what Aleph said, there are also numerous writers who've continued the Cthulhu mythos, and given form and shape to several more of the Great Old Ones, after reading some Lovecraft you'll understand jokes like "I don't get it, all this piece of paper says is Hastur, hastur, hastur, hastur..."
in fact in the original Deities and Demigods (1st and 2nd printing) the great old ones are included, which isn't all that great since the AD&D rules for insanity had always been rather shaky until the Ravenloft seting came out.
Personally, I do like his writing style, it just takes some getting used to (atmosphere is everything, and Poe was one of his mentors)
