Hastur, the Unspeakable
Hastur the Unspeakable
I found myself faced by names and terms that I had heard elsewhere in the most hideous of connections—Yuggoth, Great Cthulhu, Tsathoggua, Yog-Sothoth, R'lyeh, Nyarlathotep, Azathoth, Hastur, Yian, Leng, the Lake of Hali, Bethmoora, the Yellow Sign, L'mur-Kathulos, Bran and the Magnum Innominandum—and was drawn back through nameless aeons and inconceivable dimensions to worlds of elder, outer entity at which the crazed author of the Necronomicon had only guessed in the vaguest way.... There is a whole secret cult of evil men (a man of your mystical erudition will understand me when I link them with Hastur and the Yellow Sign) devoted to the purpose of tracking them down and injuring them on behalf of the monstrous powers from other dimensions.Hastur the Unspeakable is a Cthulhu mythos deity. Hastur is defined as a great old one, the spawn of Yog-Sothoth, and the half-brother of the star priest Cthulhu, and in some circles beleived to be the half-brother to the Nameless Mist. Hastur is a one of the many great old ones who can take on several different and vastly distinct avatars with differing though usually connecting plots. His main apsect is that of an amorphus, vast, and vaguely octopoidal.
[...] after stumbling queerly upon the hellish and forbidden book of horrors the two learn, among other hideous things which no sane mortal should know, that this talisman is indeed the nameless Yellow Sign handed down from the accursed cult of Hastur—from primordial Carcosa, whereof the volume treats... ~ HPL , "Supernatural Horror in Literature", discussing "The Yellow Sign"
