Ok, weird question:
Wilbur Whately looks like a weird, Lovecraftian parody of a classical satyr, and is arguably the child of a God.
Was Lovcraft intentionally implying that satyrs were real, just not what we thought they were?

(`_´)ゞ - Reading H.P love craft because even though he was a horrible person he helped create modern day science fiction and horror as well as popularizing short stories/literary magazines
╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ - Reading HP lovecraft because of Pickman’s gallery/ Dunwich borers and to write better about fallout’s horror element, which often features lovecraftian elements of mystery and tragedy.

The thing about the Dunwich Horror is that it's actually scarier if you read it from the Whateleys' perspective because like. You have this teenager who's been ostracized from his community and is constantly stalked and harassed by his neighbors, needing to care for his giant spaghetti monster brother on his own while keeping it a secret from the rest of the town and then he tries to get the magic book that he needs from the library and the bitchass college professor bans him not just from that library but from every other library in the country and then proceeds to stalk him for information on his eldritch horror parents. Then in desperation he breaks into the college library to steal the book and gets brutally killed by the guard dog and the college professors get access to all of his personal artifacts. Meanwhile the afforementioned spaghetti monster breaks out of the house and starts lashing out attacking the townspeople because he's hungry and probably scared, so the college professors go out to hunt him down and kill him, and he gets zapped out of existence while begging for his eldritch god father to save him. And like the twins are fifteen years old at that point. Idk the story just really changes with the context that the Whateleys are children who get violently killed and then dehumanized by everyone else
