Ligottian Diversions

The excellent forums at Thomas Ligotti Online continue to provide tools for serious research on Thomas Ligotti and interesting diversions based on his work. TLO's "Town Manager" (Admin) Dr. Bantham recently posted a submissions call for Ligottian crossword puzzles. A couple have already been produced in Flash format, one being an older Beta, and another one actually culled from a submission entry. Lovers of crosswords and Ligotti's highbrow horror will meet a formidable challenge on the online battlefield worthy of their skills. With tasteful illustrations in the background, these puzzles incorporate the best in characters, themes, and philosophical ideas from the intensely hypnotic words of Thomas Ligotti.

Now, if only someone would do the same for the famous mix of antiquarian, flamboyant, and cosmic terms used by H.P. Lovecraft! Which would be rather ironic, since Lovecraft was said to have scoffed at crosswords as a waste of time...
