Hasta La Gadget!

This Cthulhu lamp is very impressive and intimidating. You have to be brave to decorate with this kind of lighting. It was made by Karl Dupéré-Richer, who clearly knows how to terrorize and decorate at the same time.

It was made using “the back of one PVC patio chair, 14 chair feet, one flowerpot, one umbrella base, two bike tires, 30 cans, many pieces of PVC pipes, one acrylic globe light, some car body parts, a few pieces of garden hose and about 1,000 devoured human souls.”

That sounds like Cthulhu’s diet alright. This thing is just amazing. I love how those eyes glow as if he has just awakened and is ready to steal your soul.

The lamp hangs proudly on the wall at the EtOH Brasserie in Montreal, Canada. And if you have any doubt just how awesome this thing is, wait til you see how huge it is…

He’s making a list and checking it twice. God help those who have been naughty instead of nice. Santa Cthulhu’s coming to town! Artists Amy Rawson and Brian East make a new needle felted Christmas Cthulhu almost every year and this is the latest. In fact, it’s the fifth Santa Cthulhu.

Santa Cthulhu is sitting in his Octi-Sleigh, ready to deliver toys to good kids and to drive the naughty one’s insane by just showing up. The Shoggoth pulling Santa and his sleigh is a nice touch. Who needs eight tiny reindeer when you’ve got a shapeless congeries of protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes forming and un-forming as pustules of greenish light?

Cthulhu Santa is about 11″ tall and is made of 100% needle felted wool, while the sleigh is sculpted from epoxy clay and wire, and Shaggoth is needle-felted with epoxy clay teeth and glass cabochon eyeballs.

The whole sculpture is for sale through Rawson’s Etsy store for $595(USD). Even the pricetag is frightening, though it does look like it took a ton of work to make this, so it’s worth it. I’d love to have this on my mantle for the holidays.

This giant Cthulhu plush toy is great for so many things. It’s decorative of course, can be used as a kids seat, a giant pillow with arms that wrap around you, and even crib decor as seen here. Of course you risk scarring your child for life.

So what if your child never ever goes for a swim. That’s nothing next to the fun you’ll have scaring him or her with this giant beast. It even has a freakish gaping mouth that looks as scary as the rest of it. This crazy huge Cthulhu monster was made by Etsy seller KfiatekGiftedHands and it certainly makes a statement in your nursery.

Unfortunately, this thing will cost you a wallet-eating $460(USD) or so. On top of that, you need to pay to have it shipped from the U.K. Hey giant Cthulhus don’t come cheap.

Are you a fan of the ancient ones and don’t mind when they awaken and destroy everything? Guard your sanity closely as you play with this awesome Cthulhu chess set.

Cthulhu is evil yeah, but he is actually pretty cute in this handmade chess set. It’s a must have for serious fans of the tentacled one.

I just love the detail on this set. The Pawns are Little Fat Tentacles, Rooks are Rhogog, the Knights are Zvilpogghua, the Bishops are Chaugnar Faugn and the Queens/Kings are Little Fat Cthulhu. Each piece is handmade from baked and glazed polymer clay.

The Little Fat Cthulhu Custom Chess Set is made to order. Get it in green and purple or change it up with colors of your choice. It will cost you $250 (USD) over on Etsy.

It’s harder than ever for a USB gadget to stand out these days, what with nearly everything seeming old hat, but ThinkGeek has cooked up something new that’s sure to get noticed. While it unfortunately doesn’t double as a memory stick as you might expect, the retailer’s new USB Squirming Tentacle is very much a tentacle, and a squirming one. See for yourself after the break, and be prepared to shell out $25 if you feel the need to answer this particular call of Cthulhu.
