Anything of Thomas Ligotti’s work. He’s modern, but he’s second only to Lovecraft.

Seconding Clark Ashton Smith.
I've been reading all his Averoigne texts lately, pleasantly surprised.

If you specifically want stuff adjacent to Lovecraft, read his essay Supernatural Horror in Literature. It should give you enough suggestions for at least a few months of reading.
