Dive into the stories of horror savant H.P. Lovecraft, whose fantastical tales, such as The Call of Cthulhu, created a new era of Gothic horror.--Arcane books of forbidden lore, disturbing secrets in the family bloodline, and terrors so unspeakable the very thought of them might drive you mad. These have become standard elements in modern horror stories. But they were largely popularized by a single author: H.P. Lovecraft, whose name has become synonymous with the terror he inspired. Silvia Moreno-Garca dissects the Lovecraftian legacy.Lesson by Silvia Moreno-Garca, directed by Globizco Studios.Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterSupport us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagramView full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/titan-of-terror-the-dark-imagination-of-h-p-lovecraft-silvia-moreno-garciaThank you so much to our patrons for your support!
