The took the trident to carve searching for scales. But I don't know I was looking at Captain Sparrow he is gaining the Innsmouth look. As if Elon Musk and Caitlin Jenner. Coincidence? Probably
this answers so many questions i had about one of the oblivion questlines, where it has the deep ones mentioned, and the town above it is all burnt and the remaining people look really freaking weird. its cool that it was inspired by this.

The second half of the bloodborne dlc was inspired by the shadow over insmouth and miyazaki even credited llovecraft with a rune with the letters h.p carved in
I've played that game so many times. One of, if not, my all time favorite game due to it's well done representation of gothic then later cosmic horror. Plus it's made by fromsoft, a top tier game studio. Kos, grant us eyes so we may see, as you once did for the vacuous Rom.
I'm sure you've come to the conclusion that elden ring has taken a ton of inspiration from lovecraft too. This video has given a short explanation of the deep ones as i was trying to figure out where they fit in elden ring. The hybrid of deep one+human interestingly sound like the albinaurics, they can walk but when they get older they have to crawl on all fours, the second generation are likened to frogs like these are. they came from the nox who are underground (underwater for deep ones) originally from above ground but were sent underground now near where miquella sleeps, just like cthulu, with a cult worshipping him not understanding his purpose just like cthulu does. There is even more but I'll just stop there, since this is necro-posting
*" Now... at my end... I can fully see. 'My last case opened in me a new fear... a real fear... a fear of myself, of what I am... and of what I have always been. 'All that I was, is now lost. Hope ?

"* *- Jack Walter's diary, last entry, 1922*
You know, I am proud to be from Rhode Island (Sometimes) because HP Lovecraft is from Rhode Island (Providence Rhode Island). I've always loved this series, and myths about HP Lovecraft's works.

Now I remember the comic! It was the avatar of Nyarlatlotheps avatar, breeding the coming of Cthulhu. The baby. They also used this magic language of the Old Ones called Aklo..
I kinda like the idea that Dagon is just the oldest living deep one and thus is king. Maybe Dagon is a title. I still think hydra is a great old one. But like it needs to breed its own mate.
It would be nice to feature some of Lovecraft's stories - looking into the meanings of each, and critique them. Colour out of space, Call of cthulhu, Horror at Red Hook, Music of Eric Zann, stuff like that!
Bishop Gale Actually, Del Toro was obsessed with The Creature from the Black Lagoon as a child, and he would use it as inspiration for a lot of his work. The whole reason he made ‘The Shape of Water’ was because he wanted to see a movie where the creature got the girl in the end, which he wanted to see as a kid.
Yeah! Another excellent job! I enjoy seeing that you have posted another page in this series. The art and the obvious caring you put into the creation of this reveal a high standard that I truly appreciate. Quality sir, can speak volumes. I look forward to your book. Always, regards.
If you go to Hackdirt in Cyrodiil in ES IV, they mention the Deep Ones. As a lover Myth and Fiction, I am thankful for your channel. I know its not exactly your area, but for your own enjoyment. I recommend Elder Scrolls Lore. Its very interesting.
And Bethesda published "Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth", which is based on The Shadow Over Innsmouth and thus prominently features the Deep Ones, only a few months before they released Oblivion.
@@johntabel8268 Not only that. Hermaeus Mora is entirely a reference of Lovecraftian elder Gods as Sanguine is on greek gods (especially Pan and Dionysus).
You're videos have been on such a roll, Mr. Explained, and this video about the amazing and horrifying Deep Ones in the Cthulhu Mythos is so awesome! :) I can't wait for the next video! :)
I actually like the ending of the original since it does came as a shock that the character you're following and stands as the reader stand in is indeed one of them. Only in the last pages does he seperate himself from us readers trying to make him a stand in for us and becomes a character for himself.
I think that the Deep Ones were Lovecraft's version of the Aquatic Ape hypothesis. This means humans may be more closely related to Deep Ones. This could mean they are trying to create Aquaman a being with the abilities of both species
knew a guy who had gills removed in the san francisco bay area. He was a mutant, until he went and had em removed. he said they were constantly hurting, existing just beneath the skin, and that it was just a constant irritation. This was when he was in high school. Fun stuff exists that most of us REFUSE to accept. That's fine. Tiny people are real too.
I always like the way you present your topics. It feels like you are speaking and telling stories from the heart and for people who had the privilege to listen to you. (Sigh) I don't know...it's just this channel this great.☺😙💗👍
Oooo, I'm watching this at a good time. A gamer TH-camr I enjoy watching (John Wolfe) was playing a recent game called The Sinking City that is Lovecraftian & deals with some of this. Very amusing!
I'm a brand new subscriber as of about 3min. ago & I'm happy 1 c u started off with some info. On the DEEP ONES,I TOTALLY LOOK 4ward 2 more interesting episodes
Isn’t ‘The Thing that Should Not Be’ from Metallica about this? ‘Hybrid children watch the sea Pray for father roaming free’ ‘Fearless wretch insanity he watches lurking beneath the sea’ Or is it about Cthulu himself?
It sounds like some form of overactive or underactive thyroid problem to me. Just saying. Lol. Mostly kidding. I love this video :-) Great work. You did a good job at explaining it better than I could.
Dagon is very interesting to me, in that he is just a mundane deep one. But many years has made him larger, mightier and more horrifying than most, turning him into a deity.
I think the magic is not supernatural, but to them a natural science produced by their highly evolved biology and scientific understanding of the universe. I think that even the geometry in their architecture is so advanced that it makes brick structures bend time and space, or something along those lines. I think this applies to Dagon as well. With strange eons even death may die, and perhaps Dagon has changed into something more than a deep one.
There's a movie called "Dagon" that I saw years ago when I was a kid. I never knew the name all I knew was that it was a movie about fish people. After watching this I googled Deep Ones and foudn out that the movie i saw is indeed based on The Shadow Over Innsmouth. So Thank you for helping close and near decade long mystery.
It won't really make a difference, there are tonnes of topics and videos I want to make before covering babylonian mythology so I'll get to it when I get to it.
No idea I don't have an exact timeframe as things are quite busy right now with the book and other issues, I won't be covering it this year that's for sure.
Hey, it's October again, and I was wondering if you'll add to the Lovecraft mythos? How about something about The Mounds? The time travel creepiness in that story reminds me of a dream within a dream kind of thing. The Mound is also a good story to focus on if you wish to discuss Lovecraft's xenophobia and racism, which I think was the real inspiration for Lovecraft's particular brand of horror. Anyway, the Mounds in the USA were discovered to be older than people realized humanity could've existed... older than the church! Lovecraft was able to seize that sort of mind-bending pop-science and turn it into The Mound.
Hellboy comics are a great source for this stuff. The ogdru jihad is obviously a ref to azathoth and they even have frogmen that are 100percent deep ones.
I never realized the fishing village in Bloodborne was inspired by Lovecraft. Obviously the Great Ones in the game are a dead ringer, but they really went the extra mile with the homage.
I’m pretty sure I saw my ex-husband in those first couple pictures. No, wait, the Deep Ones can think, can’t they? Very interesting video! I saw a movie called “Dagon” (sp?) about these. It was a rather rubbish movie, but I found the characters intriguing.
All of this lore sounds exactly like the plot of the film called Dagon. Fishing village with strange, fish like inhabitants who end up sacrificing a visitor to Dagon at the end.
C.H.U.D. was the closest to an attempt to go there without backstory (IE trying to cut out Lovecraft, imho) so it was just a rubber monster movie. But Dagon did a pretty good job of it
We don't know their end game, but the fact that they are keeping and possibly breeding shoggoths means nothing good for human kind. But some don't follow the master plan, like Asenath Waite. (Ephraim Waite, spoiler)
H.R. Giger was the artistic creator behind the Alien design. He became famous for inventing the biometal/mechanical art most people now copy. He was commisioned to design the Alien creature and well the rest is history.
Prometheus is basically At The Mountains of Madness in space. Del Toro wanted to do an ATMoM movie, but it was rejected by the studio because they felt it was too similar to Prometheus.
Well the movie was written and directed by Guillermo del Toro who is a fan of lovecraft's work so I wouldn't be surprised if it was inspired in some way by the deep ones.
When I was playing the elder scrolls IV oblivion I fucking spit my delicious tomato soup all over my pj's when I realised there's a quest based around them
I would like to humbly make one correction. In the story obed Marsh is stated as having no intentions of handing over his daughters to the deep ones to conceive as it was agreed upon. Even after his passing, it is said that women are the ones the deep ones breed with and not males to female deep ones. The protagonist also states this by mentioning the peculiar look of a woman on his cousins side of the family. His uncle locking his cousin in a asylum due to the deformities which are actually the transformation occurring within him.
The horror marathon begins!
Awesome

is all the alien movies based on HP lovecraft mythology/?
H.R. Giger was the artistic creator behind the Alien design. He became famous for inventing the biometal/mechanical art most people now copy.
He was commisioned to design the Alien creature and well the rest is history.
yes yes i was confused cause u know thsi guy is HP and that one HR xd ty guys and he was writer/artist?
The idea to have H.R. Giger design the creature was original screenplay writer Dan O'Bannon's. Both were quite the Lovecraft aficionados.
Prometheus is basically At The Mountains of Madness in space. Del Toro wanted to do an ATMoM movie, but it was rejected by the studio because they felt it was too similar to Prometheus.

When I was playing the elder scrolls IV oblivion I fucking spit my delicious tomato soup all over my pj's when I realised there's a quest based around them
Bethesda also published a Lovecraft-based video game that was based on the same story, just a few months before Oblivion came out.
I'd like to hear your explanation of the Dunwich Horror. : )
I would like to humbly make one correction. In the story obed Marsh is stated as having no intentions of handing over his daughters to the deep ones to conceive as it was agreed upon. Even after his passing, it is said that women are the ones the deep ones breed with and not males to female deep ones. The protagonist also states this by mentioning the peculiar look of a woman on his cousins side of the family. His uncle locking his cousin in a asylum due to the deformities which are actually the transformation occurring within him.
I got a question how about these creatures survive in a desert setting or attic setting
