This book I'm reading just referred to "H.R. Lovecraft."

Which made me think: in the world of horrible artist hybrid monster mashups, I must admit that a combination of HP Lovecraft and HR Giger would be pretty damn terrifying.

Hehehe... and all I could think of was an HR Puffenstuf and HP Lovecraft mash-up. :-)

Same here.

Probably more disturbing actually. (Giger's already indebted to Lovecraft: his famous book of paintings that included the one that inspired "Alien" is titled "Necronomicon", IIRC)

Oh good. Nice to know I'm not the only who is completely around the bend. ;-)

Same here.

Who knew that the Magic Flute was actually one of Azathoth's blind pipers?

Yeah, the Lovecraft-Giger connection is why I'm guessing it was so easy for this writer to come up with the wrong initials.

I saw something involving HR Puffenstuf when I was three, and swore I would have nothing to do with it. I have kept that vow.

Gah. Me too. I was picturing some kind of tentacled stuffed animal thingy. And definitely NOT anything along the lines of Witchypoo, but HRP Himself.
