Innistrad versus Lovecraft

New • 21 Sep 2011 • Asked by eronarn • 2 Comments

The Eldrazi were a major nod to Lovecraftian horror conceptually, but within the set they mostly existed as a 'boss' (though there were some exceptions like Ancient Stirrings and See Beyond). Will Innistrad draw on the more subtle side of HPL?

Innistrad purposefully tried to stay away from Lovecraft because of its influence on the Eldrazi. It’s hard to stay completely away in a horror setting but we purposefully tried.
