Hello and welcome back to the Most Amazing
Channel on the internet . I am your host Rebecca
Felgate and today we are talking the Top 10
Scariest Lovecraftian Monsters…and boy are
you in for what I would probably describe
as a tentacley treat!
For those of you who don’t know who HP Lovecraft
is, he was an author who wrote some pretty
terrifying cosmic horror fiction.
Good old HP was obviously deeply inspired
by deep sea creatures, which are basically
one of my biggest fears so this list should
be fun!
Before we get into it though, I wan to ask
you to describe the scariest monster you can
think of and give it a name…for me it would
be like a giant Blob Fish but with tropophobia
style holey eyes and a foul stench of rotten
meat… it would appear in bodies of water
you were swimming in and drag you to the murky
depths…
I would call it EL BLOBLIO THE DOOM BRINGER.
Good.
Let me know yours in the comments section
down below!
Also please do like, share, comment…insta..
Also please do stick around to the end of
the video as I will be reading out some replies
to comments from a previous video.
Let’s start with a loathsome creature you
have probably heard of at number 10
Cthulhu
Cthulhu probably deserves to be at number
one, but that wouldn’t be too surprising
so he can head up this list of terrors.
Cthulhu is a highly worshipped Great Old One,
an Elder Thing, a creature without gender
and so vast it takes up swathes of the ocean
– indeed Cthulhu is supposed to be hibernating
under water somewhere in the South Pacific.
Cthulhu is the first up in our looking at
it will send you mad genre… of which Lovecraft
seemed to be a huge fan.
Puney human minds can barely comprehend the
Cthulhu … but if they could they would see
part dragon, part octopus, part squid… wings
and a tentacly mouth described as a mass of
feelers… he is scaly and rubbery, yet he
has claws . He can control minds and he wants
to destroy the human race.
Nice one Cthulhu.
9 – Nyarlathotep (NYAR LATH O TEP)
HP Lovecraft described the God monster Nyarlathotep
in a letter to a friend saying that the idea
for the creature had come from a horrible
recurring nightmare that he has since he was
ten.
He described the creature as horrible beyond
anything you can imagine, but wonderful too.
Nyarlathotep is crawling chaos who presents
as an Egyptian pharaoh with a smooth, featureless
face able to gain an army of faithful followers.
To meet Nyalathotep is to be drawn into his
thrawl and forget the world around you.
He will manipulate you for his gain and enjoys
sending people mad.
There is no fighting him, he has superhuman
strength.
8 - The Dunwich Horror
I do not like the sound of this beasty!
So the Dunwich Horror started life as a half
human called Wilbur Whateley – spawned from
a human woman and the Outer God Yog Sothoth
… how that works…well..
I’ll leave it to your imagination.
He was kept a secret by his mother and was
loved on really by his brother, who later
died by turning into a liquid pool…because
of course.
Anyway the horror is usually invisible to
the human eye, but when he shows himself,
of course he sends people mad.
He is tentacly, like many a Lovecraftian monster
and is of gargantuan proportions.
He has red eyes and many teeth and can eat
a handful of cattle or humans whole in one
go.
7 - The Mi Go
If there is a prize for grossest Lovecraftian
Monsters then the MiGo may well be in the
running.
These are human size funguses that look like
giant shimp.
Shrimy fungs.
Just gonna let that one sink in.
Oh, they are also kind of waspy… they have
wings which allow them to fly at great speeds.
They are an alien species but some have inhabited
planet earth and they really cant stand humans.
Despite feeling a bloodlust towards earths
inhabitants, they kind of want to study them,
so often they will seek out humans, gouge
out their brains and send them back to their
home planet for testing.
THANKS evil fungus shrimp wasps… thanks
a bunch.
O
6 - Old One Eye
His name is my favourite I have to say….hellooo
Old One Eye!
Although to be totally fair I would not be
saying hello if I saw him ever… he is terrifying
and we cant be friends.
I would run in the opposite direction, not
that that would do me any good.
Old One Eye indeed has a solitary eye because
his other was burned out with a close range
shot from a plasma pistol…of course.
The pistol also dispensed with around 50 percent
of his face, too…which is …terrifying.
Old one eye is kind of like a giant 6 limbed
crab with scythe bone blades.
His skin is red, his is prone to unstoppable
bloody rampages, annnnnd he can regenerate
if harmed.
Didn’t help him grow back his eye though,
did it!
5 - The Night Gaunts
Have a looksie here at this beastie!
We have talked about cosmic monsters of epic
proportions that can send people mad by even
trying to understand their forms… and that
is scary… but so is a horned winged creatures
with oily bodies, paws with claws and barbed
tails.
The Night Gaunts are much more comprehendible
than some of the gods, but they are scary
none the less.
They are described as being nightmarish creatures
that can interact with humans through their
dreams.
They are black with rubbery, slick skin, they
have no face... just flesh.
They never speak or life or smile – they
are blank.
All they do are clutch and fly and tickle.
Tickle.
Seriously.
Please get away from me.
4- Yog-Sothoth
Riiiight so Yog-Sothoth is a massive collection
of glowing orbs with spooky tendrils at best
description, but totally indescribable at
worst.
Yog-Sothoth is a child of the Nameless mists
and defies visualization … trying to comprehend
it can send humans mad….again, a common
theme amongst Lovecraftian monsters.
The Yoog-Sothoth is all seeing and omnipresent
but lives outside of our universe whilst being
able to control beings within it.
It can appear on earth as avatars, though,
including as the Eater of Souls.
Despite being mind bendingly monumental and
with the power to destroy your mind and soul,
there is actually a lot to be learned from
the Yog-Sothoth if it is treated with respect.
3 - Spider of Leng
Shout out to my fellow arachnophobics!
Aint nobody got time for these giant purple
spiders….
Aaaand giant purple spiders is basically the
beast description!
These fearsome beasts range from the size
of a small horse, but can reach proportions
bigger than the largest of elephants.
Eight eyes, eight legs, the ability to climb
pretty much anything, the Spiders of Leng
have an extremely venomous bite.
They aren’t above eating one another at
all, so wouldn’t think twice about gobbling
you up.
They wont go out looking for you, but if you
stumble across their lair these HUGE arachnids
will kill you and eat you.
For those with a cosmic fear of the unknown,
scared of black holes, the abyss or dying
simply because the though of nothingness is
too mind bending, this one is for you… we
have The Blackness from the Stars at number
2!
This is an existential heart attack of a monster…
the Blackness from the stars is seemingly
formed from all of the darkness in the cosmos.
It is the blackness surrounding all creation,
it is sentient darkness.
Ever feel like the shadows are watching you?
Ever feel like nights sky is awake?
A scary thought, right?
An intelligent nothingness.
The blackness understands everyone and everything
but chooses not to communicate.
When it does speak, though, it speaks in a
language unknown to anyone but the blackness
itself.
What!
1 - The Dweller in the Gulf
The Dweller in the Gulf as a GIANT, like….SUPER
GIANT tortoise with disconcertingly wet white
and gold milky skin.
It walks in a dozen stumpy legs with super
suckers that allow it to scale sheer surfaces.
It has two tails, which are all the better
for whipping you with.
Want to know the creepiest thing about this
monster?
Urm….Well, it doesn’t have eyes, but it
does like to gouge out the eyes of its prey
with a pair of long snouts.
Wait, what?!
It gouges out your eyes with twin noses…
that is rank.
After eating the eyes of the innocent, it
turns them into blind servants.
The servants, who also cant see, spend their
lives stroking statues of the dweller until
he appears to them.
SO CREEPY.
No worries though; the Dweller in the Gulf
lives below the surface of Mars.
Maybe NASA wants to rethink their 2020 mission
after all.
SO guys that was the Top 10 Scariest Lovecraftian
Monsters!
Which do you think was the scariest?
Let me know!
Also don’t forget to describe your monsterous
worst fear to me and give it a name… will
it be scarier than EL BLOBLIO THE DOOM BRINGER…
like… probably.

Actually there were stuff that I haven't heard,
they were interesting.
As my own memory goes, I got the bellyfrog
story a few times as a kid.?
Giga Byte Wild shared a scary local legend
from where they are from… they wrote….
In my area we got a local urban legend of
the pale girl, one with discolored skin & a
raggedly worn down set of clothes.
She stands in the forested land during the
winter staring yet saying nothing.
Following those that are either lost or venturing
through.
She even stands on the thinnest of branches
looking down, but the branches never sway
down.
There are children who make drawings about
a girl standing high up in a tree asking them
to follow her to play, which reminds me of
times I have had some what of a similar experience
as a child.
Being told that I should never reply back,
nor should I ever invite her to come in to
the house.
For she may enter & stand at the end of people's
beds as they sleep, causing people to have
nightmares of freezing to death as they are
lost in the white outs of the winter weather.?
THAT IS SCARY!
But tell me, where are you from?!
