Brian Lumley

Brian Lumley (born 2 December 1937) is an English horror-fiction writer and a major contributor to the Cthulhu Mythos inventing a number of new Great Old Ones, Elder Gods, grimoires, and mythos locations.

Early on in his career Lumley corresponded with August Derleth and wrote two collections for Arkham House, The Caller of the Black (1971) and The Horror at Oakdeene and Others (1977).

The bulk of Lumley's mythos can be divided into three main series, one featuring the occult investigator Titus Crow, another one of stories taking place in Lovecraft's Dreamland and the Primal Land stories taking place in ancient Theemd'hdra.

Lumley later achieved mainstream success with the Necroscope and Psychomech books.
