Whether this is your first experience at the HPLFF, or you've been attending for years, Ken Hite explaining the Cthulhu Mythos is sure to be entertaining AND informative!

We gathered some of the filmmakers working on movie adaptations of Lovecraft's works. Join us as we chat with Barbara Crampton, Richard Stanley, Huan Vu, and Jan Roth about their upcoming movies!

The four composers who produced "Out of the Aeons" - Will Severin, Reber Clark, Troy Sterling Nies and Mars Homeworld will once again form the multi-headed Hydra and offer up theirr hands-on experience and discuss what the expectations are in delivering a truly haunting and powerful musical score for a Lovecraftian film. Because the genre relies so strongly on mood and Atmosphere, music is a key element in making or breaking it successful HPL inspired bit of cosmic horror Cinema.

We're all familiar with various Mythos creatures causing mental mayhem on hapless investigators, but how would that actually work? This talk will explore the utmost extremes of human perception and how the worst entities can affect that. Due to the nature of the subject matter this will cover some dark topics but will be rewarding to horror fans curious about what losing SAN points could happen in real life.
