HP Lovecraft: Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this the tale of the mountains of madness Lovecraft: it's about a scientific expedition to antarctica that finds a terrifying ancient evil Clive Barker: is it penguins Lovecraft: Lovecraft: m-maybe

Lovecraft: look it's not just penguins Lovecraft: these penguins are really scary Lovecraft: for one thing, they're really big Barker: so emperor penguins Lovecraft: no i Lovecraft: you know what shut up

Lovecraft: the important thing isn't the penguins Lovecraft: the important thing is the mountains Barker: ah yes those mountains of madness Lovecraft: yes Barker: the ones alluded to in your title Lovecraft: yes Barker: those mountains Lovecraft: yes

Lovecraft: ok so these mountains Lovecraft: they're not like ordinary mountains Lovecraft: they're strange and sinister Lovecraft: like the strange and disturbing paintings of Nicholas Roerich King: Koontz: Poe: Barker:

Barker: "strange and disturbing paintings of nicholas roerich" huh Poe: clive don't start Barker: no no edgar tell me you don't want to hear this explanation Barker: because i want to hear it Barker: i think we all do King: i'd kinda like to hear it Barker: yeah i thought so

Nicholas Roerich: so i'm just gonna paint a nice pink mountain here Roerich: maybe put a happy little tree right there Roerich: gotta give him a friend Roerich: like I always say, 'everyone needs a friend' Lovecraft: horrifying!

Roerich: now we'll paint some happy little clouds Roerich: Remember how free clouds are Roerich: they just lay around in the sky all day long Lovecraft: ghastly!

Lovecraft: horrifying! look at those soft pastel hues! Barker: Lovecraft: the almost hypnotic sense of peace and tranquility! Barker: Lovecraft: a certain "asian" quality to those mountains Barker: there it is
