For those who read of evil and search for its form in their minds call forth evil, and so may Y'golonac return to walk among men…
~ A passage from Cold Print on Y'golonac.

Y'golonac, also known as The Defiler or the God of Depravity and Perversion, is a creature recurrent in the Cthulhu Mythos.

He was created by Ramsey Campbell, first appearing in the short story "Cold Print". This foul living presence happens to be one of the Great Old Ones.

What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]

  • To escape the brick wall in his area and free himself from his entrapment and attack and eliminate everything in his pass, he manipulated a lot of people and created a cult enlisting people who read forbidden literature. This culminates in Y'golonac manipulating his victim into reading a chapter of The Revelation of Gla'aki which houses his name. Upon being summoned, Y'golonac would ask the summoner to become his "priest." If not, he would devour them. Y'golonac had done this so many countless times, he relishes in the victims that had succumbed to his hunger, oftentimes children.
  • In the short story "Cold Print", Y'golonac takes over a bookstore after he gruesomely murdered the owner and took his skin. Meeting Mr. Strutt, Y'golonac tries to coerce the protagonist of the short story into becoming his priest. Understandably horrified by the notion, Mr. Strutt refuses, and he becomes one of Y'golonac's several victims.
