About this conversion

H.P. Lovecraft never gave exact meters, but his text points to man-sized servants and a mountain-scale master: fungoid Mi-Go at about 1.50m, slanting Ghouls at about 1.80m, batrachian Deep Ones at about 2.00m and Cthulhu himself at about 100.00m, square in the 30-to-100m scholarly estimate range and Wikipedia's hundreds of meters.

These heights are fan-compiled from textual clues (a mountain walked, miles-high hyperbole, the yacht-bowsprit encounter) via NL Today's size analysis, scifi.SE and Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu RPG, like our Greek converter. 1 Cthulhu = 50.00x a Deep One (100/2), 1 Deep One = 1.18x human, making this converter a handy reference for lore debates, miniature scaling and everyday curiosity.

Units supported: Meters, feet, and Mythos heights (Mi-Go 1.50m, Ghoul 1.80m, Deep One 2.00m, Cthulhu 100.00m).

Source note: Heights are fan-compiled from Lovecraft's text and RPG analyses (no official meters) — see NL Today analysis, scifi.SE and Chaosium CoC.
