The Rats in the Wallsby *DisforDelirium

Traditional Art / Drawings / Macabre & Horror

©2009-2013 *DisforDelirium

The Rats in the Walls, completed!

I love cross hatching ever so much. <3

Sadly, the bottom text got cut off by my scanner. It reads:

_{“Magna mater! Magna Mater! Atys…. Diaad aghaidh’s ad aodann…. agus bas Dhonas’s bas dunach ort! Dholas ort, agus ieat-sa! Ungl…. Ungl… Rrrlh… chchch…”}

Inspired by H.P. Lovecrafts "Rats in the Walls"

When I read the last paragraph of this story, I sat there and muttered "Damn, dude..." out loud.

I wrote an essay on this tale in my last year in school. Funnest and freakiest essay to this date

and your rats, mister de la Poer!

Got to be one of my favourite Lovecraft stories. You've captured it perfectly. :]

It's my favourite right after Pickman's Model and The Shadow Over Innsmouth.

Thank you so much, I'm glad I did it justice! <3

in his left hand,  all under a thick netting
of coral reef.  He had  27 bones in his  right hand too,  each perfectly preserved.
Both hands held their breath

Listen closely.
Hit every bar, tour every state.
A river runs interstate through Texas.
Small yellow lines jump straight through it.
Take the US-27  from Fort Wayne to Miami. A second doesn’t make it
to his destination.

Cobalt. Aluminum.  A third was found dead,  drowned in his pool,
an empty shot glass floating beside him.
Cobalt weighed  down his shoulders. Alumi
