The work of American writer H. P. Lovecraft is unique and has become an inexhaustible source of inspiration not only for the global book industry but also for film and games. The large number of followers and continuators of Lovecraft's cycles rightfully gives him the right to be considered the foremost mythmaker of the 20th century.
