Vibes of the King in Yellow

I paint once a year, and I had a revelation and sketched out (presumably in oils) an invocation. It was really for personal use, but maybe someone will like it. I was trying to achieve the color palette of Carcosa. I deliberately don't draw silhouettes. I don't know how, I don't want to, I'm looking for symbolism. As for the weak points, the yellow mark is too odd for me. I'd appreciate any comments, especially criticism.

What could possibly reflect the king in yellow if you think about it?

I drew Hildred as an anime girl

So kawaii🥺🥺🥺🥺💛💛💛💛maybe he sees himself as an anime girl🤔🤔🤔

Would Hildred still be as insane if he never fell off his horse?

As I was thinking about my sweet baby boy Hildred I started wondering about how different the story would be if actions and/or situations never happened. Like what if Hildred never met Mr. Wilde? Hildred says falling off his horse actually made him better (which is obviously not true) but would he still be that “lazy young man” even after he read The King in Yellow? Unrelated, I think I have a crush on Hildred😳😳😳😳

I Read The King in Yellow (and survived)

With the amount of work that Obsidian Codex Press were putting into this entire project, I went in expecting a certain standard and by god did they deliver.

I would have been more than happy if this was just a well written, slightly eerie, play script. But I truly was not prepared for just how impressed I was going to be with this book.
Act 1 which takes up the first 30 pages or so, is beautifully written, sets a perfect tone and sucks you into this mysterious world.

But as with its fictional counter-part, it is with Act 2 that this play truly reveals itself, and i became so very excited to see where it was going. It felt like the perfect way to adapt the eldritch, madness enduing properties of the 'original.'

My only regret now is that only a few hundred people will really be able to have the same experience that i did reading this play. Though my mind is already racing with ideas of readings, or even a full cast audio performance of this would be incredible.

I don't know how feasible that is, and I would never want to stand on OCPs toes, but it truly would be such a crying shame for this incredible work to go unenjoyed by people who were not able to join the Kickstarter, or kick up the few remaining copies when this goes to retail.

Trying to find a complete KiY Edition

Hoping people more versed in the King in Yellow editions can help me out. I'm looking for one that contains all ten stories by Chambers, Bierce's story, and lovecrafts contributions, if any.

Obsidian Codex Press and The King in Yellow.

I cannot wait to dive into the play script and see what they have done with it, but every part of this is absolutely beautiful and I am so glad i was able to back it. This along with Kennith Heights Annotated KIY seems like the absolute must haves for big fans of these stories.

Obsidian Codex Press Question

So I've only just figured out that there was a massive sale of this cool as hell KIY book and play, and sadly when I went to see if I could order one, they're all sold out. Does anyone know if they'll restock or open orders again, or this a limited stock thing and I'm kinda fucked?

Histoire de Satan : sa chute, son culte, ses manifestations, ses œuvres, la guerre qu'il a faite à Dieu et aux hommes

Geschichte des Satan - History of Satan by l'abbé Auguste François Lecanu (A. Lecanu) is an interesting and historically valuable 19th-century work written from a Catholic perspective.

​

It deals with Satan, demonology, magic, witchcraft, and various esoteric currents, though often critically.

​

I must say, It is not an occult manual or a modern scholarly study, but rather a fascinating document showing how a learned Catholic theologian of the time understood and interpreted these subjects.

​

For historical and cultural context, it is definitely worth reading.
