Lewishape

Lewishape is a fictional term that appears in the writings of author H.P. Lovecraft. It is associated with the entity known as Nyarlathotep, a primordial deity from Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. While not extensively described, Lewishape is understood to be one of the many forms or manifestations that Nyarlathotep can assume. These forms are often grotesque, alien, and imbued with a sense of cosmic horror. The term "Lewishape" itself suggests a distortion or unnatural alteration of form, hinting at the chaotic and malevolent nature of the entity. Within the context of Lovecraft's stories, encountering such a manifestation is typically a prelude to madness or destruction for the unfortunate observer. The exact nature and appearance of Lewishape remain deliberately vague, allowing readers' imaginations to fill in the terrifying details, a common technique employed by Lovecraft to evoke a sense of the unknown and the unfathomable.
