Hiya....I'm new to the board but my sister (noelie) posts here quite a bit so i figured it was high time i let my voice be heard
I even came armed with a question hehe...
Recently i picked up a book of short stories by Lovecraft that contained a story called "Pickman's Model". It's about a reclusive painter who had a knack for painting ghoulish and morbid creatures. Long story short it turned out he had a hole in his basement that lead to another world and he was painting things he saw there.
It dawned on me while i was reading that it was very close to what happens in Conspiracies and i was just wondering if this story was part of the inspiration or if it was just a coincidence.
