Cthulhoid (v. 1.0.2) Разработано handtwerk |
Cthulhoid wants to be your mobile companion for all things related to the Cthulhu Mythos and horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. It contains the complete works of H.P. Lovecraft, including stories, poetry and essays, a directory of public domain H.P. Lovecraft audiobooks. a categorized index of Wikipedia pages related to the Cthulhu mythos and a detailed timeline of the Cthulhu Mythos. The UI is optimized for phones.
Unless your device has pre-installed software for this, you will need to install an e-reader app for viewing the eBooks and an audio player to listen to audiobooks.
Important: if you are having problems opening the eBooks, this is very likely because your eReader software has trouble opening the EPUB files (which are contained within the app and copied to the SD card to make them available to other software), for whatever reasons. If this keeps happening, please try a different eReader software (such as the free Aldiko reader) and check in your system settings which app is configured for opening EPUB eBooks by default.
Also please email me cthulhoid@handtwerk.de if you're having any problems using the app.
This app needs permissions to access the internet in order to download the audio recordings and write access to external storage (SD card) to export resources to make them available to other (viewer) apps. Cthulhoid doesn't use ads and doesn't record or transmit any usage or user data.
Content and user interface of this app are english only! Please don't give me a hard time because the stories are in english, I'm not a translator and translated versions are usually not in the public domain.

[2013-08-20] A Google User: Awesome, a must for Lovecraft fans This is a great app. It has all that I could want out of it and more. Works flawlessly with my reader, simple to use and navigate and haven't spotted a single problem so far. |
|
[2013-08-19] A Google User: Love it Great app! |
|
[2013-07-17] A Google User: Best Cthulhu Mythos app. Period. Comprehensive. Easy to navigate. Nice layout and organization. You need no other app for the works of Lovecraft. |
|
[2013-07-11] A Google User: Absolutely amazing I will finally get around to reading HPL's full works. |
|
[2013-06-09] A Google User: A Great Lovecraft Resource Awesome app. Would like a means to filter stories chronologically by when they were written, and by the Arkham/Dream cycles. |
|
[2013-04-26] A Google User: Happy camper Excellent app!!! I'm totally smitten. Kudos to the developer/s. Seamless navigation, works great with my reader too :) *hoorah!!!* |
|
[2013-04-20] A Google User: Fantastic Great app, looks good and does what it should |
|
[2013-04-15] A Google User: awesome |
|
[2013-04-13] A Google User: Deadicated But Flawed Audio files downloaded directly from this app will only play while the app is open. And finding those files on your SD card can be problematic-their file names having been changed into seemingly random alphanumeric strings. There is a workaround. Select website instead of download to get files you can treat normally. Cthulhu, Cthulhu, Cthulhu thrice I speak your name and summon thee. |
|
[2013-04-12] A Google User: Thanks! Excellent idea and even better app. |
|
[2013-04-05] A Google User: Great Resource Love the Cthulu mythos and Lovecraft's literature and life story. The interface could use some work, but otherwise I'm thoroughly enjoying this app. |
|
[2013-03-29] A Google User: Pretty good Where does the app downloads ebooks? |
|
[2013-03-28] A Google User: Good but needs a few fixes Audio link to Call Of Cthulu doesn't work. No Re- animator either. |
|
[2013-03-27] A Google User: Missing the reanimator other than that its pretty good |
|
[2013-03-18] A Google User: Excellent Never thought there could be such an amazing resource/ebook/ app |
|
[2013-03-14] A Google User: Great App HAve to Say great App has audio book links to streams and mp3 downloads. Also has links to ebook downloads. |
|
[2013-03-10] A Google User: Amazing Totally awesome |
|
[2013-03-01] A Google User: Perfect. Next to android messenger, this is my most used app. |
|
[2013-01-20] A Google User: How do I put this... On one hand, thank you for this app. On the other hand, sleep doesn't come easy now. Suppose that's Lovecraft's gift. |
|
[2013-01-18] A Google User: Rather amazing I must said that I truly love the app. It is certainly useful when I wish to listen to one of Lovecraft's amazing stories on my way home from school. But, would I he correct in assuming that the audio recordings are saved to internal memory? In my opinion this is an unwanted limitation. It would be awesome to be able to save to SD. |
|
[2013-01-11] A Google User: Great Great collection |
|
[2013-01-09] A Google User: Very fun app!!! This app is a real must have for ANY HP Lovecraft fan. One serious issue though. When loading text on Aldiko's shelf it fails to load. The content is there the book won't open. Probably a format or a permission issue I suppose. |
|
[2012-12-26] A Google User: What I wanted Exactly what I was looking for and gives me access to The Mythos on the go. Thanks for the great work. |
|
[2012-12-15] A Google User: Can't open writings Every time i try to open up any of the writings it tells me i don't have an e-reader installed, even though i actually have several. Very frustrating as i bet this could be a great app. |
|
[2012-10-22] A Google User: Fantastic A truly fantastic app. Contains all of Lovecrafts works plus access to audio versions, a comprehensive Wikipedia section on everything Lovecraft, AND an awesome map. Top notch work and all for free. Worth it. |
|
[2012-09-14] A Google User: Essential Owning a HTC I had to install Moon reader + to read the texts but a minor chore compared to the rewarding depth of Lovecraft that awaits. |
|
[2012-09-03] A Google User: I love this app! This app is simple and easy to use, and best of all, FREE! |
|
[2012-08-29] A Google User: LIke but have to delete I like it, but since I can't store it on my SD card ( it won't let me move it) I am going to have to delete it from the phone due to memory available. |
|
[2012-08-26] A Google User: Brilliant! An absolutely fantastic app! So simple, just does what it says. A huge collection of Lovecraft's works. Initially I did have problems with the poetry not working at all, so I tested it through a number of reading apps and found Moon Reader solves the issue, and displays it perfectly! 5 stars, wish there were more like this for my other favourite authors! |
|
[2012-07-13] A Google User: Fantastic It would be cool if the next update included some letters though Also missing some poems and it would be nice to have a category of his ghost writing. |
|
[2012-07-09] A Google User: Flaky The poetry doesn't load up correctly in any reader. Could have been a really nice app. |

[2012-03-26] A Google User: Just perfect Great idea, perfectly executed. Its great to have everything Lovecraft in one place. Well done :) |
|
[2012-03-23] A Google User: Good, couple of issues On my HTC, if you try to open a book with the basic Reader app then you just get a notification saying "Import books" which you can't get rid of,even by restarting the phone. Selecting eg Moon reader opens the book instantly. Also, spelling is ropey, at least on my randomly opened book. Otherwise fine. |
|
[2012-03-06] A Google User: Great App There are a lot of Lovecraft's stories here as well as a lot of other cool information. |
