There’s something about making Cthulhu adorable that makes me feel tingly all over. I think it’s probably just a coping mechanism. I read “Call of Cthulhu” when I was too young for such things and it scared me. A lot. So now I make him super cute, because it isn’t as bad if fat little heart-eyed monsters hide under the bed.
Cthulhu joins Harry Potter and Sherlock as literary references on the blanket. There are a few more books to cover this year, and let me tell you, it was SUPER HARD to decide which ones to include. There’s just so much there. Robert Jordan’s books deeply influenced our high school years, but they aren’t on the blanket. Similarly, I wait for each new Dresden Files book like a starving animal eyeing its next meal, but Harry isn’t on the blanket either. Cthulhu made the cut because he’s so iconic. I wonder if H.P. Lovecraft knew that what he was creating would become so well-known. There are table top games, video games, card games, and even a robust selection of fanfic available. The list goes on, really.
I’m thrilled with how he turned out, and I hope you guys love him too!
