What do you guys think of Lovecraft's work? I like most of it, and at times the language he uses is a tad bit confusing, but overall he manages to tell some good stories with pretty vivid imagery. What say you?

Picture is obviously unrelated, I had nothing related to the man himself.

I've never been a fan of his prose, but yes his stories are exceptional.

Phillip K Dick of horror. Adequate writer with zero interest in characters and a wealth of great concepts.

Pretty good with one or two easily overlooked flaws here and there.
I am particularly fond of his Dreamlands stories. (and other writers who did stuff like that back then)
