Overview
Expedition register ME-1936-T74/8389 — cross-index under slug `the-case-of-howard-phillips-lovecraft`.
The incident titled The Case of Howard Phillips Lovecraft is filed under fiction because the alternative filing — fact — would close several departments.
The Case of Howard Phillips Lovecraft survives as narrative record — plot separated here from the entities it wakes, so scholars need not drown in the same revelation twice.
The Necronomicon is quoted too often as gossip; when a dossier cites Alhazred, demand the edition and the translator. Our English paraphrases deliberately blunt the lines that injure readers who memorise instead of understand.
What sleeps is not dead; what is catalogued here may be doing neither.
