There aren't a lot of women in "The Rats in the Walls." But that doesn't mean the few who are mentioned are boring! In reviewing "Lockbox" (2015) by E. Catherine Tobler, we see a fresh take on often-overlooked Lovecraftian women.

Ever wondered what that cursed relic could really do for you? Whether that haunted painting really could kill? These are questions Rebecca Stone Gordon loves to explore, and we are blessed to have this biological anthropologist and horror scholar join us for Writing the Occult: Relics.

been getting really into HP Lovecraft recently, it's great. I started with Call of Cthulhu and Shadow Over Innsmouth. Now I'm on The Whisperer in the Darkness (IIRC that's the title??)
I bought a huge anthology for $1 off Kobo, also got The Necrominon
if anyone could point me to some really good stories of his pls lmk!! I'm mostly interested in the Cthulhu Mythos. Also I've got no clue about any authors after HPL's death, and which works are worth reading.
