  • All I know is this makes it sound like something badass is about to happen and I can't wait.

  • Yea! Yea! nos coptus rane sok marainy dor selokora. Mog mia vade in trane..

  • yeah what recksub10 said

  • no wonder tey hate man .they are ugly as fuck ..buety may only be skin deep but ugliness goes right o the fucken bone....these cunts dont stand a chance against us .thats why they hide and we rule the surface ..they have some idiots doing their bidding but they are all cockjockeys that shiff goats arses .they are isane cos they take orders from a big ugly fucker..we have nuclear bombs what do they have ,magic ,that we can use against them aswell .get on your knees demon,we have the keys

  • @reksub10 in the end we all will be on our knees awaiting our inevitable demise

  • @XxemodeathorchestrxX yep so true and so will they ,,when we come back as masters of light ...lol stay safe friend ...,p.s. what does the H.P. in H.P. lovecraft stand for ..i always thought tha lovecraft was code for sexmagik...the worship of cuthulu i was told is the closest thing youll get to real magic all else stems from this .is this true? im new to this so forgive my ignorance....cheers

  • @reksub10 Depends what you read into it. Lovecraft actually IS a sex shop in Soho, London LOL and a lot of writers/artists/musicians have found sexual undercurrents in his work. He always claimed that it was fiction, and not being a believer of Astrology, Magick, occult, etc...

    Through a weird coincidence his wife met Aleister Crowley, a notorious British Magician.

  • @wandererlain yeah i know of crowley ,thelema and cos juimmy page from led zep is into his work and bought crowleys boleeskine house at loch ness not far from where i live...love craft is a great name for a soho sex shop loli think H.P. lovecraft stands for high powered sex magik lol,yeah they always deny what theyre into ,cheers for info

  • @reksub10 LOL Humans are such funny creatures!

  • @reksub10 Nuclear weapons mean nothing when the Old Ones can attack you MENTALLY from another dimension!

  • @wandererlain yep so true ,who knows what they will be like .well get our asses kicked big time

  • wow is the only word i can luster from this!!!

  • You're going to need a bigger boat...

  • @MdP2 HAAAA! Jaws reference!

  • @MdP2 We're talking Old Ones, the bloody Death Star isn't big enough.

  • @MdP2 aaaaaaaw dang it, so no ferrys?

  • 2012, perhaps the stars are right then XP

  • @void735 Yes, indeed. We can hope... Could be the start of a new Age that Lovecraft mentioned somewhat cryptically.

  • @wandererlain orthe beginning of the end... im not so worried really. all this talk about humanity will end in a few million years. giving the earth back dosent seem so bad

  • @void735 No one knows, if we're honest, if there are Gods who are out to send us mad and take over. It's all metaphorical. I don't think the planet Earth being obliterated will mean the end of life because it carries on regardless. But then again, who said the Old Ones wanted to blow it up? Everyone has their own interpretation. To me, it's the threat of madness creeping up you... Lovecraft had a fear of losing himself, so to speak.

  • @wandererlain indeed, though i never saw madness as an error more like " free from emotion!" and in lovecrafts books, everyone who (sees the truth) goes mad. mabey madness is only the awernes or something

  • @void735 Yes, the only awareness. The Ultimate Knowing! Consciousness! Imagine a world without boundaries? Chaos!

  • To accept the tenets of science so trivially is a religion unto itself; clinging to it as a newborn clings to its mother, blocking out all other media so as to create for oneself a bubble of comfort.

    Only to have that bubble explode fantastically when something we can't explain rears its horrific head.

  • @117ty *smiles * I was speaking of this to my parents the other day.

  • @117ty Soon enough.

  • Comment removed

  • God, Nox Arcana songs are ALL amazing, none of them are bad!

  • aaaaaaaaww great song great great soong *-*

    Ps.: cthulhu is fuckin ugly O_O :P 

  • wut is the cthulhu?

  • @TheAnimefreak69 You have some reading to do, my friend.

  • Ia! Ia Cthulhu! The gates are opening!

  • ia ia scubbadiva

  • amazing pictures! it's astonishing what humans can imagine based on real live creatures!

  • all this dark stuff is truly fascinating...though none of it is real. all the monsters, gods and other aberrations come from our madness, ignorance and fear or from the people's desire to escape their dull existence, to belive there is more to this univers than most of us can see...

  • @2010Astarte and i suppose you know exactly what is out there? perhaps people fear monsters for a reason? fear at times is a good defence that keeps most of us alive. i say ignorence is closing your mind to what could be out there, not opening it to what could be out there. and madness? perhaps madness is not believing all this is out there? perhaps it is out of fear, that we try to pass off these monsters as false. and there is ALOT more to this universe then we can see. ALOT more...

  • @Corruptedcross01 friend, there is indeed ALOT more to this universe than we can see. i never said there wasn't...i 'm sure that out there there are many other creatures. if u're looking for monsters just open your eyes : there are monsters all around you, monsters with human faces. the world is filled with them...it is them you should watch out for. there is no point in living our lives in fear of the dark and the unknown. we are all meant to die anyway, thus we will all get to know it.

  • @2010Astarte people do not fear the dark, they fear what could be in it. and through personal experience, monsters and no i dont mean evil corrupt humans, i mean monsters, things that twist light and shadow, things that creep out of the darkness, things that twist dreams into nightmare, and feed on peoples fear and madness. beings that walk in and out of what we call reality, and existence. through personal experience i know these things exist.

  • @Corruptedcross01 lmao...whoa, i guess IT IS ALL IN U'R HEAD!...no, I just keed, don't mind me...everyone of us has such terrifing experiences at a certain point in their lives, it's only natural. fear of the dark, fear of things that lurk in it, fear of the unknown are all one and the same because they are tightly connected, one causes the other. and mankind always had these fears...

  • @Corruptedcross01 sometimes, under the cover of darkness, when we are very afraid,our greatest fears come to life. our minds tend to play tricks on us by distorting the reality, transforming things such as the shadow of a tree or the light of a passing car into nightmare creatures. after all, they don't say for nothing that 'fear is the mind killer'. real life is not like that movie 'nightmare on elm's street'. nightmares and illusions can't crawl out of the shadows to get you...

  • @2010Astarte can't they? i remember once, i was in my grandma's house, it was a large house. and i walked down stairs, and there was a being about 8ft tall. his head was a deerskull, he was wearing a huge fir coat, his hands where jet black and jagged. behind was always blackness, and talked in a dark horse voice. he talked of future events, that did and are actually happening. he also made beings out of shadow, that walked and interacted physically interacted with the environment. what is it?

  • @Corruptedcross01 well, you certainly made me curious...tell me more about that! how exactly did this happend and what did you feel when you saw this apparition?

  • @2010Astarte i don't know how it happened, it said something about me insulting it in a past life or something rediculous like that, i dont know i wasn't paying attention to it, although i do remember it saying several times "revenge". and when i saw it, i felt sick, it also felt like some kind of energy was crushing me from every direction. then i ran. this being has come back several times, and has even attacked family and friends. then something changed, oh its quite different now.

  • @Corruptedcross01 whoa!...i can't say i've ever had such an experience. i won't comment anything on what u said u've seen, but i know i belive that some of us are connected in some way to the other side. some call it a gift, others don't even recognize it. all i know is that the human beign is not as limited as most would think. now, i don't know about monsters...

  • @2010Astarte this being talks about realities and existances, he says that every time a being comes up with an idea, that idea becomes a reality, an existence, and sometimes that reality can interact with this one. but then again, what is and isn't a monster comes down to the individuel's opinion. in my opinion, beasts like, vampires, werewolves, the boogey man, the kraken, sea serpents, and such are not monsters, humans are monsters. so it all depends on the individuels opinion.

  • @Corruptedcross01 i agree with u on that-that's what i've been saying since the beggining. there are the real monsters-evil humans, and the legendary ones, based on real live models with roots in the ancient mythology...other than that, the creatures from the ethereal are not necessarily monsters, perhaps just entities we cannot understand.

  • @2010Astarte hmm.... i am going to say this, the things that humans call monsters and know as monsters do exist. there just not monsters, and they are pretty damn smart to trick humans into thinking they dont exist.

  • @Corruptedcross01 umm, u are refering to demons then? after all, they say that Satan's greatest trick was to convince us humans that he doesn't exist...if not, than i have no ideea what u could be talking about!

  • @2010Astarte lol, pm me and we can talk further about this for coming back to this video every time to reply with limited word space is quite annoying and inconvenient.

  • @Corruptedcross01 sorry...(this is rather embarrasing) but how do i do that? i currently use yahoo!messenger for chatting...and i haven't ever chatted with anyone abroad...

  • @Corruptedcross01

    You are hilarious.

  • hehe,why is it that only when the names of the "old ones" [or something like dat]become envolved that that becomes true ,when normally i'm not afraind of the dark?

  • people do not fear the dark, they fear what could be in it

    true xcept not what COULD be in it,what is in it,what u FEEL that nameless malevolant dread,that USUA:LY only comes after a horror moivi

  • its not the dark children(and we)fear,

    its whats, lurking inside it

    the horrible nightmares that crawl in the nite,8legged quot0

    fele lioek i gotta tell some1

    have u ever wondered why after watching a horror movie u feel like u cant travel to the bathroom with the lights off,why u can FEEL a PRESENCE there in the gloomy shadows on the wall,i'm gonna be da 1 to saaaaaaaaavvvvveeee aaa sooouuuuullll,couldnt rst refrnce,have u ever felt the same feeling after nothing trully frightening att all

  • happened??have u!?if u have then,its as love craft said,a NAMELESS dread,because its,u cant find any reason for it,untill the horrible dedution/truth enters your mind,it almost is sure to be truth,if its not,why is it i can sometimes SENSE the same namless malevelence that is usually only the acompanyment of watching pure horror?perhaps lovecrafts was based on fact?DERIVED?then i might,maybe uwill 2,wonder at the source of this dread,if cant simply be the horror,since it can happen independantof

  • movies,what then is this malevalent PRESENCE of fleshhless,feeding on fear,that seems to atract it,IT as in steven kings it,

    maybe

  • or r u doing the same to write this off

    more of the same...

    dull trivial meaningless existance

    u dont exist u merely 'qare'

  • Can someone name all of the Lovecraft books in one comment please?

  • @Nemesis0300 Look for the ARKHAM HOUSE imprint. They did beautiful compilations of H.P. Lovecraft's stories. They're a bit scarce, if you can find any secondhand they are worth it. Enjoy.

  • thank you my friend

  • azathoth,yog sothoth,dagon these guys looks either like fish or have tenticles ....... something is fishy ...O_o lol fishy....yah i know i make bad jokes :P

  • @Slade951 Maybe that says something about the power of fish. :)

  • @Slade951 i think yog solthoth is a bunch of glowing orbs, and that the tentictle form is just one of his avatars

  • @Slade951 don't forget Hastur, Shub-Niggurath, and Yig

  • @hiimquinn Yig is more of a reptile :\

  • @thebacanaut i know, but wouldn't it still count as tenticles?

  • @hiimquinn Well, as I know of, reptiles don't have tentacles :)

  • @thebacanaut haha, my bad

  • 0:59

    Awesome picture ov Cthulhu

  • can someone give me names of recommended books of Mr Lovecraft? and what is or who is Dagon

  • Dagon was a semittic deity that Lovecraft took and made into one of his insanely crazy amoral god-like-beings. I suggest wikipedia.

    And wikipedia for book suggestions as well.

  • @nakenmil many thanks my friend

  • @rockpop1

    I really liked The Color out of Space

    at The Mountains of Madness

  • aiy,it delved deeper into the otherness

    and wasnt as discreet as da oders

  • @rockpop1 the publisher ARKHAM HOUSE republished H.P.

    Lovecraft's stories in an elegant and affordable format. Look for their imprint, I don't know if they're still printing. The stories are way intense

  • IA IA Cthulhu ftagn!

  • I'll probably get a lot of thumbs down for this but what is that thing he/she/it looks like that octopus dude from pirates of the carribean but I think I saw a picture of this somewhere. There is something called Dagon in this isn't it? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • It's Cthulhu, the dead one who sleeps in Ry'leh.

  • It is just the other way around. The octopus dude looks like Cthulhu.

  • This is Cthulhu, a God created by H. P. Lovecraft, a horror/sci-fi writer. Dagon is also a God by the same author, but inferior to Cthulhu.

    Both are cosmic Gods, and have inhabited the Earth in ancient times.

  • Dagon is not invented by Lovecraft! He is mentioned in the bible; The story of Samson...

  • Indeed, Dagon was inspired by the Semitic God of fertility.

  • I have not studied the biblical background of Dagon, I only refer to what is written in the story of Samson. When he faces his doom, tied up between the mighty templepillars of the Dagon worshippers, he prays for God to give him back his strength, and when granted tears down the entire temple atop the "devil woshippers"...

  • Interesting... I wasn't aware of the biblical reference to Dagon. By the way, Dagon is the consort of Hydra, another mythological entity.

  • Now that is a nice couple! I get it you are quite familiar to the writing of Lovecraft...

  • Mr. Lovecraft is my favourite writer. I have read around thirty of his short stories and some poems, but it really isn't easy reading. I highly recommend the fans to search further and further, thugh.

  • My first "meeting" with Lovecraft was "the outsider". It thrilled me beyond anything I had earlier read, and is still one of my favorite shortstories.

  • I bought a collection of eleven short stories and it started with The Temple, followed by The Statement of Randolph Carter and The Silver Key. Well, I don't really think they were the best choice of tales to enter the Lovecraftian Mythos, but after some more stories I couldn't stop reading.

  • I believe I have read most of his works also. What is so great about his writing is that he managed to create this kind of "hidden" terror! I hope to get hold of the Cthulu the movie soon, and also Dagon. I really enjoyed Mouth of madness!

  • I have watched Dagon, it wasn't a bad movie. The videogame Call of Cthulhu: The Dark Corners of the Earth was also interesting, with your character trembling and getting his vision blurry whenever he felt fear. I didn't play the whole game, though. I honestly prefer reading Lovecraft, it's the best. Anyway, I first heard of Lovecraft throught Therion's song "Call of Dagon", which I still think is great, nowdays.

  • Yeah! Great song! And I agree, reading is better still!

  • he didnt make them,no moran he made dagon,he only described them,aas he quotes,these feers are older dan fless,even without form the formless primal fear,the horrors would still be

    ufeel themor should say it,when,after u watched a horror movie,u cant go down to the baathroom in the dark because u KNOIW that thyat incorporeal bodiless FEAOR,that horror is down thair,waiting,for u,plotting,to make u fear,itsfood

  • @ThunderArnt

    That, I believe was my first real Lovecraft experience. I LOVED that story, but forgot the title and didn't remember the author (I read it in Middle school). It was not until many years later that I was officially 'introduced' to Lovecraft and not until even later that I came across the 'Outsider' again (searching for the anthology I remembered it being in ) and found out that it was by my now favorite author.

  • Yes, The Outsider is great, and a perfect approach to the world of Lovecraft I think...

  • @ThunderArnt

    Agrees

  • Oddly enough, 1:07 scarred the piss out of me, even though it was arguably the least elaborate image. Maybe because it was just real enough to imagine it could be standing right in front of me, but just obscure enough so I couldn't see that it was it just a costume or a sculpture.

  • Cthulhu fhtagn! Shub-Niggurath! The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young!

  • Wrong! You just asked Cthulhu for dairy products.

    What I suspect you wanted to say was, "Ga'hr Frogroth! Meto'tt Zst'oc, gaggok VvvVis."

    You have to mind the consonants, otherwise the Deep Ones might eat you.

  • 1:50. Great detail.

  • 1:00 is the most powerful image in the group. could i find these in photobucket?

  • It sure is!

  • ananukki

  • its Annunaki, at least get the name of your creators right

  • the "great old ones" are demons glorified

  • the "great old ones" arn't demons glorified, they are imaginary creations no different than Galactus or Godzilla.

    The Lord of Nightmares from The SLayers is the creator of their universe, but its also a work of fiction, so I wouldn't call it a representation of "God" or a glorified higher demon, it is what it is.

  • its the true nature of demons,not the popular horned goat

  • @1acount I had to go find what ever you were typing too.

    Wether it be horned men or squid heads, the imagination of man is limited to the world he knows. HP Lovecraft can be said to no more get it right than Stephen King.

  • more righ..

  • it was the city on Leng in Antarctica..and they fled there only to be killed by the shoggoths

  • Which they ironically, made.  X-S

  • do someone know the names of the ancient ones?

  • Cthulhu, Nyarlathotep, Yog-Sothoth, Yig, Hastur, Shub-Niggurath, Dagon, to name a few.

  • @mikenator86 do you realy believe this crap....?

  • @avgoustos1 I am torn, because I want to tell you that it's more absurd utterly dismiss the possibility of something without having scoured the wideness of the universe than to accept the possibility, but I suspect that you won't want to understand, because like most people, you believe what you were told first with blind faith and exclusivity... It seems absurd to consider the existence of gods from fiction, but embrace 'science' because 'they' proved "this" & t"hat"

  • @mikenator86 damnit dude don't name that shit

    they'll be all over the place

  • anyone ever thought of making sure that the stars DONT align?

  • Sure. We are tiny compared to Cthulhu, because he is as big as mountains are.

  • When the stars will in right positions, the Ancient Ones will rise.

  • Life is not about "control".

  • Has anyone see the newest Cthulhu movie? I've not seen it yet so opinions would be appreciated.

  • I would like to see Kratos fight these guys. Not that I think that he would outright lose because he killed gods before and became one in fact. So I think it would be a pretty interesting match up.

  • he will be under your bed at night sunny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! atching your dreams or even try to control them......

  • What is a "Cthulhu"?

    Is there only one of them?

    Or is it several beings?

    Is it real?

    Or fictisous?

  • Originally writen about by H.P. Lovecraft, Cthulhu was described as a great priest of the old ones, a titanic being resembling a man, a squid, and a dragon all at once. He waited beneath the see, sleeping in the sunken city of R'yleh, awaiting for the starts to align when he shall rise and maddness will consume the Earth.

    There are others like Cthulhu, known as star spawn, but Cthulhu is greatest among them, a being of incomprehensible power and indecipherable motive who speaks in dreams.

  • It is ficticious and there is only one. The reason there are so many different looking ones up there is because they are all artists interperatations of the same base image.

  • Cthulhu isn't a matter being, no disease earthly or not can touch him. He's not matter, he's not energy, he exists outside of time space, he bends all reality without even thinking.

    controlling 7 elements on the periodic table is a trivial thing compared to bending reality.

  • thats cool but too bad he is fake.

    he however IS in fact a material being, he is just immortal. there is a difference

  • Doesnt the melody sound alittle similar to Sisters of Mercy's Marian?

  • Is the picture at 1:42 Cthulu or Ilisine (the Mindflayer diety from dnd)?

  • I think it's all cthulhu

  • Ya the mindflayer is based of of Cthulhu abit.... but not totaly.

  • Kraken is the definite article form of krake, a Scandinavian word designating an unhealthy animal, or something twisted. In modern German, Krake (plural and declined singular: Kraken) means octopus, but can also refer to the legendary Kraken., to cut a long story short, a kraken is a behemoth of the ocean, it is not always a squid or octupi

  • remind's me of Arcana -Chant of the Awakening!

  • idiot. a kraken is a squid.

  • haha NO! he really do looks like the Kraken and besides he has tentacles like the Kraken does

  • how old r u?

    a kraken is a giant squid. not an octopus.

    Cthulhu's head is octopus-like.

  • ahem please octopus are like squids the only difference is that an octopus is bigger and much more powerful now get it!

  • Disease35 your an idiot, Octopi are not larger than squid at all, the largest octopus is 10 or so feet long, but we have recorded evidence of squid over 100 feet long. Get your god damned facts straight. And Cthulhu is mightier than any disease, he can destroy the universe with naught but a thought.

  • Dude please just say yes because the real thing is the Walking Disease has the power to command the 7 Elements and of the 10 plagues and for the last time i'm telling you he looks like the Kraken because the Kraken is as big as the ocean so please just say yes

  • plead more,

    and then maybe, you will be granted your satisfaction ;)

    though if you guys have read H.P Lovecraft's novellas, you will see that such things as physical appearance, life and death, and the laws of nature, mean little to the Old Ones.

    Cthulhu's awakening inflicted maddening nightmares on everyone on the planet, and all attempts to destroy it throughout history have failed. So the Eldar Things devised a mystical sign to keep it unconscious.

  • Go read "Call of Cthulu". It should clear things up for you and introduce you to a great body of literature as well^_^

  • Well it just sounded like you were kind of confused. I didn't mean anything by it^_^

    On an unrelated note: In the Tolkien/Lovecraft battle, I want to point out that Lovecraft had help on his pantheon. Not to diminish Lovecraft's brilliance of course. I'm a big fan of his.

    Herbert West-Reanimator and Cool Air being two of my personal Favorites^_^

  • Okay. One name: Azathoth. He created the universe in a mindless thought, and he shall destroy it same. He is beyond the need for mind or substance. The second his half-brother Nyarlathotep takes away the flute which keeps the Nuclear Chaos subdued in slumber, the entire universe as we know it and don't know it will be gone in an instant of hellish insanity, destruction and ultimate chaos.
