Television

Title Notes
Cast a Deadly Spell TV Movie. The movie is very much an homage to the works of H. P. Lovecraft. Though not based on any one particular story by Lovecraft, the film features many Lovecraftian tropes, and can be considered to take place against the unified backdrop which has come to be known as the Cthulhu Mythos. The nightclub is called Harry Bordon's Dunwich Room. Frequent references are made to the Necronomicon, the Great Old Ones, Cthulhu and Yog Sothoth throughout the film.
Dark Shadows Episodes 885 to 980 of the gothic soap-opera, a storyline commonly known as 'The Leviathans', was inspired by 'The Cthulhu Mythos'.[79]
Fate/Zero In Episode 13, Caster summons a giant sea monster by chanting Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.
The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy The season 1 episode "Big Trouble in Billy's Basement" and the season 5 episode "Prank Call of Cthulhu" feature Yog-Sothoth and Cthulhu respectively.[80]
The Real Ghostbusters The episode The Collect Call of Cathulhu references the Necronomicon and an attempt to revive the so-called "Cathulhu," described as one of the "Great Old Ones". Lovecraft is also mentioned by name.[81]
Rod Serling's Night Gallery The season 2 episodes "Pickman's Model"[82][83] and "Cool Air"[82][84] are based on the original 1926 Lovecraft short stories of the same name, while "Professor Peabody's Last Lecture" heavily references the Mythos.[82]
Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated The episodes "The Shrieking Madness" and "Pawn of Shadows" guest-star Professor H.P. Hatecraft, author of otherworldly horror stories, whose name is a play on Lovecraft's. Mythos symbolism abounds, including the fact that Hatecraft's character Char Gar Gothakon closely resembles Cthulhu.[85]
South Park Features Cthulhu as a character in the season 14 episodes Mysterion Rises and Coon vs. Coon and Friends.[86]
Supernatural In season 6, episode 21 "Let it Bleed", Lovecraft and six others performed a ritual to pierce the veil between worlds, opening a door into Purgatory on March 10, 1937. A creature of Purgatory came through and killed Lovecraft a few days later on March 15.[87] In season 7, it would become clear that the 'Old Ones' of Cthulhu Mythos are Leviathans, which were the first beings created by God before being locked into Purgatory so that they would not be a threat to later creations.
True Detective Features references to The Yellow King and Carcosa. There are multiple references to both The Yellow King and Carcosa throughout the first season of the series. True Detective ep 1-8.[88]
