Lovecraftian Thing A Day No.39: Fear the Future!



Today's item is a set of H.P. Lovecraft tarot cards, produced by Mythos Books and published in 2002. Apparently these are a bit of a rarity. These are one of five sets of Lovecraft-themed tarot cards I own, along with two Lovecraftian ouija boards - all of which, no doubt, will make an appearance here at a later date. I have to say, though, that there is something a little curious about basing an oracular system upon Lovecraft's cosmic futilitarianism; indeed, I have only used these once, and what I read in the cards on that occasion makes me fear not only for my own future, but also for that of the entire human species...
