Nikola Tesla (Nyarlathotep)
Many feel that the archtype of
Nyarlathotep was Tesla.
The fact that Lovecraft refers
to him as a bit of a showman,
and he either saw Tesla in
person, or heard or read a
firsthand report.

On Coast to Coast AM (21 Nov 2008)
Ian Punnett interviewed a modern
expert on Tesla. He's said to
have worked with the Army Air
Force to invent a death ray
and other things:

During the middle two hours,
Emmy-Award winning television
producer and author Tim Swartz
discussed the life, work, and '
lost journals' of inventor
Nikola Tesla. Swartz said
he first learned about Tesla
while on assignment at
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base
in Ohio. A press liaison there
told him the Air Force had been
involved in research and
development on various things
from "that mad scientist,
Tesla." Through FOIA docs
Swartz discovered the U.S.
government had been using
notes confiscated from Tesla
to build what the inventor
referred to as a 'teleforce
weapon' or death ray.
Swartz spoke about Tesla's
experiment in Colorado
Springs, Colorado, where
he reportedly received non-
terrestrial radio transmissions.
He theorized that Tesla may
have been picking up EVPs
(Electronic Voice Phenomena),
some of which spoke verbally
about global warming,
Swartz noted. Swartz also
touched on HAARP, which he
said was based on Tesla's
research into the wireless
transmission of energy, as
well as Tesla's concept of
rotating electromagnetic fields,
which he suggested may have
resulted in the infamous
Philadelphia Experiment and
could one day lead to invisibility.

I'm constantly amazed at how
"plugged-in" Lovecraft was
just by reading the newspapers
and corresponding with his
eclectic friends. It's really
unlikely that Lovecraft had any
influence on this report, so that
we have two independent
trajectories of Tesla's
eccentricity.

...that he had heard messages
from places not on this planet.
Into the lands of civilisation
came Nyarlathotep, swarthy,
slender, and sinister, always
buying strange instruments of
glass and metal and combining
them into instruments yet
stranger. He spoke much of
the sciences of electricity
and psychology and gave
exhibitions of power which
sent his spectators away
speechless, yet which
swelled his fame to
exceeding magnitude.

...
I remember when Nyarlathotep
came to my city the great,
the old, the terrible city of
unnumbered crimes. My friend
had told me of him, and of
the impelling fascination
and allurement of his
revelations, and I burned with
eagerness to explore his
uttermost mysteries. My friend
said they were horrible and
impressive beyond my most
fevered imaginings; and what
was thrown on a screen in the
darkened room prophesied things
none but Nyarlathotep dared
prophesy, and in the sputter
of his sparks there was taken
from men that which had never
been taken before yet which
showed only in the eyes.
And I heard it hinted abroad
that those who knew Nyarlathotep
looked on sights which others
saw not.

Imagine if those two met nowadays... look out world hehe

Lovecraft used to do ghost writing for one of Tesla's assistants, Its quite possible he also knew Nikki, perhaps even in secret
