1.) cobwebs
2.) dry ice in a bucket and a fan blowing it down the stairs ... dry ice falls downward.. (relatively cheap.
3.) get broken dolls and paint them red where the breaks are and leave them around or hanging or asttached to somethin .. 
4.) make stuffed people .. old pants,shirts etc... make head simple and cover with a mask..
5.) mazes are more complicated... would need to set up mirrors or get really long sheets ... at the end of the maze put a live person to scare em good... 
6.) get a haunted sound cassete and have it playing .. 
if u have walkie talkies .. set them up around and talk through them ... 
thats all i can think of right now .,..

Swan Point Cemetary, Providence, RI.  It's not easy to find.  Basically, go in
the front gate, head for the back of the cemetary, and look among the graves
close to the road that runs along the back.  I don't know if the caretaker's
office has wised up yet.  They had no info directing visitors to the grave when
I was there in 1990 for the HPL Centennial.

If you order Jason Eckhart's OFF THE ANCIENT TRACK (title correct, author may
be wrong) from Necronomicon Press, it gives clear directions to the grave and
other Lovecraftian sites in Providence and beyond.  They may sell copies in the
Brown U. bookstore.

Keywords: stephen king sneakers

I read all the posts and didn't see two works, one by King and one about King.

The first one was called "Sneakers" (no relation to current hacker movie) about  
a pair of sneakers in a bathroom stall worn by a dead guy.  I saw this one in a  
collection of horror writers.  Can't remember the title but I think it was  
"Dark" something, or "Blood" something (pretty acurate huh? :-)

The other is the Stephen King Encyclopedia which is about four inches thick and  
has every title, character, location, and item from all of his works to date.   
For those with the insatiable King-mania this is a must see reference book.   
(remember the name of the Sherif's wife who helped Nick out in The Stand? now  
you can look 'er up!)

Actually, if you look real close, quite a few of Stephen King's books 
and stories seem to be based on Lovecraft's works. This is hardly
suprising (check out "Danse Macabre" where SK tells of first dsicovering
Lovecraft in his youth). In the short story area, I think "Graveyard 
Shift", "I am the Doorway", "I Know What You Need", "The Monkey",
"Sometimes They Come Back" and "The Mangler" all have some Lovecraft-
esq nature. Some of his books are like this, too; "The Dark Half" 
reminded me of "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward"; Randal Flagg from
"The Stand" seems a lot like Nyarlathotep, and so on.

It should be noted that the Derleth/Lovecraft "collaborations" are
at least 85-95% Derleth. Lovecrafts contribution to the one "novel" were
two unrelated fragments in his notebook, totalling about three paragraphs.
I like Derleth, though.

Read L. Sprague DeCamp <I think>'s biography of Lovecraft.

	Yes, I read it (and enjoyed it) but then *I'm* a boring guy.  It's

	The biography was obviously written as a labor of love for LSdC,

	For hard-core literary history buffs or someone who is as interested

Confessions obtained by witchfinders often mentioned covens gathering together
at the behest of "The Black Man", supposedly the Devil.  HPL said in "The
Dreams in the Witch-House" that the witches' "Black Man" was an avatar of
Nyarlathotep.  It is possible for Stephen King to associate Flagg (or whomever
it was) with the witches' Black Man and not intend any connection with
Nyarlathotep.  (Just as it's possible for many a story to mention "Old Ones"
and not mean the *Great* Old Ones.)

Actually it's not based on the story at all. If it's the movie I think it is.
Though set in Dunwich and have a movie box that mentions Lovecraft, the story
is completely unrelated.

Fun movie, but I wouldn't say based on anything Lovecraft did, more like
took several words from Lovecraft's work (including the hero's name,
H. Phillip Lovecraft, known to his friends as "Phil").  One of the fun

using magic.

Here's the deal: We've been getting some GREAT
Cthuloid quotes, and hundreds of "Avon Necronomicon
Sucks Rocks" postings.

It's time we got organized for the next strange aeons.
For with strange aeons, even FAQs may die.

Someone needs to write a quick summary of why there
ain't no Necronomicon available to the public (yet!)
and someone needs to collate the best cthulhu slogans
and post 'em periodically like FAQ lists.

Any volunteers?
	And just for the record, here's a Cthulhu reference
from Terry Pratchett:

The Necrotelcomicon, book of communication with the dead.
(a pun on Telcom, the British telephone system), authored by
Abdul-who-just-gets-these-headaches.

	Our Reporter on the Hideous Plain of Leng

Yes, but *is* he the lesser this year?
