Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft is a comprehensive collection of essays that explore the theory and practice of adapting H.P. Lovecraft's fiction and the Lovecraftian universe. Drawing on recent adaptation theory and broader discussions about media affordances, the book provides an overview of Lovecraft's presence in contemporary media and the significance of contemporary media in shaping our understanding of his legacy. The volume examines a wide range of medial forms, including film, television, comics, podcasts, video games, and more, and brings together an international group of scholars to analyze individual instances of adaptation and the broader concerns of what we can learn about adaptation from the example of H.P. Lovecraft.

While the book is primarily aimed at an academic audience, it will also hold interest for all readers who are interested in Lovecraft today. The essays offer insightful perspectives on the ways in which Lovecraft's works have been adapted and reimagined across different media, and they shed light on the enduring appeal of his horror and cosmic horror themes. The volume also explores the ways in which contemporary media technologies and cultural trends have influenced our construction of Lovecraft and the Lovecraftian universe, and it raises important questions about the role of adaptation in shaping our understanding of literature and popular culture.

Overall, Medial Afterlives of H.P. Lovecraft is a valuable contribution to the study of adaptation and media studies, and it will be of interest to scholars, students, and fans of Lovecraft alike.
