Panel: H.P. Lovecraft: Hack or genious?
Lovecraft imitated other writers like Adgar Allan Poe and Lord Dunsany. Later in his career he tried to devolop his own style. But was he actually a brilliant writer or just a hack pulp fiction writer who had a few interesting ideas about the horror genre?

Panel: The controversial mr. Lovecraft
H.P. Lovecraft was a very strange man. He believed in rationality and science, yet he wrote stories about strange fantastical worlds and creatures. According to his friends he was a very nice man, but he believed in some very bad theories about his fellow human beings. He hardly ever had a woman appear in his stories, yet he was married to one for several years. The panel will try to make sense of what we know about mr. Lovecraft.
