Was HP Lovecraft that good? I saw a video essay about him and it didn’t make him come across the best but idk if that was an accurate representation

Azarkus t1_j6ngx7s wrote

He created a genre of horror (i think its cosmic horror) Basically monsters who are beyond the human mind, and there is no way to beat them. If you like the SCP monsters, or you liked some movies like bird box, and most of stephen king novels/films, then you will probably love HP lovecraft

Cosmic/lovecraftian horror. They basically just named the genre after him lol

He was the direct inspiration for Steven King and other authors. (And Bloodborne I guess)

Haven’t read any of his books but they sound really interesting and it seems like he was one of the most influential horror writers ever. The only bad thing I’ve heard about him is how racist he was, though that’s not surprising considering when he lived.

Samakira t1_j6pe4cz wrote

he was so racist, racists called him racist.

he was also quite anti-Semitic, but when he married a Jewish woman, he changed his view on that particular area.

how racist?

an old guy died because he saw people of colour in one of the books.

He married a Jew and believed she was the only good Jew in the world simply because he knew her. I'm sure he could overcome those pre-concepts if he got to know more POC and of different religions. The stories about him sounds like the kind of guy who would benefit from therapy nowadays.

Please don't Judge cool air by a video made by overly sarcastic production. The horror Is not the air conditioning, but the undead kept himself alice for all these years

Well at least you judged It after reading It. I personally don't find It particularly bad, especially if compared to seme less interesting stories like the shunned house

Can sugest me something good?

Lord_Mikal t1_j6pehwm wrote

  1. Call of Cthulhu
  2. At the Mountains of Madness
  3. The Shadow Over Innsmouth

These are generally considered his best works.

He was extremely influential and personally i enjoyed his stories, its possible however that with how big Cosmic Horror has become, his stories began to suffer the "Seinfeld is Unfunny" curse
