Cthulhu - by Geeki Tikis
aka Cthulhu Mythical Creatures Mug in 0 collections
This mug depicts H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu (pronounced: "kuh-THOO-loo"). Cthulhu made his first official appearance in the short story "The Call of Cthulhu," written by Lovecraft in 1926, although no living character in the story ever sets eyes on the actual creature. The characters we meet in the story see Cthulhu either in dreams or in artwork. The narrator of the story says that a statue of Cthulhu resembled, in part, an octopus, a dragon and a human-like or anthropomorphic creature.
The Geeki Tikis Cthulhu Mug is part of their Mythical Creatures line which also includes Medusa, Bigfoot, and Cyclops in this second series. This 2024 series was preceded by a 2017 first series including mermaid, dragon, Kraken, and unicorn. A seasonal Krampus mug was also included separately within this category.
