Quoted from Don
H. P. Lovecraft's haunted town of Arkham, brought to the big screen for the first time.


This was produced?

This is based on a play that was produced by Wild Claw Theater in Chicago, but it has yet to be produced on screen. If it were to be made into a movie, this would be the first major motion picture to take place in Arkham.

Pretty good read.  Never read Lovecraft as a kid, but I read several authors and seen several TV shows and movies inspired by him.

But I would think that the sheriffs would have covered up the writing on the walls.

Hmmm... I'm afraid you're right. Idea: Maybe Lilith could find a diary under one of the stones or something hidden where the sheriffs wouldn't have known.

Or maybe the writings only appear to Lilith.  You can include a scene in which the sheriffs don't see the letters, and they think she is definitely crazy.

Just a thought.
