Ever read a Chick Tract?  Well, this author was inspired enough by them to try one himself, with slightly different results:

It's not as good as the other Cthulhu Chick Tract parody. I think it sends the wrong message - killing your family and committing suicide is not the answer. You can't "cheat" the Old Ones, they'll bring you back to life and torment you anyways I bet. The best course of action is to worship and serve them in the hopes that they will decide to eat you first to spare you the horrors that others will go through before being eaten.

You know, I've never read anything by H. P. Lovecraft, and every time I see something like this, it reinforces why I don't want to.

Neither have I, but that doesn't mean these Chick tract parodies aren't funny to me. They are so much like the real thing, just with different content.
