🎼Hush now, hide, all you little ones Rush now, into the middle of nowhere Singing and laughter will die
Dreamless sleep, follows the Nowhere King When his kingdom comes, darkness is nigh
Quiet, crawl to the in-between Silent, secretive feeling Of fearsome hatred that reaches the skies
You will bring joy to the Nowhere King When he sees the light leaving your eyes
A community to discuss Cosmic Horror in it’s many forms; books, films, comics, art, TV, music, RPGs, video games etc.
“cosmic horror… is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible more than gore or other elements of shock… themes of cosmic dread, forbidden and dangerous knowledge, madness, non-human influences on humanity, religion and superstition, fate and inevitability, and the risks associated with scientific discoveries… the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person, insignificance and powerlessness at the cosmic scale…”
