The King in Yellow. In Lost Carcosa. Do you know of them?

Lovcraftian lore

predates Lovecraft actually. the origin is actually a book of short stories written by Robert W Chambers, published in 1895. Lovecraft read, loved and was greatly inspired by the book and it's titular in-story play 'The King in Yellow' and incorporated bits and pieces (including the aforementioned play) into the Cthulho mythos.

This is very interesting. I have not seen the Yello Sign. But since I'm interested, I'm going to do some research on this.

Yup, that's the reference! The conclusion to the story was amazing, and I don't think anyone has ever actually won Call of Cthulhu.
