Two groups with different locations but similar practices share more than just their blood sacrifice rituals. They both chant an inhuman phrase: "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn," which means "In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming." This chant leads Francis Thurston, a young investigator, on a journey to investigate the cult of Cthulhu and ultimately to the most remote spot on Earth - R'lyeh, the corpse-city that houses the risen corpse of Cthulhu, Earth's greatest terror. First published in 1928 as "The Call of Cthulhu," this story by H.P. Lovecraft is considered one of his most famous works and was later adapted into a successful role-playing game system known as Cthulhu Mythos.
