The King in Yellow

Zelda Flanagan ✭

May 22 in Creature Making Contest 2025

The King in Yellow first appeared in 1895, as a collection of short stories by Robert Chambers. It was later adopted by Lovecraft and in recent years has become a main character of the popular audio drama Malevolent. The King is an eldritch god that inspires madness and in my depiction, is holding up a fabled Pallid Mask to distort his identity. You can see the mask in action here.
