The zeppelin thunderously boomin'

Plumes of flame started bloomin'

The copilot heard

Their superior's words

"Y'know, to err is just human"

About the Creator

MA Snell

I'm your typical Portlander in a lot of ways. Queer, cheerfully nihilistic, trying to make a quiet name for myself in a big small town. My writing tends to be creepy and—let's hope—compelling. Beware; and welcome.

What is Lovecraft Horror?
Lovecraft horror was first brought to life by H.P. Lovecraft, an iconic horror writer that was responsible for giving the world a new vision of horror. Lovecraft horror is mostly seen as cosmic horror, or the fear of the unknown. This kind of horror focuses on mankind going insane upon witnessing the most messed up horror imaginable, either consisting of monsters or other worlds that the human race does not belong.
