CTHULHU: DEEP DOWN UNDER is an exciting new Australian Horror Anthology featuring hundreds of pages of superb storytelling by 24 of the best Australian genre writers, backed by 24 brilliant artists who have produced amazing full colour plates for the book.

Uniquely, each story in this collection adds to the body of Lovecraft’s existing Mythos by being set in or around Australia. We’re returning to the promise of Lovecraft’s first ever Mythos story, ‘The Call of Cthulhu’, which specifically mentions Australia in a key part of the plot.

The collection has been edited by respected and experienced horror fiction writers and editors: Steve Proposch (Bloodsongs magazine, current founder, editor Trouble magazine); Bryce Stevens (Terror Australis magazine, Bloodsongs magazine), and Christopher Sequeira (Terror Australis magazine, Sequence Productions comics).

The writers represent the cream of the Australian dark fantasy scene, with the finest genre novelists and screenwriters and even song lyricists amongst them including Steve Kilby (The Church), Aaron Sterns (Wolf Creek 2), Kaaron Warren, Janeen Webb, Jason Nahrung, Lucy Sussex, Jason Franks, B. Michael Radburn, Robert Hood, Dmetri Kakmi and many more.

The artists are amongst the finest in speculative vision-making including W. Chew Chan, Nick Stathopoulos, Bruce Mutard, Sarah Ellerton, Paul Mason, Gavin L. O’Keefe and many more.

Perhaps the greatest living practitioner of the weird story, and certainly the most lauded exemplar of the Lovecraftian story, Ramsey Campbell, has written an original introduction for this collection, entitled ‘Lovecraft’s Monster’.

You don’t need to know a thing about H.P. Lovecraft or Cthulhu to enjoy any of the stories in this book. If you like the idea of a collection of well-crafted horror and dark fantasy tales all set in Australia, but all VERY different and original; this is the project for you! There are some taut action stories, tales of black humour, psycho-dramas, and an abundance of shocking, cosmic horror, all set in the land down under, or including a key connection to Australia or New Zealand.

This outstanding, world-class anthology is crowd funding on Indiegogo right now, where you can pre-order a paperback, digital version or hardback limited edition along with posters and one-of-a-kind artworks.
