Howard Lovecraft & the Frozen Kingdom (2016)

In the chilling shadows of the Butler Sanitarium, young Howard Lovecraft embarks on a surreal journey that threads the needle between reality and an ice-bound realm of nightmares. His father, Winfield Lovecraft, a patient teetering on the brink of madness, bequeaths him a seemingly innocuous paper star and a cryptic warning about a book he should have never brought into being. Propelled by a blend of youthful curiosity and trepidation, Howard defies his father's plea, plunging headlong into the chilling annals of the forbidden tome. The book, an unholy fusion of fairytales and nightmares, speaks of a kingdom known as R'yleh. Unable to resist the allure of its cryptic verses, Howard unwittingly reads aloud a series of strange words, tearing a rift in the universe's fabric and casting himself into a frozen world that is as terrifying as it is mesmerizing. In this alien landscape, Howard encounters a creature from the deep, Thu Thu Hmong, who oscillates between predator and savior after Howard saves his life. The boy, unable to pronounce his new companion's name, affectionately dubs him Spot. Together, they traverse the icy expanse of R'yleh, meeting an assortment of local children – Felch, Davik, Tw'i, and Nes, who provide Howard with insights and knowledge necessary for his survival in this chilling kingdom. Their journey leads them to the foreboding Frozen Castle where they meet Algid Bunk, an Earl under the reign of King Alzhared. Guided by the mysterious Algid, Howard and Spot delve deeper into R'yleh's dark secrets, embarking on a chilling adventure filled with horrifying creatures. Their exploration becomes a quest for survival as they strive to find a way for Howard to return to his own world, to the warmth of his family, and away from the cold grip of the Frozen Kingdom.
