Lovecraft: Pioneer of Horror-Fiction
Along with people like Mary Shelley, Brothers' Grim, Edgard Allen Poe, etc...HP Lovecraft is one of the key founders and original pioneers of the horror-goth fiction genre. He created what we now know today as the "Penny Dreadful" franchise, and he's well known for other short stories such as the Dunwich Horror, Shadow Over Innsmouth, and others.
HP Lovecraft's stories involve the paranormal, ghosts, mutants, demons, the occult, witchcraft, etc. His stories also revolve around themes of self-reaffirming European-American consciousness, because his stories often involve paranormal happenings with country-bumpkin farming communities, old European aristocracy depicted as endowed with arcane-potential, haunted historical buildings, insane asylums, Wicca covens, mutants, demonic-mermaids, and interdimensional beings, etc.
Today, the horror-fiction legacy is quite commercially successful in pop-culture, fashion, entertainment, and other areas of human expression today. HP Lovecraft is also notorious and recognized for his unapologetic socially conservative views, although he identified as a democrat during his lifetime, he nonetheless wrote many essays on patriotic, traditionalist and antiquarian attitudes. Although Lovecraft supported FDR, he published the "Conservative Journal" during his lifetime. Modern liberals will often eagerly condemn HP Lovecraft for his right-minded views, as if it is such a horrendous crime that he loved and appreciated his own civilization (the West).
