Der gute Dr. Watson versieht wie jede Woche seinen freiwilligen Samariterdienst im Londoner East End, als er plötzlich mit einer hageren Gestalt konfrontiert wird, die sich vor Schmerzen krümmt und mit Bisswunden übersäht auf einer Pritsche abgelegt wird. Watson lässt Lovecraft zu Holmes in die Baker Street verfrachten, wo er sich zumindest von der Ohnmacht und seinem ersten Schock erholen kann. Gibt es dieses „menschenfressende Ungeheuer" also doch noch, das seit letztem Herbst rund 20 Tote gefordert hat und dem auch schon Kinder zum Opfer gefallen sind, wie die Presse schreibt?

Wovon ich heute berichten möchte, handelt von den Urinstinkten des Homo sapiens und spielte sich in einer kleinen Ortschaft namens Altham in der Grafschaft Lancashire ab. Manchmal ist der Mensch nur triebgesteuert, aber der Reihe nach.

Von was ich heute berichten möchte, handelt um einen Meeresgott, aber nicht etwa um den römischen Gott Neptun oder dem griechischen Wassergott Poseidon, nein, es handelt sich um den Meeresgott Dagon, eine Abscheulichkeit, wenn man den Berichten Glauben schenken möchte. Ich meinerseits denke da eher an Fabeln und Mythen, wobei der Mensch selbst zu den größten Abscheulichkeiten fähig ist – noch dazu, wenn man im Namen einer Gottheit Menschenopfer zelebriert. So passiert in London, genauer gesagt im Londoner Abwassernetz.

The Call of Cthulhu is one of the most influential horror stories ever written, laying the foundation for what is now known as cosmic horror. First published in 1928, this short story by H. P. Lovecraft follows a fragmented investigation into a strange cult, a mysterious bas-relief, and disturbing accounts that point toward the existence of an ancient and incomprehensible entity. As the narrator assembles documents, testimonies, and reports, a terrifying realization begins to emerge: humanity is neither central nor safe in the universe it inhabits.
