“And where Nyarlathotep went, rest vanished, for the small hours were rent with the screams of nightmare." Such is the power of the entity known as Nyarlathotep. Interestingly enough, father of modern horror, H.P. Lovecraft first saw the entity that he later named as Nyarlathotep in his nightmares since the age of 10 and cited it as inspiration behind the now infamous entity in Lovecraftian fiction that serves as the main antagonist for the mythos. H. P. Lovecraft developed the mythical character Nyarlathotep. In the Cthulhu Mythos, a shared universe, the figure is a malevolent deity. He first appeared in Lovecraft's prose poem "Nyarlathotep" in 1920, and he was afterwards mentioned in Lovecrafts’and other writers' works. He also featured in the 1936 short story The Haunter of the Dark, and he returned in the 1943 fantasy novella The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath as the major antagonist. He has appeared in many H.P. Lovecraft stories than any other deity, and he is clearly the cruellest and vilest being in the entire mythology.
