know the thing that made Lovecraft work was that although people meme him to be the ultimate "you can't describe the monster" writer he was actually very good at designing monsters.
Shoggoths, The Great Race of Yith, Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, The Elder Things, the Flying Polyps, they all have really distinct really clear designs. If someone showed you Cthulhu you'd know you're looking at Cthulhu. If someone showed you a Yith you'd know you're looking at a Yith.
People that think "it can't be described so its scary" is good writing need to be educated.
