Lovecraft Mythos - Cosmic Horror
724 readers

H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos is a shared universe far larger and more terrifying than that of humanity, where ancient, malevolent beings known as the Great Old Ones slumber in the depths of space or time. After Lovecraft's death, the Mythos has been expanded and developed by many authors, including August Derleth, Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard. These and many other authors have helped to flesh out the Mythos into a rich and complex Dark Universe.

There are many nice works, if i should pick a couple:
Robert W. Chambers book - The King In Yellow
Robert Bloch book- The Opener of the Way
Fritz Leiberโs - The Terror From the Depths
Settler's Wall by Robert Lowndes (a very nice short story)
Neil Gaiman story - A Study in Emerald
I suggest you to check the various anthologies i've posted, you can download most of them from the links.
All fantastic suggestions, thanks for sharing! Some of these I know and love but a few are new to me so Im definitely putting them on the reading list.
