Any Lovecraft fans here? [View all]

I know Lovecraft is more horror than fantasy, but this is the closest thing we have to a horror group so I thought I'd ask and see if there were any Lovecraft fans here. I recently bought his complete works from Barnes and Nobles for $20 and I'm working my way through the Cthulhu Mythos.
