Carcosa? The monstrous city at which unspeakable horrors are done in name of the great old one Hastur they call their leader? Great. How much is the average rent price?
The king of Carcosa will eventually consume and destroy the entire city with everyone in it when the time comes to increase his power? Well that's every politician ever for you, tell me something new.
The entire city is populated by a cult that worships the King and they often do unspeakable horrors in his name? Yes im aware with how political parties work
The nearby lake of Hali is said to be inhabited by a being of unspeakable power which sometimes comes into conflict with the spawn of Cthulhu at that lake? YOU'RE TELLING ME THIS PLACE EVEN HAS A NICE LAKE TO SIT NEXT TO!? And yes I am also aware about how tourists can be annoying sometimes.
Your spooky "Black stars on a bright sky" you keep mentioning imply there is little air pollution, since seeing a large amount of stars in a city is often wishful thinking. Housing crisis considered this place doesn't seem half bad

"Fuck, I don't want to know anything anymore. This is a world where nothing is solved. Someone once told me, 'Time is a flat circle.' Everything we've ever done or will do, we're gonna do over and over and over again. And that little boy and that little girl, they're gonna be in that room again and again and again forever."

I've barely sunken my teeth into a magnificent series of Malevolent fanfictions, "Surrogate", and it has finished breaking what the original podcast started cracking and then sealed the pieces back with gold.
Plus, Hastur is daddy (in more than one sense)

The first season of True Detective was really like - OH you want a hint of eldritch horror, satanic cults, global conspiracies, folk horror, incredibly unlikeable characters with depth, & STUNNING cinematography of the bayou + backwoods, WE GOT YOU
