Known as “The great ones” in the Cthulhu worlds, sleep and rest beneath the Pacific Ocean in his city called “R'lyeh”. According to the myth, when the stars stopped at the right place, the fallen city will rise again and Cthulhu will conquer the world again. Because the description of the great beings by H.P. Lovecraft is usually using many adjectives that are hard to tell what it’s talking about, I use AI drawing to create the feeling of “unnamable creatures” through the pictures.

Supernatural: Most well-known supernatural creature in Cthulhu mythos, one of the members of the Great old ones, they are the huge creature that has a residence on Earth for a long time, and once rule this planet. However, most of the Great ones have fallen into a deep sleep or defeated by other supernatural beings for now. Usually, the artists will draw him as a human body shape, but the skin is covered with fish scales, and having an octopus-like head, also having wings on his back.

Creativity: Cthulhu is the first supernatural character in Cthulhu mythos that has been designed by HP Lovecraft, and may be concerned as the keystone of the whole Cthulhu worldview. If there is no Cthulhu, all the Cthulhu mythos will never exist.

The deep ones are under the command of Dagon, the oldest deep ones of them all, also very religious to Cthulhu, the great old ones that sleep at the bottom of the sea. They are planning to conquer humanity by creating offspring by hybridizing with mankind, which will be not much different than the normal baby at first, but will become more alien-like step by step when they grow older; and then return to the sea to live with their own kind; using this way to "overflow the human population" then defeat the humanity.

The reason why I have created this collection is that I have a deep interest in Cthulhu mythos, but seems there are very less Cthulhu themed animation series. By the reason of I want to study animation in the future, I will like to make a Cthulhu-themed animation as an animator or join some similar topic project,  let me have a chance to introduce this amazing worldview and its stories to others. The research I have done for this collection project may provide me with enough understanding of Cthulhu mythos and allows me to keep researching this topic to achieve my goal, of making a Cthulhu-themed animation series in the future.

This collection includes the artwork and pieces I am interested in with my research about Cthulhu mythos. Cthulhu mythology was started and written by HP Lovecraft, a famous American horror fiction story writer who is also known as one of the most influential horror fiction writers of the 20th century, the first writing he published about Cthulhu was "The call of Cthulhu", a short story serialized in the horror fiction magazine "Weird tales" starting in 1928. His designs of the monsters inspired many artists and writers to do their creations. This compilation of the Cthulhu themed artworks shares three common traits:

Supernatural- surrealistic power or beings are included

creativity- Those are original characters and ideas created by many people, starting with HP Lovecraft and the after-writers.

Stories- These artworks can represent a story or have the potential to inspire others to create a story.
