Every Friday I will be posting here an excerpt from my book, the Horror Crossover Encyclopedia. These excerpts will be entries from the book featuring some of my favorite series, often series you might not expect to find in a book about horror crossovers.
THE ILLUMINATUS! TRILOGY (NOVELS BY ROBERT SHEA AND ROBERT ANTON WILSON)
Release Date: 1975 (Contemporary Setting)
Series: The Illuminatus! Trilogy
Horror Crosses: Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos
Non-Horror Crosses: Beatles; Conan the Barbarian; Kull; Lord of the Rings
Notes: The trilogy is loaded with ties to Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos. The main character travels in a Yellow Submarine. The history of the Illuminati includes Conan, Kull, Frodo, and Sauron.
