How to Summon the Lord Hastur is a delightfully unsettling Lovecraftian horror comic created by the talented duo of Cara Stemo (artist) and Johnny C (writer).
The Story
Part of the wildly creative Cthulhu Is Hard to Spell anthology published by Wannabe Press, this comic takes readers on a tongue-in-cheek journey through the arcane rituals required to summon the dread Lord Hastur. Stemo’s distinctive art style perfectly captures the cosmic horror aesthetic while injecting dark humor into ancient eldritch traditions. The result is a comic that honors Lovecraft’s legacy while poking gentle fun at the absurdity of trying to contact unspeakable entities.
Johnny C’s writing balances genuine tension with moments of levity, making the forbidden knowledge feel both terrifying and oddly accessible. Whether you’re a die-hard Lovecraft fan or just enjoy a good horror comedy, this story delivers the goods.
