Today, one of the greatest archeologists in history would be 138 years old. Alas, he died in 1939, the Curse of Tutankhamun having passed him by completely… Why the curse? If you had to ask, please go away now and feel ashamed for yourself. Howard Carter is remembered because he discovered the Tomb of Tutankhamun. [...]

Oh the days of the late 1980′s and early 1990′s. When most of the adventure still happened in your head… Now, Google has seen the signs of the times and gone retro. Yes, I know what day it is. Still, would it not be great? And this is what home sweet home and surrounding areas [...]

Out of the Æons comes the stark revelation, H.P. Lovecraft, Master of the Macabre had a Facebook decades before it was fashionable. I dare speculate the Great Race of Yith had a hand in that one. Here is proof, by the way: And while we are a bit on the lighthearted side of darkness, we [...]
I am an anthropologist and in this capacity a minor scholar of the Cthulhu Mythos and H.P. Lovecraft. I am also quite obviously heavily into Steampunk and Dieselpunk and like travelling.
More about me can be found here and also here (in German).
