    Bats? The best that they could come up with to represent timeless cosmic horror is a lawn covered in jujubes and some Dark Shadows-grade BATS?

    If this doesn’t warrant a ‘Behind you’ I don’t know what does. He really hasn’t mastered this hide and seek thing, has he?

    @ Tat Wood – Needs BEHIND YOU! and a whole lot more. Tags updated.

    A guy having a mental breakdown at the sight of an approaching tsunami, which will destroy his house.

    Right, that absolutely screams “H.P. Lovecraft” in my mind. Where have the mind-shattering cosmic horrors gone?
