I wonder if HPhack is a university teacher...he certainly has been having the nighmares...

I saw the trailer for this months ago. It filled me with dread... However being a Lovecraft Fan, I'll take whatever I can get.

I had a quick look at the cthulhuthemovie site. From the page source the production company is Arkham NW Productions. Searching on that gives:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0478126/combined, so it's a different movie.

Quote:

A Seattle history professor, drawn back to his estranged family on the Oregon coast to execute his late mother's estate, is reaquainted with his best friend from childhood, with whom he has a long-awaited tryst. Caught in an accelerating series of events, he discovers aspects of his father's New Age cult which take on a dangerous and apocalyptic significance.

Doesn't sound like it fits - but it's interesting that there are so many Cthulhu based releases this year.

Oh, and hi btw - my first visit

I don't know if anyone has spotted these yet, but I got here via a banner advert: http://worsethanfailure.com/Default.aspx (the 'Sponsored by' half way down on the right hand side).
There are several links from the advert to google searches, the 'missed connection' one brings up a lot of the craigslist links.

AH!

I know this may be a little late, but I'm a huge fan of H. P. Lovecraft, and own most of the books. I just wanted to let you know that some of the torn pages (such as The Outsider and a few others) come from the book: The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Stories.

I own this book, and the page numbers match exactly to the ones you all have been posting.

I hope this helps, and I'm sorry if this has already been mentioned.

Edit - Holy crow that was a long link! TinyURL is your friend! Edited for link length - C

Well I don't know if this really answers the question, but earlier today in chat this information was found:

And Themagician posted scans from his package in the SentryOutpost Wiki

Looks like we have all 13 i-ching phrases now.
Still don't know Themagicians craigslist city. Hoping to get more scans from Themagician.

Interesting timing. Cthulhu is coming. Matches the watercolor idea of the monster showing up.
