Top 10 Cthulhu Mythos Monsters ll Ranked

“The Cthulhu Mythos,” is a name coined by August Derleth, who was the first to publish Lovecraft’s work, and the founder of Arkham House Publishing. But what is it really? Well, simply, the Cthulhu Mythos is sort of like a self-contained literary universe ruled by a pantheon of fearsome deities, many of whom resemble insectoid or aquatic creatures or rather monsters.
The name is obviously derived from Lovecraft’s most famous character Cthulhu, who is the subject of his story “The Call of Cthulhu” first published in Weird Tales in 1926. In the story, Cthulhu is described as a composite of an “octopus, a dragon, and a human caricature…. A pulpy, tentacled head surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings.” He is described as a god who slumbers in the sea, with humanity living in constant fear that he’ll awaken. Now we all love Cthulhu and all monsters in general.
And since, HP Lovecraft's stories are full of all kinds of unknowable creatures, so we thought, why not compile a list of the ten best monsters and, here we are. So let’s not waste any time and get right into it cuz today we’ll be counting down our picks of the top 10 monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos. And Let’s begin!
