Description

Museum thefts connect to Dunwich lineages.

Sensory reports conflict in detail — scale, colour, limb count — yet agree that the phenomenon offends proportion.

Olfactory notes in depositions: salt, copper, wet stone, and organic sweetness like fruit fermenting in a closed room.

Historical Record

Verify edition before citing as Lovecraft artifact.

Post-1937 pastiche and game supplements multiplied references; the archive tags those layers expanded mythos unless a primary citation is supplied.

Cross-links at dossier foot should be treated as hypotheses, not as family trees carved in stone.

Field Observations

Do not engage alone; do not accept hospitality from hosts who show windows to other eras.

Submit Form Theta-9 if conversation turns to cities remembered only in sleep.
