Founded by Andrew Migliore in 1995, the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival ® & CthulhuCon™ evangelizes the genres of Cosmic Horror and the Weird Tale through the exhibition of cinematic works by professional and independent filmmakers, as well as special events, book signings, author readings, panel discussions, musical performances, and much more. We embrace and foster new voices in the genre, including those of women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ creators, and strive to present an international showcase of related films and entertainment.
