The Carol of the Old Ones

For best results - Watch in High Quality!

A Stikfas Toymation of "The Carol of the Old Ones" as performed by the Arkham Carolers.
Don't miss the extra at the end of the film. There, you've been clued.

My son and I first heard "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Fishmen" right here on YouTube. We were so impressed that we rushed right over to the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society web site and bought both "A Very Scary Solstice" and "An Even Scarier Solstice" with their songbooks.

They were both excellently crafted albums full of beautifully performed and recorded eldritch holiday entertainment. We both highly recommend them. You can buy them here: http://www.cthulhulives.org/store.
They are a must for Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft fans.

But it didn't stop there. We were so inspired by "The carol of the Old Ones" that we just HAD to make an animation. So we crafted our own Cthulhu, picked out a choir and started filming.

We did so in high hopes of getting the blessing of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society, who own the copyright to the song. So please support them by buying one or both of the albums. You'll listen to nothing else all through the next holiday season, and if you retain your sanity, perhaps the whole year 'round.

Thanks for watching!

Ok, I have to know, what is that angel looking white figure on the right side? That thing looks awesome and I seriously want one.

@LilDruid

It's one of the standard Stikfas sets (Stikfas Alpha Action Figure Angel).

I recommend buying it from Animate Clay if you can

I would tell you... But I fear you might go insane.

Probably one of the best stop-motion videos I've seen on Youtube. Wish more could be of this quality.
