		(Cthulhu is generally thought of as a "he" for some reason.) From time to time R'lyeh comes to the surface, and Cthulhu's dreams influence sensitive individuals across the globe to depict his image, slay, and found cults dedicated to him.
		These people point out that "Cthulhu" is hardly the most important creature in the Mythos universe, and have proposed an astonishing array of names to describe the same pantheon.
		Cthulhu is a large green being which resembles a human with the head of a squid, huge bat-wings, and long talons (true, that doesn't really resemble a human, but bear with me here).

	Gaslight digest of discussion for 98-oct-27, pt. 1
		Main interest now in the story is REH's contribution to grimories of the Mythos, Nameless Cults by Von Junzt (story might be in one of the newer Howard collections) http://www.baen.com/catalog/rehoward.htm BTW, my favorite Halloween symbol is the trees and all the leaves on the ground.
		A less famous Lovecraft story I quite like, in part because it's outside the Cthulhu Mythos (I like those, too, but I also like the offbeat) is In the Walls of Eryx.
		I know some people think Lovecraft is overblown or too florid in his wordage but personally I love the constant use of the word eldritch and find few of his imitators ever up to his standards in sheer scare staying power.

	Allen Varney: Cthulhu Lives!

		The Mythos is populated by many lesser figures: Dagon, whose Deep One servitors are the fish-people mentioned above; Hypnos, god of sleep; the Mi-Go, or Fungi from Yuggoth (i.e., Pluto), insectile things that steal brains and store them, still living, in cannisters; plus shoggoths, shantaks, dholes, flying polyps, nightgaunts, dimensional shamblers, and other cheery folks.

		These people point out that "Cthulhu" is hardly the most important creature in the Mythos universe, and have proposed an astonishing array of names to describe the same pantheon.
		I tend to define a "Cthulhu Mythos" story as one which includes an imaginary element (character, god, book, place) from other accepted Mythos stories (springing originally from Lovecraft's stories which include either Cthulhu or the Necronomicon).
