I do love how many of these are like "it's an incomprehensibly powerful being. It is so much greater than you that you cannot even perceive it without going mad. It's an otherworldly extradimensional god capable of squashing you like a bug without even noticing. It's hanging out in some cave in Texas."
It’s one of my favorite aspects of cosmic horror. It wouldn’t be scary if there wasn’t a proximity between them and the human race. My favorite flavor of that proximity is that some creatures are not only physical beings, but they exist fully within the world of dreams.

8 and a half hours, huh? Well lets go😅😎 Thank you for making this epic Video series😄 Hope you and everyone else reading this will have a fantastic day and not run into any eldrich abominations💜💜💜
Most of lovecraftian mythos really be like "Gostumphă, swallower of souls and taker of hope. No one can truly escape the clutches of him from beyond him realm..." then you get some that are like. "Albino Penguin.... kinda just made by some funny guys"
Because all the silly stuff you see in this is made by modern man. It high-key sucks, but at least people are having fun and still talking about the series.
Everything apparently is incomprehensible and will destroy your very mind just by looking at it. 😂 so if I see something then I guess I’ll lose my mind 100,000 times over
So far, I've fell asleep listening to horror and dreamed about: A blind tech-witch who scanned me with a laser A hotel ran by Jim Jones that corrals unsuspecting guests over a waterfall An evil Trinity who keeps you plugged in and doped up
I have just finished your video and I would like to congratulate and applaud you. I have yet to find anyone else who has put together such a combined edition of the entities. And being able to hear the incomprehensible sounds of their names is a great benefit to me. THANK YOU. The dedication you have to the C.M. is incredible to read, research and provide a synopsis with visuals of these creatures is wonderful.
Yay! Now I have something new to watch while i recover from surgery!! I've already watched the "Ultimate Iceberg of the Unexplained, Bizzare, and Unsolved" and "The Backroom Entities Iceberg" multiple times. Thank you Maker for making recovery more bearable!
Finally. An indepth bestiary of all the creatures I've come to adore with the feverish devotion of a mad man from yogsothothry. There are several creatures including yogsothoth, azathoth, the dunwich horror, cthulhu, dagon, the deep ones and the elder things to name a few.
@0-m-1-n-0-u-5 of course! How could I forget them?! This list has so many amazing intries I've never heard of in yogsothothry. Of course, I've heard of the yithians beforehand, though.

I have bipolar disorder. I have delusions and some mild paranoia. I once had a psychotic episode induced by a combination of medication and psychedelic drugs. I spent 10 hours having seizures, kicking, and screaming in the most horrific pain imaginable. I fought death for hours, saw faces. Drooled over. Kicked walls. Ran out of my house and screamed at people cause I was sure I did not exist anymore. I accepted death. I saw the abyss and I was swallowed. I waited for the end to come. And the hours kept passing. The real fear striked when, after what felt like hours of screaming and crying. I saw in a glimpse of lucidity that only 15minutes had passed. These creatures, the entire bestiary, seem to really come close to describing what completely losing your sanity feels like. The faces, the laughs, the beings whose intentions or origins are incomprehensible, the time stretching and becoming infinite inside of your eyes. The permanent feeling that you saw the truth. That one day we will all fall into that abyss. That you just saw reality for a day. Then I read Lovecraft's father died on a mental asylum. And everything made more sense. I have experienced total insanity for what felt like years. I recovered completely in 2 days. The emotional trauma follows me to this day. I cannot even begin to explain what I experienced. Full blown psychosis for 10 hours while on LSD and having seizures induced by heavy psychiatric medication is the closest to a real cthulu creature experience.
If this doesn't deter people from hardcore drugs, I don't know what will. That being said, I heard LSD *in small doses* can actually make Depression completely vanish for at least a few weeks.
A basic writing rule says "show, don't tell". Well Lovecraft tells, but he tells really well he broke the rule. The way he uses exaggerated proses somehow just taps into the human imagination. It fits the nature of modern dread so well.
Oh wow, what a blast from the past. I once went on an old website a good decade ago and printed out a good 100 pages of every known entity in the Cthulhu Mythos. Guess I don't have to read those papers anymore! Great work!
Hot take; the whole "its so horrifying your mind cant even comprehend it, which is why they appear as a mass of flesh, tentacles, eyes and maws" thing feels like a cop out when like half of all the monsters are like that. Things like yithians or elder things or even cthulhu himself are so much more interesting because they actually have a descriptive form that are actually scary, instead of just being told that you have to be scared of them by definition.
Thank YOU. Research, collating and finding these drawings/sketches of these beings was probably extremely time consuming! I've been doing it for years and can still say I'm not nearly done. Always new authors adding to the cannon. Of course there is ONLY one HPL.
The thing I always clung to was that the enigmatic elder beings are simply too much for our feable minds to comprehend and just leave us in "Madness" just because we can't grasp them.
I didn't notice the length when I clicked on it last night, dozed off within minutes, woke to my work alarm about 7 hours later, and it was still playing lol. I'm going to rewatch a bit every night, until I have seen them all lol I hear Bloodborn's "Hail The Nightmare". VERY fitting!
"Its arrival is often heralded by strange occurrences, such as unexplained disappearances, haunting whispers, or a palpable sense of impending doom." Huh, today I learned moon lord isn't actually Cthulhu, he's an invisibly octopoid!
I listened to this while going to sleep, while sleeping, the times I woke up that night and egen I woke up. Really gave me am odd outlook for the next day.
I love how some of the alien species are written. "This giant slug monster with a face made of a cluster of tentacles has lived for eons. They are really good surgeons and like reading :)" The tonal whiplash is amazing.
Thats nothing yet. I cracked in half when I found this AI generated THE SAME PAGE OF SCRIPT TWICE and the guy read it all the same. Like even he did not pay any attention, nor proof read this shit. Talk about "mindless entertainment" when even the maker does not give half a shit of what he is doing. Pretty fucking disrespectful to the lore and community as a whole. Eight hours of material under a slight lense of scrutiny (i watched less than 20 minutes and it happened multiple times) gives less of a "dedication" vibe and more of a "Does not matter what I will do, noone will pay enough attention for 8 hours to observe how massively I dont really give a shit".
You've completely infected my RUclips homepage with 3+ hour videos... I almost never click videos longer than an hour, and only opened this because it seemed an interesting thing to fall asleep to.
For how popular the lovecraft mythos is and how often i hear it talked about or watch videos about it ive literally never heard someone refer to an actual book of his like ive never heard any of the titles for any of his books or ever heard someone even talk about reading or having read them
Also interesting how….little there is? Like every single one of these entities is just “how they kill you” then 10 pages of “they are unfathomable you cannot know what they are who they are what they look like or what they do” and thats it none of these really have any depth or uniqueness some weird snake guy has the same amount of lore and same explanation as cthulhu himself or the mf whos dream we live inside of
I’ve read the color of outer space, it’s a good read but kinda hard to follow at times, but you are right very rarely does anyone actually reference the books and poems the beings are from
Lovecraft's work consists mostly of "cosmic horror stories". Lovecraft's cosmic horror often focuses on illustrating how helpless humanity is against any of the extra-dimensional beings out there, how easy it'd be for any of them to wipe us all out.

I feel like one word was used so frequently, that a thesaurus would've went a long way. "enigmatic" was used like 5 times PER ENTRY. It became like a drinking game half way through.

You've done it. You've solved the elder beings.
So 90% of these things can be summed up as:
"It's super mysterious and it likes to eat people"
And include the phrase "beyond human comprehension"
And a formidable adversary
“Can warp space and time to its will”
This is what tends to happen when you let AI do all the work. Lacks imagination and colour.
