He occupies a prominent niche in pop culture, so people talk about him a lot. One aspect of his work that stands out is its connection to 1920s race science. So when people talk about him, that's a natural aspect to mention, alongside other things like cosmic horror and the weird-tale form. What does seethe mean exactly.

this is the response every sensible person should have about Lovecraft in the modern day, keep the good ass stories and writing, ditch the racism. not really that hard.

also, kino tier video and channel by this dude, has an obvious passion for the world's Lovecraft has created.

<PART ONE - PHONECALLS>

HORSE:
And who do we have here?
Oh, you don't know who you are..?
Maybe we should leave it that way?
ROOSTER:
But I know you.
Look at my face. We've met before...
Haven't we?
OWL:
I don't know you!
Why are you here?
You're no guest of mine!
HORSE:
Do you really want me to reveal who you are?
Knowing oneself means acknowledging ones actions.
As of lately you've done some terrible things...
ROOSTER:
You don't remember me? I'll give you a clue...
Does April the 3rd mean anything to you?
I believe that was the day of our first encounter.
You look like you might be remembering something...

He's only explicitly in The Rats in the Wall, though it's fair to say all other cats in his works are inspired by the og.
