The Esoteric Order of Dagon (Australia)

(Did you mean an American APA?)

The Australian Esoteric Order of Dagon was a Canberra-based horror club started by David Tansey in December 1988. Dagon is a Lovecraft reference.

The club's first newsletter was produced in January 1989. After Tansey announced in 1990 that he was going to have to abandon publication, Chris A. Masters approached him with a proposal to take over its running. Under his editorship, the name of the zine was changed to EOD and continued for a further 9 issues (late 1990–93).

This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc. When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can!
