Transcript: For some reason, I've always gravitated towards Lovecraft's more ambiguous portrayals of eldritch abominations. Stuff like "Pickman's Model" and the Dream Cycle are more interesting to me than stuff like "Shadow Over Innsmouth" or "At the Mountains of Madness," where the creatures are openly malevolent.

Maybe it's because I'm primarily a sci fi person rather than a horror person. Maybe it's because the idea of weird stuff that can drive you mad just chilling is more frightening to me than stuff that's specifically out to get you. Whatever the reason, I feel like I'm kinda doing Lovecraft wrong.

Also, read "Pickman's Model," it's my favorite Lovecraft short story and features a painter who is very chill about eldritch abominations, which is super cool to me.
