This is two ideas that belong together: grassroots fund-raising and horror. If you’re not checking out Propnomicon sometimes, then you should. For instance, they have information and downloads on how to make your photos look antique, how to build tentacles (for those of you who can’t grow them yourselves), and also a ton of Cthulhu statuary to use as inspiration. Propnomicon is a website dedicated to making and showing Lovecraft-inspired props. And they make cool stuff, like the awesome Miskatonic University t-shirts on Zazzle. I got the distressed Antarctic Expedition shirt (pictured below being modeled by my pal Ebenezer Lectric the Cat). Anyhow, they’ve created a Kickstarter project, and they still need backers! Here are the details. Go support the great cause, now! Now!
