I adore this wonderful crocheted Cthulhu from The Yarning Portal. What makes it particularly notable is that H.P. Lovecraft himself was an avid knitter. In "A Means to Freedom: The Letters of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard" there's a long series of letters describing their mutual love of yarn creations. Sadly, the crocheted versions of Conan and Cthulhu they mention have never been found.

Curse of Strahd Props
Wolfspirit4W brings us this collection of physical props and ephemera for their run of the "Curse of Strahd" campaign for Dungeons and Dragons. There are few things more effective than running a high-touch version of an already epic adventure series. If you're planning something similar, the one suggestion I would make is producing enough copies of every paper prop that each player can have their own. That allows them to do a running journal of the adventure with tons of inserts, akin to the grail diary from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. That would be an amazing keepsake.

Nyarlathotep
This fantastic digital sculpt of Nyarlathotep comes to us from artist Alex Carratala. Click through for a full gallery and 360 degree view. It was directly inspired by Nyarlathotep's sonnet in Lovecraft's "The Fungi from Yuggoth".

Infected Fae
This delightfully icky fungally infected fairy specimen comes to us from the talented Umbrateca. The powdery, threadlike hyphae are a fantastic detail.

Polynesian Cthulhu Idol
The Monkey Rodeo returns to our pages after a long absence with this Polynesian-themed Cthulhu idol. I love the sculpt, but it really needs a wash to bring out the details like the inscription along the base.
