I recommend leaving this article at Innsmouth (as opposed to Innsmouth, Massachusetts) to prevent confusion which might result from a reader believing this to be a real city. -- Netoholic @ 18:18, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Map of Innsmouth

It's generally believed that "Shadow over Innsmouth" is in the public domain, but even if it weren't, the map from Cthulhu Mythos: A Guide would likely qualify as fair use--it's a map created by the website's owner based on details provided in the story. The "Tourist's Guide" is mainly a discussion of how the map was created, which is why I originally bundled them together as one link. Nareek 17:05, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

That map lists streets and places rather well but is a rather poor land map. At any rate, there is a better map which follows the land layout better, linked at [1]. This map matches a sea chart map of Innsmouth found in the Call of Cthulhu video game(for all I know the game developers used this very map as reference). This is a very large map. I'm gonna add it in the external links section for reference.
