About:

From the people who brought you Doctor Celestine's Carnival of Souls, a new epic (fancy word for long-winded and often confusing) tale of horror and suspense!

Our story is set in the (probably) fictional city of Arkham, Massachusetts, home of the (probably) fictional Miskatonic University, a setting created by H.P. Lovecraft in the 1920's. Miskatonic University was founded in 1690, and boasts over three hundred years of subdued and blatant insanity. Miskatonic University has a website for anyone curious about the school or its students. The school motto, A Small Sacrifice for Knowledge, says it all, we feel. Located only a short drive from Boston, Salem, Danvers, and Innsmouth, Miskatonic U. has more to offer than one might at first expect.

More info on the principal characters will follow, as soon as we figure out who they are, exactly.

Fans of collaborative fiction, a science pioneered by H.P. Lovecraft, and continued in the Thieves' World series of books by almost everyone and the Wild Card novels edited by George R.R. Martin, are encouraged to read and comment. Maybe even join in.

If you're just interested in Lovecraftian Mythos, not particularly interested in our storytelling talents or lack thereof, check out the Necronomiphiles Livejournal Community! Ia! Ia!

Oh, one more thing. The Miskatonic University logo used above was er...borrowed...from the website of that august and esteemed university. See? We hope they don't mind...but if they do, we'll give it back.
