RIP to the classic Wendigoon whiteboard

[Ganymedia]

In defense of Cthulhu and the boat, wouldn't you be off your game if you were asleep for a thousand years, woke up, and then got smacked in the face?

[brutalchaos]

The audible version of Shadow out of time is amazing. At the climax of the story the narrator starts to read like he's losing grasp on reality and was one of my top 5 narrations on the platform

[zaqzilla]

On the upside Lovecraft was convinced to let go of his racism by his friends and actually felt bad about it later in life.

The best description of cosmic horror is the idea of an ant seeing a circuit board not knowing the complexity of the thing it is observing.

Lovercraft, the slightly more romantic brother of Lovecraft.

There's a charm in your old setup in your room with only a whiteboard and mic, and I appreciate keeping the green screen exclusively for book reviews.

[FergusonFiller]

please do more cthulhu mythos videos. i browse on youtube to find lore on the great old ones but there’s really not anything that i’m looking for. and hearing the events of this story being retold rather than actually reading or listening to the book paints a clearer picture in my brain. please continue to do more of these with other lovecraft stories

there aren't a *ton* of channels where a 55 min video is "kind of a shorter video", but Wendigoon sure is one of them

[Fritz-copb]

My favourite Lovecraft story is mountains of madness because of the line "These things might not have been human but they were men"

[RenegadeAid]

18:25 That’s Vietnamese and it translates to "In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming"

Edit: 18:55 Nevermind

[kiracarver]

You should absolutely cover more Lovecraft, your channel is a perfect place for it.

[smoothiedeluxe]

In a video about Lovecraft Wendigoon accepts 'the french language scares me' is such a Lovecraft thing to say on such a deep meta level I love it.

[ChaseFausett]

Somewhere in South Carolina a man is boiling with rage that you made another successful video

[swordmonkey]

The concept of the Cthulhu Cycle is one of the most important ideas of modern horror.

"The Thing" at least pays sideways homages to At The Mountains of Madness. The monster is very Lovecraftian in concept and the idea of aliens being found in the ice of Antarctica is there.

[renegade]

I am 100% down for watching you dive into more Lovecraft stuff. "Rats In the Walls" and "Pickman's Model" have alway had a special place in my heart.

[snipersougo]

The way i interpreted the boat being able to "stop" cthulhu, is that this whole story is the great old one equivalent of standing up in the night still half asleep to pee and hitting ur little toe against something.

[goleogthais]

Who would win:
A formless incomprehensible eldritch god
OR
one small boat

[grimm]

I really appreciate you as a creator. You hit every interesting topic I can think of, plus some. I’ve been watching you for some time and I’m proud to see you gain as much praise and love as you deserve.

Thank you so very much for the great entertainment.

Man, this video was so insanely good i hope wendigoon covers more H.P.L. stories, otherwise I'm gonna have to go on a deepdive for more vids like this somewhere else lol
