FAQ:
Who is H.P. Lovecraft?
Howard Philips Lovercraft was a 1920's horror fiction writer and your all 'round intelligent, shy and socially inept nerd. God luv 'im! He started the notion that there are slimy, multi-tentacled, evil-beyond-human-comprehension aliens that basically regret accidentally starting the human race. Such troublesome creatures, humans are!

RE-INTRODUCTION
"The EOD is so big that the sun will never rise on it,we will always dwell in a true eternal night."Cousin Helen Vaughan
How esoteric are we? Well, if anyone is claiming to be esoteric on the Internet they are not very esoteric at all. If we say we are not the Esoteric Order of Dagon (not to be confused with the Exoteric Order of Dagon, or the Eldritch Order of Dagon) we could be lying and really do posses terrible and arcane inside knowledge, which we have preserved, maintained, and expanded upon by our group effort as a body of Initiates, comprising our Order, these Initiates having become knowledgeable via the Transmission of Occult Sciences whose linage can be traced back to the Deep One Onanes in 10,000 BCE. Unlike so many other cults we profess to hold a secret science which is falsifiable via the eldritch scientific method know as the Methos, given to us by the fish like Seerer/Rishi on the dark beach so long ago.
As the Ecclesiastical Order of Dagon we are united in a very informal way, a community under unholy rule, we don't require solume vows. We are ecclesiastical in the Greek meaning of the word, or Ekkalein (Hebrew Qoheleth) to Call Forth. This Ex-Kalein to call out is derived from our Ecclesiastical Scripture Call of Cthulhu
What is an Initiate in the EOD has a very broad definition indeed, but its simplest meaning, with reference to the EOD, is anyone who has had a direct contact, whether it be waking, or in dream, with the same forces which tormented and inspired our Prophet Ech Pi El, peace be unto him. The Esoteric Order of Dagon as a Secret Society, not unlike the Ton Ton Macoute or Bizango, that is doesn't worship the Loa or god like entities of the Mythos, but whose membership and the energy which abides in that membership is the EOD’s object of worship, and this energy some call the Lovecraftian Psychopomp. Also the Esoteric Order of Dagon is an association of Dark Visionary Artists, Surrealist Poets, Magicians from innumerable magical orders, geologists, xenobiologists, astrophysicists, marine biologists, alien alchemists, Mulas of Dark Sufi Orders, politicians occupying high levels of government, The Illuminati, grade school teachers, janitors,drug addicts of otherworldly substances, Madmen, mentally defiant genius, gutless zealots, perverts with the most obscure passions...all exploring the connection between the visions of H.P.Lovecraft and the actualizing of these visions with techniques Methos 37. Also we coordinate the larger Exo-Lovecraftian Studies by which one investigates vast areas of interest; one can not find a mythology in anytime, place, or culture which doesn't have a big ugly semi divine entity under the earth or in the sea and there is also our parent org "Cults of Cthulhu" which is the binding force between various tribal societies spread out through out the world and can be found everywhere and in the most obscure parts of the globe, comprising mysterious arcane orders, dreadful covens, decadent churches, sinister synagogues, masks which mask unspeakable secrets.We are everywhere and nowhere...Iä!! Nyarlathotep!!!!.
Love your club, btw.

I guess what I'm trying to say is: Does anyone have a link to where I could read his public domain stories?
