Can Such Things Still Be?Complete Literary Guide to the King in Yellow This book contains the source works that began with Ambrose Bierce's creation of Hastur and Carcosa, were turned into works of madness-inducing terror by Robert W. Chambers which also introduced the King in Yellow and the Yellow Sign, then all those elements were incorporated into the Cthulhu Mythos by H. P. Lovecraft. It also includes the work from another author that Chamber's monstrous royal derived his darker deviation from that of Bierce's more humble beginnings - who could it be? It does NOT include: **any of the Derleth disasters **modern works slipped in to try and trick you into reading new Cthulhu Mythos authors **Call of Cthulhu roleplaying additions **altered mythologies from the True Detectives show Presented by the First United Church of Cthulhu, the only real and legally recognized religion based on the works of our Mad Prophet H.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft (Providence, 20 de agosto de 1890-Providence, 15 de marzo de 1937) más conocido como H. P. Lovecraft, fue un escritor estadounidense, autor de relatos y novelas de terror y ciencia ficción.

Se le considera un gran innovador del cuento de terror, al que aportó una mitología propia —los Mitos de Cthulhu—, desarrollada en colaboración con otros autores, actualmente en vigencia.

Su obra constituye un clásico del horror cósmico, una línea narrativa que se aparta de las tradicionales historias de terror sobrenatural —satanismo, fantasmas—, incluyendo elementos de ciencia ficción como, por ejemplo, razas alienígenas, viajes en el tiempo o existencia de otras dimensiones.
