“Let it be known that The Old Ones exist and they have always existed. They are the unseen currents that flow beneath the surface of all things preparing for the moment when the stars align to herald their return.”

The Tome of the Old ones

The Temple of the Old Ones is an occult religious organisation inspired by the writings of H.P. Lovecraft
and the philosophy of Cosmicism. 

At the heart of the Temple’s beliefs lies Cosmicism, a philosophy introduced by Lovecraft that highlights humanity’s insignificance within a vast and indifferent universe. While Lovecraft’s perspective may seem bleak, the Temple transforms this understanding into a catalyst for growth and self-improvement through the process we call Ascension.

For us, the Great Old Ones are not merely fictional characters—they are cosmic entities that reveal the truths of existence to those brave enough to seek them. Through our meditations and rituals, we explore the true nature of the universe, embracing its indifference and drawing strength from its mysteries.

While some aspects of our teachings are openly shared, joining the Miskatonic University and progressing through our initiatory system is the only official way to join the Temple. Membership of the Temple is entirely free and open to anyone, however, this is a process that demands dedication, perseverance, and the ability to integrate harmoniously into our community. 

We honour the universe’s vast indifference and we value the diverse perspectives of our members. Our community is a haven for all, regardless of belief – Atheists, Theists, and everyone in between.
