Show Notes

Eldritch horror is a genre of fiction inspired by the writings of H.P. Lovecraft, among other authors, in the early 20th century. Unlike the genre’s forefathers, however, today’s Eldritch authors — like St. Louis creator Marie Enger — shed underlying themes of xenophobia and racism for modern stories that are inclusive.
