Talk:Deep One

Requested move
Deep One (Cthulhu mythos) → Deep One – Move, since there are only two meanings for Deep One, and since the Deep One (X-COM race) article acknowledges in the intro that it is based on the Cthulhu mythos creatures. (Following the move, a hatnote could be placed at the top of the Deep One article directing users to the Deep One (X-COM race) article as the alternate meaning.) -,-~ R 'lyeh R isin g  ~-,- 08:59, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Note. A history merge would be required; note the following visual aid:
 * Noted that a history merge was effected. Also noted that Deep One is now a disambiguation page, so a move there would replace it (though as I've indicated, that should not be a problem). -,-~ R 'lyeh R isin g  ~-,- 11:22, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

"The sea-dwelling creatures resurfaced in the works of other authors." Pun intended? --81.233.196.49 (talk) 21:05, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Cthulhu worshipping
I've always had the idea Deep Ones worshipped Cthulhu, which is also stated in this article. However, I haven't found any actual Lovecraft source to prove it; does anyone here know some? -Monstrim (talk) 20:40, 15 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Shadow Over Innsmouth says it's so, right? "For the present they would rest; but some day, if they remembered, they would rise again for the tribute Great Cthulhu craved". --81.233.196.49 (talk) 21:33, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Deep Ones in popular culture?
Would a section mentioning famous examples of creatures inspired to the Deep Ones be of any interest? Off the top of my head, we have the Gill-man, Abe Sapien, the creature from The Shape of Water, the creature from Sweetheart. Plus the actual The Shadow over Innsmouth film adaptations or direct references. --Kumagoro-42 (talk) 10:41, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
