I just got this bad boy and was wondering which ones I should be prepared for. This is my first experience with Lovecraft.

Funnily enough, I do really like the story this meme is about: The Rats in the Walls.

It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

People aren't going to say it because they want to look cool and say somethig obscure or bring up his cat's name but it's really The Shadow over Innsmouth
.

There's a reason why everyone considers it his best work, because it is.

The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath

The Alchemist also has a hilarious twist.

Look at this guy trying to look cool by not picking The Call of Cthulu
Cthulu is a pop culture icon but no one (hyperbole) thinks The Call of Cthulu is better than Shadow over Innsmouth

It's like saying The Silver Chair is more popular than The Lion , The Witch and The Wardrobe because everyone loves Puddleglum

It's just not

It's a hard choice but I think Mountains of Madness is my overall favorite. Shadow Over Innsmouth is really good though.

I watched that. God damn it was dark.

Also read the one where the cats all disappear. That was a good one too!

Pickman's Model is my favorite. It's a pretty quick read, but sets the atmosphere so brilliantly. Definitely recommend it.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth is the best complete story.

At the Mountains of Madness is great, too, though it's VERY dry in places.

Dagon, The Music of Erich Zann, and The Shadow Out of Time also have really great moments.

I'll chime in on At the Mountains of Madness, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, The Color out of Space, and The Shadow Out of Time.
But I would like to recommend The Whisperer in the Darkness too.
