This is the Annual Lovecraft Festval, celebrating the 128th birthday of HP Lovecraft.  The SL Destination guide states: "Join the festivities at the 7th annual Lovecraft Festival of Second Life, held August 17-26 in celebration of Mr. H.P. Lovecraft's 128th birthday. Featuring dozens of stores of merchants from all across Second Life and a full schedule of entertainment and activities for all including an adventure/quest that starts its unsettling trail at the notorious Arkham Sanatorium. More info at lovefest.wordpress.com."

I love to visit this annual SL event mostly because I love the quirkiness of H. P. Lovecraft and the organizers, (specifically, Arikthered, Arik Metzger) always do a great job of running this event.  Maybe quirkiness is not the right word, maybe I mean, creepy? or odd? or just plain interesting.  Plus, who doesn't love a good cthulhu?  There is some great and often unique shopping.  There are a lot of cool events so check out the schedule on their web site.  I snapped a pic that was on a board regarding today's and tomorrow's events as an example.  Guerilla Burlesque will even be performing Aug.25th at 7pm so you know it's a great event and they will put on a wild show I'm sure everyone will love. Elysium will perform Aug 21st at 7pm, and Whymsee had a dance along show this evening. You will prob see a lot of cool looking avs there too.. enjoy.

Here is a bit of info. about their Arkham Sanatorium
"With LoveFest 2018's Story Quest (Hunt) we are treading along "the Path of Madness" this year...
    Lovecraft Festival is thrilled to take on this new
    and extremely intriguing theme - inviting our
    guests to visit the notorious Arkham Sanatorium
    in the spirit of HP Lovecraft... "

This event will intrigue explorers, photographers, shoppers, event goers who like music and readings, well I'd think just about anyone, so be sure to check it out. Don't forget to click around, and don't be afraid to sit on pose spots.. I mean.. if you like a good tentacle, creepy crawly, or whatever : ). This event culminates with a closing gala Lovecraft masquerade Aug. 25th from 8-11pm SLT.

After you've visited the Lovefest, be sure to check out Innsmouth in SL here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Innsmouth/44/172/47.  It's an amazing Lovecraft inspire sim in SL. And now for a few pics...
