Happy Birthday, Wilbur Whateley!

Forget that poor abused groundhog -- it's time for Lovecraftians to celebrate the accursed (not to mention eldritch, & possibly squamous) natal day of Wilbur Whateley.  Born in the township of Dunwich on this date in 1913, he overcame his humble earthly origins  & single parent upbringing to do his daddy proud . . . to the profound regret of the surrounding community.

H.P. Lovecraft's "The Dunwich Horror" first appeared in the classic magazine Weird Tales in April, 1929.
