According to Wikipedia




American writers Robert W. Chambers and H.P. Lovecraft borrowed the
term Carcosa for their stories.




I have copies of books that between them claim to be the complete stories and poetry of Lovecraft. I can find no mention of Carcosa in them. Did Lovecraft really incorporate Carcosa into his mythos?

          He did not, at least not in his works meant for publication. (His letters might be another matter.) There is no mention of Carcosa in any of his prose fiction or poetry. His works (including some juvenilia and incomplete works) are all collected online here. It is a simple matter to see that "Carcosa" does not appear anywhere in the collection.



          I have a vague impression of having come across some other writer(s) from Lovecraft's circle (perhaps Clark Ashton Smith) mentioning Carcosa in passing, but I cannot recall any specific instances.

          Lovecraft apparently never mentioned Carcosa.



          A search of this GitHub archive of Lovecraft's works turned up no results for "Carcosa." (To my additional surprise, I wasn't able to find any reference to a "King in Yellow" either!)



          It's possible that this GitHub corpus could be considered incomplete; it doesn't include the stories he contributed to in an editorial or ghostwriterly capacity, and there's always the chance that the compiler missed something. It's hard to prove a negative, but no evidence in the positive is making itself known to me.



          The only explicit link between Lovecraft and An Inhabitant of Carcosa seems to be via The King in Yellow. A list of eldritch entities in The Whisperer in Darkness includes "Hastur" and "the Yellow Sign," both of which show up in The King in Yellow first.
