Behold the unspeakable horror of


Shub-NiggurathThe Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young, one of the Outer Gods of H.P. Lovecraft’s Pantheon…

I’m not 100% content with the “b/u” inversion… This part will need some further optimization.

Here’s one more lovecraftian deity for the weekend. This time it’s Azathoth , The Blind Idiot God, Him in the Gulf, Seething Nuclear Chaos, The Daemon Sultan, ruler of the Outer Gods.

Still continuing my set of Lovecraft-related ambigrams. This time I present you Nyarlathotepthe messenger of the Great Old Ones, the crawling chaos.

Considered an Outer God, he often appears in human shape, acting as a stage artist, presenting strange scientific artifacts, which is why I wanted this ambigram to look like a 1920’s poster headline.

I’m really enjoying creating these Mythos-related ambigrams, so look out: There’s more to come… 😉

And here’s another lovecraftian ambigram:

Yog-Sothoth – The Lurker at the Threshold, The Key and the Gate, The Beyond One, Opener of the Way, The All-in-One and the One-in-All

Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagnIn his house at R’lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming.

Recently I became addicted to the “Propnomicon” blog, a weblog that “focuses on horror and fantasy props of interest to fans of H. P. Lovecraft and players of the “Call of Cthulhu” role playing game.”(quote)

“Chtulhu Fhtagn”, wich means “Cthulhu waits”, “Cthulhu dreams”, or “Cthulhu waits dreaming.”

FYI: Here is an ambigram I created sometime ago (mirror-ambigram), dealing with the unspeakable horror from the deep, too:
