Lovecraft found non-Euclidean geometry to be used by the Old Ones in their peculiar architecture that embodies other dimensions therein. In effect literal versions of Escher’s drawings. Like the slimy green pile of Cthulhu’s city for one.“…He said that the geometry of the dream-place he saw was abnormal, non-Euclidean, and loathsomely redolent of spheres and dimensions apart from ours…like a great barn-door; and they all felt that it was a door because of the ornate lintel, threshold, and jambs around it, though they could not decide whether it lay flat like a trap-door or slantwise like an outside cellar-door…he was swallowed up by an angle of masonry which shouldn’t have been there; an angle which was acute, but behaved as if it were obtuse…” H.P.L. “Call of Cthulhu” (1926)
Another example of the weirdness the builders have put into the Escher building Horace works in. Bizarre transmogrifying multi-dimensional structure found all over the universe made by the same Yong-Thulhu Co. of Leng. And apparently in the city that Horace spends his time in earning a paycheck. (Any city we know?)
Yong-Thulhu Co. of Leng goes back almost as far as when CHULA-VARUNA arriving on Terra. The ancient Kutun-KUTÙLLÛ and their lineage to the denizens of YIAN-HO in the Dreamlands and yet is as real as death. They employ Thu-Thu Mongs that resemble Cthulhu but on a smaller scale and only 2-4 eyes not 6. A servitor sub species construct has just human level intelligence and are loyal and can talk an have great strength and loyalty.

Wise move, Horace. Like the old guy on Ghostbusters said when they asked if he was going up: “I’ll take the next one.”
