I love The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. And I always found the dreamlands so intresting.
Jakomi of the Rose my favorite Lovecraft story, I listen to it while falling asleep in the hope that I will have a lucid dream and go there.
I always find the Dreamlands such an interesting location. So strange, yet in some cases, perhaps accessible
Eastside Show SCP Holy shit, it's Eastside!!! Love your channel, man!
thank you very much!
i always wanted to know about Ilek Vad. Seems like a really intense dream city yet we know next to nothing about it, except that it's wondrous even by Dreamland standards and has an opal throne.
It's not entirely clear if the gods of the Dreamlands are totally unable to interact with the physical world. Nodens, for instance, has been mentioned as interacting with the waking world, and it's implied (though not entirely confirmed) that the Great Ones themselves are the mythological gods of the ancient world.
I personally would enjoy seeing information presented on the various areas within the Dreamlands, considering how strange and mystical that place is.
Eastside Show SCP yeah, that would be awesome! Big fan of your videos by the way. :)
Then you should read the Necronomicon. I could loan you my copy. (laughs)
I'm working on a table top Call of Cthulu investigation into the Dreamlands, this was really helpful in getting a better sense of what the Dreamlands are. Thanks Mr. H XD
Jordan Ferguson I'm intrigued
I liked using the idea of people getting stranded in the dreamlands, or even being taken an kept there via some method as dream slaves, as a hook for players going into the dreamlands. The idea of a occultist in the higher end of society calling on a group to investigate his children's strange state of being in a unwakeable trace or sleep, which could take them thru investigating the occultist's tomes an things he had in his home, to also investigating if there is something else at work in the Dreamlands.
I am working on a lovecraftian setting and adventure in which the world of the setting is covered in veils that obscure aspects of reality and perception of those looking thru them, but thru several methods people can pierce of pass thru the veils, but will find out that the veils were placed to both hide the old one's from the perception of people an the people from the perception of the old ones.
Jordan Ferguson Dude, in that case, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended reading/listening to the (audio)book, Johannes Cabal: The Fear Institute by Jonathan L. Howard. It'll really give u a good understanding of the Dreamlands.
Jordan Ferguson that’s a great idea and I would love to play whenever you finish it
They're one of the few unfortunate people who came to the Dreamlands not through psychically sensitive dreaming but through an active portal created by a Dreamlands creature trying to get home. Now if you die in the dream you die for real...Thanks for all the great comments fellow Mr. H and Lovecraft fans ^^
Who's to say we don't live in the Dreamlands ? But then again some who believe in the multiverse, have an idea that our 'Universe ' is the center due to imagination. Not saying I put any stock in it, just find it an interesting theory.
Great commentary on the Dreamlands. As I almost always do, I learned something new by listening to your posts. I would love your thoughts and comments on Sandman, a comic book series written by Neil Gaiman. As I understand it, Gaiman was influenced by Lovecraft's work.
Thanks for doing this video! The Dreamlands were always one of my favorite elements of Lovecraft's work.
lucid dreamer squad!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I do believe that there are actuall physical portals into the dreamlands. Ghouls are able to pass through to our world's grave yards to feast on corpses. Though they rarely do this as the grave sites of the gugs in the dreamland underworld are more fruitful.
My entry is usually through a house I used to live in or a factory where I used to work.
I like to think that the dreamlands are the dreams of another being like Azathoth, maybe the gods from Azathoths dream are just unable to go there. Or unwilling to put up with competition from new gods.
A place where there's no lonely times, just dreams
I was introduced to the dreamlands from playing and reading about QUAKE CHAMPIONS. This sounds even more interesting now after watching this video
Great videos. Thanks for continuing on the cthulhu mythos.👍👍
Sounds like a good premise for a video game.
My Call of Cthulhu party is in the Dreamlands now. Cheers for this!
Honestly, a movie or TV show that depicts either the dreamqyest of unknown kadath, or simply that concept and wild world building, would be amazing
The best of the Lovecraft Dreamlands videos.
Watching this before going to sleep.
I’ve got a crazy theory that the Dreamlands (or parts of them) used to be a part of the waking world, but somehow transitioned to the dream dimension. I need to reread Lovecraft’s works to see if I can find more evidence.
I believe I had a dream with very weird looking set of stairs that where in a weird place. Because of how weird they looked I didn’t go down them.
Yeah I've been there once...with Hayley Williams of Paramore fame for some reason. We were surrounded by levitating monoliths and waterfalls that hung from gravity-defying isles. Felt like I was there for a week. Weird stuff.
That's one of the nicer places.
To add to that celestial auditors a immortal and "plan it's own fate "being also live in a 4D dimension and you might meet a few there
I would enter, seek out Ulthar, and live with the cats!!
I often feel more awake when I'm asleep to the point where I've considered writing a dream walker series where a man who dreams possesses different versions of himself and others by transferring his consciousness in his sleep. Recording some of my more mundane and fantastical dreams.
I used to have reoccurring dreams of finding a secret staircase in my basement. Every level would be identical to my basement, but gradually more dilapidated. Every time I had the dream, I would get deeper in levels. Eventually the levels just looked like caves, but the deeper I continued, I noticed an orange glow that would get brighter as I descendent. The deepest I ever got was I could start to hear noises, like whispering or far off muffled talking, I couldn’t understand what was being said. Where a staircase leading down should have been, there was an door that was slightly open. The orange light and noises were coming from the other side. I would start to gently push the door open to sneak a peak beyond the door.
I don’t know if I’ve been here specifically, but I had an interesting dream one.
I was in a room set up like mine, but it was made of a grayish brown wood. On the nightstand next to the bed, I heard what sounded like a small puppy. When I saw it, it looked like it had part of its head removed and had part of a rag doll ‘s head stitched in its place, with a tiny button for an eye.
I’m a light sleeper so the dream land would be a waking distant memory unfortunately. This had me so fixed. Characters/progressive storylines are my thing but to simply explore this via Mr Hs vid, great stuff. A real surprise!
well i can lucid dream on command but, id rather not die xD
for me the dreamlands are like a phased version of all that exists just being realy madmans place with impossible buildings
why would someone not wanna stay and learn its kultur and science
If you can have your life span expanded then I’m up for dreaming to this place and never leaving, I mean it sounds like heaven but expect theirs actually layers to it and not just clouds lol.
Mr H do you think you can do a video about the Necronomicon?
Ps. Also the sunken city of R’yla.
We are currently a team recreating the dreamland for our upcoming game based on HP Lovecraft, i cannot say anything more but some videos should start to be shown late this summer or early fall.
enjoyed the video though i would have liked to know a bit more about the moon and the the beasts that live there , pretty much any sorta of insight on that location wouldve been amazing.
Here from bloodborne, always been a huge fan of lovecraft, I've read all the popular stories but hadn't heard of the dream cycle collection. The more I read about them, the more I realized Miyazaki has borrowed heavily from them for both bloodborne and elden ring. The giant sprawling castles In beautiful lands, horrible monsters that were once men, the common theme of dying then being reborn to enter the dream again, and of course the great ones. So fkn cool that my two favorite pieces of media and creators are so intertwined.
Can you explain yuggoth and the plateau of leng
I enjoyed it very much thanks as always Mr H your videos are great as always and yes if I could enter I would and yes stay as well and explore the dreamlands although climbing 700 steps of stairs is not something I am looking forward to 😁
I do wanna go in there, take a smoke and watch the lucid environment, the challenge will be to approach the dark land. Love this Cthulhu Mythos videos, thanks.
I visit them from time to time. I usually explore the woods and the forbidden swamp of the centipede spiders.
After watching this video the deaths in the Dreamlands reminds me of Nightmare on Elm Street. I wonder if Wes Craven ( sorry if I misspelled it ) was inspired by this as well when he created Freddie Krugger
Michael Cairns Possibly. I mean, it would be interesting.
The way this dude speaks could make salad ingredients sound scary
I’ve always thought what if this was all real if you wanted people to not go looking for these monsters wouldn’t you tell them it all fake to keep them safe
I remember speculation that humanity may be able to escape the return of the Great Old Ones by fleeing to the Dreamlands
my idea the whole story was an acid trip
This is my actual theory the dreamlands are a reality thought up by human dreams similar to how our many multiverses are the dreams of azathoth. The dreamlands are simply another layer of reality where humans are the azathoth. It is just it can stay intact when you wake up because there are billions of dreaming humans. While there is only one dreaming azathoth.
Love the Lovecraftian content. Take my sub and like!
It has been said that in the Dreamlands you can only get white bread, ribs, and drinks. Yet however slow change there may be, it seems to have come, for now one can obtain fried okra, nachos, sausage, and (oh the horror!) Cobb salad.
Other Great Old Ones: Meh, Dreamlands arent my thing
Nyarletotepth: *It's free real estate*
Great vid would love to know about more love craft locations
There is something called Universes and multiverses and even hyperverses you see the "Dreamland"is a 4d dimension in which you can feel touch taste and DIE but it is risky tasks to even dream such a place because you will end up creating a inter-universal being in other words create yourself in that world but because it is 4D dimension it will be like lucid dreaming as it feels my advice "safe next to the guards or go where you see light"
Love the video need mroe of this
I think i d found one of the enter points to the dreamlands in the story at the mountains of madnes
Dark Krafter correct hollow earth is a misconception of the real astral planes
Oh? It sounds possible. I know that in one of the stories Lovecraft ghostwrote, he basically confirmed the thing Danforth saw that drove him crazy was Kadath.
Will you be doing a video on the Hounds of Tindalos?
Love the dreamlands
Same, underrated stories Imo.
you know if someone was make this into a film it should be a sequel to the book , and instead of just simple foreseer protagonist it should Conan , just wants to see Conan go up against a Gug and night stalker amd save the ghouls from the black ship , it be such an epic adventure
In the Cthulhu mythos is there some kind of hell or a world similar to hell or a story of how the world ends
All of reality is the dream of the Blind Idiot God, Azathoth. When we wakes up, the universe will end.
If you die in the Dreamlands; you die for REAL, Morty!
It is actually accessible through a few places in the waking world but to say where would be disasterous
So was Randolph carter the only mortal to successfully maneuver the dreamlands in search of Kadath?
Great art. Where did it come from?
A couple of the pictures I recognise from lovecraft board games published by fantasy flight. Mr h uses lots of pictures from fantasy flight
Make more cthulhu mythos explained
I gave you an hour and a half Audiobook of a Lovecraft novel on Sunday dude.
Make a video about the emerald dream or the emerald nightmare.
Come on Mr. H, just go ahead and give us your fanfic audiobook of the Cthulhu Mythos vs the Hellraiser Universe. i know you've already written it. LOL.
But... how can we enter Dreamlands? How can we control our body in dreams?
Cats of Ulthar next, PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!
CthulhuChow yesss my absolute favorite short-story
If I entered the Dreamlands and I had no real ties here on Earth I would stay. There are some parts of the Dreamlands it is said that are almost on par with Heaven. I would settle down in one of those places.
Yeah if I lived in the Cthulhu Mythos Universe I would definitely try to enter the Dreamlands physically so that I may escape the horrors that plague the earth (I most certainly wouldn’t want to be on earth when the Deep Ones declare war on humanity or when the Stars Align and Cthulhu awakens), atleast in the Dreamlands I would have a very long life and could gain incredible power.
Are there any movies or animations for this?
Mr H I thought Ghouls were able to cross over from the Dream Lands
Is there a movie about this .... i hope so , if not do one please
I might consider staying considering how things are shaping up these days...
I would definitely go if I had the chance, physically even. And there, I would most certainly stay.
The dreamland is a fascinating place.
So before I knew who cthulhu was he appeared in one of my nightmares and I didn't know the name of who he was then the next day I was watching CZcams and it was about top 10 creatures caught on camera and I saw the exact same thing as I did in my dream and today my friend told me about cthulhu and I looked at a picture of cthulhu and he look the same as the creature in my dream so I'm wondering if he can corrupt u somehow or can the dreamland mirror the place u live at????
Damn. Kirby has gone dark.
If I was in the Dreamland I'd recreate the Persian Empire
Where there is reality, there is dream.
I very much like the Ghuls in Dreamland... crossing over to our World.
Well... An Isekai that actually works...
I wanna go! I take the risk getting there physically!
Oh yeah I’d definitely stay. Specially when you take into consideration how boring the real world is.
yes id like to live in the dream land, anything is better then this reality . . .
imagine if comas were connected to the dreamlands
The ultimate free MMO.
hi! in wich stories can I read about the dreamlands??
Looks like something out of Lord of the rings or dungeons and dragon's. Also I would venture into that realm cause why not then if I did end up dying at least I'd have gotten to see what not many people have ever seen. So yolo I'd love to fight creatures that are alot like ones in DnD. I probably end up taking over the south and live in that world attempt to dominate it.
Imagine if Santa monica studios made a Cthulhu based game with the scope of god of war
Kratos vs Cthulhu
YOUR PERFECT AT THIS VOICE OVER THING DON'T YOU READ BOOK'S TO? IF SO HAVE YOU DONE THE CALL OF CTHULUH IF SO YOUR MY HERO
THE ORIGINAL CALL OF CTHULUH NOT THE OTHER ONE'S THAT SOME ONE OTHER THE HP HIM SELF HAVE MADE BUT THAR NOT BAD I HEAR SO I WONT MIND LEASING TO THIM
What happens if you enter the dreamlands physically, can you still be alive in the real world
Antonio Sotoprado most likely not.
It is worth the trip.
Mr. H, have yoU reviewed Antrum?
I wonder what qualifies or disqualifies you from be deemed worthy to pass the two gate guards
yup i would stay hang out with zoogs and enjoy some of that moon wine.
Well, I guess I ain't the only 1 who woke up early. This seems like intresting place. How's the weather there? :) I would enter. Stay? Maybe.
In my dreams I see the stairs but never walked down them
Stop being a coward
I would
Can someone please tell me what is this where is this from when did this book/movie or what ever came out it looks interesting
+Rashad D hp Lovecraft. His world
Rashad D the dreamlands are part of h.p. lovecrafts cthulhu mythos and are more phantastical then his horror storys. The whole mythos was created in the 1920s in america
Rashad D check out the story "The dream quest of unknown Kaddath"
crusadin' all day long ! Just CZcams it
For how long (in our time) can a human enter Dreamlands and still be able to come back????
Yes
Isdeded lol that's not a answer
I thought it was where Kirby is from
I wonder if this was inspired by sleep paralysis.
No but I would like to see this Dreamland
