Crypt of Cthulhu Online!

UPDATE 01/21/2008: The Crypt of Cthulhu Archive is now here!

I just had to pass on this excellent archive of transcribed content from many issues of “Crypt of Cthulhu”. For those not in the know, “Crypt of Cthulhu” was one of the pre-eminent Lovecraftian small press publications that dominated the 1980s. It featured many articles from chief Lovecraft scholars Robert M. Price and S.T. Joshi, in addition to fiction from notables like Ramsey Campbell, Thomas Ligotti, and Lin Carter. Today, many of the back issues are quite sought after by cultish collectors. The online archive appears to be growing and already contains full issues from the magazine’s early days. However, the compilers are respectful of copyrights, so you won’t find a great deal of fiction there. Still, the site has already provided me with many hours of reading. Peruse at your leisure or use as a reference for the finer nuances of Lovecraftian literary studies.
