Huge: Lovecraft, Ron Howard, Terrifying

It's difficult to articulate how I feel about this, so I'll just give you the facts. The Strange Adventures of H.P. Lovecraft is being made into a movie. Ron Howard will be involved. There is a possibility that the good name of Lovecraft will be tarnished. There is also a possibility that it will not be. A betting man would not put money on the latter.

Should the Necronomicon be taught in school?

I say yes. So does Charles West, member of the Arkham school board.

"The controversial school board member reportedly interrupted a heated discussion about adding fresh fruit to school lunches in order to bring his motion to the table. With the aid of a flip chart, West laid out his six-point plan for increased madness, which included field trips to the medieval metaphysics department at Miskatonic University, instruction in the incantations of Yog-Sothoth, and a walkathon sponsored by local businesses to raise money for the freshman basketball program."
