My short story, The Eisenach Horror, will be published in Who Knocks Magazine Issue #3.

I can’t exactly recall the genesis of the story. I wrote the first draft quite a while ago now and recently polished it up for submission. The nutshell description is Martin Luther vs. Cthulhu Cult.

I find H.P. Lovecraft an interesting character, and I find his stories interesting, as well, probably more so the ideas of them than the actual writing. Lovecraft horror is generally considered atheistic horror. He specialized in an indifferent cosmos where “gods” are alien beings beyond our understanding, rather than a religious cosmos that offers at least the hope of salvation.

With The Eisenach Horror I thought it would be fun to see how a real-life religious icon would react when confronted by the Lovecraftian universe.
