	References to the Cthulhu mythos - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Night in the Lonesome October by Roger Zelazny is about a battle between those who want to open the gate to the Elder Gods, and those who wish to keep it closed.
		In It, it is mentioned in the third interlude that in the town of Derry in 1930 lived "...that old geezer who paints those funny pictures and drinks all night at Wally's-Pickman, I think his name is." The reference is undoubtedly to Richard Upton Pickman.
		Night Gallery: This post-Twilight Zone vehicle of Rod Serling often made use of Lovecraft's short fiction, including adaptations of Cool Air, and Pickman's Model.

		Night in the Lonesome October : Richard Laymon
		There is not a moment when a female character is in a scene that Laymon doesn't start talking about her erect nipples or shapely buttocks etc. I don't mind the salacious writing, but it gets kind of tiresome and distracting after a while.
		The mysterious young girl that Ed also encounters during his night walks is another one-dimensional character who isn't what she seems (duh) and I started to wonder what Laymon was thinking when he concocted this story.

	Once Upon A Midnight Clearing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Poe relates a man’s nighttime walk through the misty woods of October along a path that eventually leads him to the tomb of his lost love, Ulalume.
		The poem was written shortly after the death of Poe’s young wife, Virginia, in 1847 and seems to be about the conflicting feeling he had at the time between devotion to her memory and the new romantic interests that had come his way.
		To that end, during a brief period of restored health after years of illness and depression compounded by alcohol, Poe announced a lecture to be given at the Society Library of New York.

		One late night he decides to take a long walk for donuts, and his ex-girlfriend's sorority sister (Eileen) decides to rescue him, and he becomes spellbound by a mysterious young woman (Casey) who likes to wander into strange houses and often plays truth or dare with the denizens of the night.
		Most of the novel takes place in night rambles in which Edward finds a serial killer, a mad bicycling granny, a pair of jeep riding sisters, and a clan of cannibal trolls who seem to work as the town's cleanup squad.
		Luckily Logan's October is less lonesome thanks to nubile young ladies such as Casey (the mysterious woman he follows,) and Elaine (mutual friend of his and Holly's).

		Kate Nepveu captured the feel of this book perfectly with her comment "The dog is a very low-key narrator." It's such a good description, in fact, that I'm blatantly stealing it for the lead-in to my remarks: the dog, Snuff, is indeed a very low-key narrator.
		The culmination of the Game is to come on October 31st; preparation takes place throughout the month, and to that end, the book is divided into 31 parts, in each of which Snuff describes what events of note have occurred in the preceding 24 hours.

		A NIGHT IN THE LONESOME OCTOBER Roger Zelazny Illustrations by Gahan Wilson A review by Ken Cox Wow.
		Well, to be honest, _A Night in the Lonesome October_ isn't comparable to _Lord of Light_ either, but it's definitely up there with _Roadmarks_ or _Jack of Shadows_ or _This Immortal_.
		The Gahan Wilson illustrations add an appropriate touch of macabre humor, although their placement could have been better -- one in particular is several pages _ahead_ of the corresponding text and rather spoils a surprise.

		Speaking from experience, it is my opinion that he merely did what many writers do - he drew on a single aspect of an existing character or situation, and from there went in a completely new direction to create a fresh and original story.
		That honor belongs to Snuff, Jack's faithful watchdog and stalwart companion, and it is through Snuff's eyes that we experience this sly and fun Zelazny adventure.
		"Jack is under a curse from long ago and must do much of his work at night to keep worse things from happening," says Snuff at the novel's beginning.

		But before he passed on, Zelazny wrote A Night In The Lonesome October, which I consider to be on par with his best work.
		A group of players gathers at a certain magical location, and on the last night of October when the moon is high, work to either open or close the door that separates our reality from that of the Elder Gods.
		One of the most amusing tricks Zelazny uses in telling his story is the conceit that each of the players has an animal familiar, and the familiars talk, deal, and squabble amongst themselves in a way that mirrors the larger narrative.

		What is different is that Claire is not only married when they meet, but is in love with her husband; that Jamie's younger than she is and a virgin; and that the story doesn't end when they eventually declare their love for each other.
		The plot tends to be a bit episodic, but all of the characters and dialogue are so vivid that you're pulled along regardless.
		This was her first book, which shows in the little awkward fluctuations in narrative voice; it's also firmly within certain subgenres, the confluence of which I am much less sympathetic to these days (namely the abused, completely beaten down child, the hopelessly naive fish out of water, and a girl and her horse).

		But where ANNO-DRACULA is a "realistic" novel of vampire control of Victorian London, A NIGHT IN THE LONESOME OCTOBER is a bizarre tale of a gathering in which some of the characters attempt to open a "doorway" to allow the Elder Gods to come to our world, and others attempt to keep the doorway closed.

		The quality is pretty awful as I took it with a digital camera and I refuse to read the instructional booklet and I only know how to take pictures at night with a 35mm camera, damn it, so I had to lighten it up in Photoshop which distorted the beauty of the moment a little.
