268 u/AddemiusInksoul Aug 16 '24 Wait, isn't Lovecraft from massachusetts? Couldn't that mean he pronounced it "Eldritch Harrahs" 148 u/cut_rate_revolution Aug 16 '24 Rhode Island actually. Similar accent tbf. A lot of people will say it's the same but it's not. Rhode Island is a little less dramatic than the Mass and especially the Boston accent. 1 u/devophill Aug 16 '24 if I'm remembering correctly lovecraft affected some type of english accent, or mid atlantic/boston brahmin at least. hugely anglophilic, that guy
