The foul and hideous Laddering Horror from the darkest pages of the Necrotelicomnicon.

No tights or stockings remain intact in the presence of this God. Anguished cries such as But I only bought this pair yesterday! orI don't believe it! That's the third pair this week! or That was my last pair! Now what do I wear to this job interview/promotion board/big date? are as prayers to the God.

The Laddering Horror is thought to be an escapee from the Dungeon Dimensions who is seeking God-like status in the world.

Annotation

Nylonathatep is clearly inspired by HP Lovecraft's Nyarlathotep.
