Ok so I'm finally getting off my lazy butt and cataloging this insanity!
So a year or so ago for my husband's Christmas present/Valentines day/Birthday present I went a little crazy. My Husband is a big fan of H. P. Lovecraft, and ever since I have known him he has shown me art and told me stories from Lovecraft.
So what did I do for him thats so crazy? I made him a Necronomicon that had the history of H. P. Lovecraft through the various haunts he would frequent when he was still alive. And how these places inspired his stories, or were a part of them in some way. Then I planned a walking tour, and bought us tickes to visit his hometown of Providence Rhode Island where we could use his new Necronomicon as our guide.
So here it is. Paul's very own Necronomicon.
I got this book on amazon home made, I know I should plug the store I bought it from, but I really can't remember. And I don't know how to go that far back in my purchase history.
The Halsey House & White Farmhouse
10 Barnes Street
St. John's Cathedral
Steven Harris House
187 Benefit Street
Providence Art Club
💗LUNCH TIME💗
Fleur De Lys
Market House
Athenaeum
Pendleton
List Art Building
Mumford Home
The Grave
The Observatory
Everything Else
When I originally gave this book to Paul, it didn't have the Polaroids in it and I didn't tell him that I had bought plane tickets for us to visit there. So as a final surprise the last page was our itinerary so he could finally put it all together.
Honorable Mention:
Lovecraft Arts & Sciences
This place was awesome, in the arcade. And they are the one's that originally created the Lovecraft Walking tour that I used as my basis. I changed a few things, and added a few stops. But I largely used this man's tour as basis for what I did. They are also the ones who arranged the Lovecraft square and are working on another Lovecraft memorial. So godspeed you beautiful bastards, you're doing great work.
And your store is the inspiration I want when I buy a house and get to decorate it =P
