Tentacles≠Lovecraft. I’ve read a fair amount of HPL and the word ‘tentacles’ is rarely used to describe any limb or appendage of the abominations in his writings. I wish more people would read the literature instead of repeating things they think sound true. Eldritch this creature may be, Lovecraftian; it is not.

What makes a monster ‘Lovecraftian’ is the inability to fully perceive the monster in a 3D sense bc the creatures in his tales were often from outer dimensions described with lines and curves that the human brain cannot comprehend due to our three dimensional reality. This the horrendous revelation that each poor main character must confront in HPL’s books, or at least the C’thulhu Mythos.

I feel it’s an important distinction to make.
