Sutter Cane
Background
Sutter Cane is a horror author for Arcane Publishing in New York City.
During the events of In the Mouth of Madness (1994) played by Jurgen Prochnow
At a mental hospital, Sutter Cane tells John Trent, it isn't the end yet.
In the past, a group of vehicle drive up to the church and Simon and a group of men run over to the church and Simon yells for Sutter Cane to release Simon's Son (Johnny). The door to the church opens and Simon's Son (Johnny) stares at Simon, before the doors suddenly close and open again. They open again and instead of Simon's Son (Johnny) standing at the doors, Sutter Cane is standing there. A group of doberman pincers then appear and attack Simon and the other men. Later, Linda goes inside of the church and finds Sutter Cane typing on a typewriter. He tells her that the Great Old Ones told him what to write and gave him the power to make it real. He then forces her to read his book and she starts to bleed from her eyes. They kiss and a creature growing from his head and back growls.
John wakes up in a church confessional and Sutter Cane tells him his books reach more people than religious texts. He tells John that when people fail to be able to tell the difference between reality and fiction, then the Great Old Ones will come back. Sutter Cane finishes typing up the manuscript and hands it to John and tells him that he will be the one to deliver it to the world. He tells John that the Axe Maniac had read about John's part in the book and tried to stop him. A portal opens up and Sutter Cane rips himself to pieces like a book. During his trip back, John has a nightmare where he sees Sutter Cane again and screams in fright.
