Being buried alive in a submarine at the bottom of the sea is the closest thing I can think of to anything that encapsulates cosmic horror

I think living in that submarine for years blissfully ignorant until one day you realize that fate has you in a mate-in-one scenario, so you run around your 2 feet of space horrified would be more cosmic horror-y as I know it.

In a certain sense you are right, but on a more literal level there is little practical difference between that and being put in a hydraulic press. Contrast with prion infection or even just dementia

You still remember Stockton's Titanic submarine ventures?

In hindsight, I'd give critical support to his ass... except for drowning as well a teenage billionaire's son...
