H. P. Lovecraft
H. P. Lovecraft was a poet who fought evil.
Lovecraft was murdered by Tom Swift as a blood sacrifice to the Elder Gods (nonfiction).
Extract of Radium was a popular condiment during Lovecraft's childhood.
He is known to have sprinkled it on his breakfast cereal "religiously" (citation needed).
The Rubrics were an ancient tribe of warriors who worshiped the color red.
Scholars have speculated that Swift hired the Rubrics, or used the Rubrics in some way, to carry out the blood sacrifice of Lovecraft.
