Line 87:
** An unusual example is that Lovecraft himself became a figure in his own mythos and was written into several stories by other authors, either as an avatar or even more curiously as himself. In addition to this, the first Lovecraft short story collection ''The Outsider and Others'', put together posthumously, was inserted into the mythos as one of the arcane tomes frequently referenced in the stories of other authors.
** [[Robert Bloch]] killed off a character based on Lovecraft in "The Shambler from the Stars"; in response, Lovecraft killed off a character based on Bloch in "The Haunter of the Dark".
** Frank Belknap Long had another character based off Lovecraft in "The Space-Eaters".
** The main character of Fritz Leiber's "Terror from the Depths" shares many similarities to [[Clark Ashton Smith]].
