Topic Nominated Ligottian, Lovecraftian and cosmic horror in unexpected places

I don't know if a thread like this already exists. Anyway, I have a number of ideas for things that could be included here. I'll start with this, though, which comes from the poem 'The Convergence of the Twain' by Thomas Hardy, a poem about the sinking of the Titanic:

Over the mirrors meant
To glass the opulent
The sea-worm crawls - grotesque, slimed, dumb, indifferent.

Absolutely candid, carefree, but straightforward speech becomes possible for the first time when one speaks of the highest." - Friedrich Schlegel
