  Hi there,

  For the most part, changing your theme is a lot like changing the clothing on a mannequin. Your content (pages, blog posts, uploaded media) don’t go anywhere or change that much… they just assume the style of the new theme

  Or, to think of it another way, when you change to a new theme, the demo content is not always loaded automatically, but instead the content you had (prior to the switch) is shown.

  To clarify, you are trying to delete all content on your blog now, and replace it with the demo content you see here? https://wordpress.com/theme/lovecraft/

  We’re happy to check on our end and confirm that we have demo content we can load for you. Thanks for confirming.
