It was once possible to find R’lyth, the home and resting place of Cthulhu, on Google Maps and on Google Earth. The video at the end of this post acts as evidence. Today it’s not possible to find R’lyeh on either of those two properties.
Aww, shucks, Google. I hope you had good reason for removing it – like lawyers threatening to sue after explorers attempt to follow Google Maps directions.
The good news for geeks is that there are some geekworthy locations that Google Maps can’t so easily get rid of. Here’s a sample below.
Aragorn, Frodo, Leoglas, Galadriel and others
At Geldrop, the Netherlands
Monster
The Netherlands
Gandalf Crescent
New Zealand
Hogwarts Circle
CA, USA
Cylon
New Richmond, USA
Frankenstein
Germany
Force
Italy
Yoda Lake
Sir Lanka
Jedi Street
North Charleston, USA
Sith Street
South Africa
Thor
Peru
Batman (including Batman Airport)
Turkey
The good thing about Batman having an airport is that we can find photographs like this one.
R’lyeh
Evidence that R’lyth (along with the bloop location) was once on Google Earth
