If you were drawn to the chilling, otherworldly presence of Lovecraftian monstrosities in Lovecraft’s Monsters, you'll find The Fisherman deeply engrossing. Langan's novel follows two widowers whose fishing trips lead them to a remote reservoir with a terrible, ancient secret. The creeping dread and cosmic horror are masterfully built, evoking the same sense of awe and terror as the best stories in Datlow's anthology.

If you appreciated how Lovecraft’s Monsters reimagined cosmic terror through new voices, you'll love The Ballad of Black Tom, which retells Lovecraft’s 'The Horror at Red Hook' from the viewpoint of Charles Thomas Tester, a Black musician in 1920s Harlem. LaValle brings a sharp, modern lens to classic horror, capturing the eldritch strangeness and adding powerful social commentary.

If you enjoyed the way Lovecraft’s Monsters offers a collection of atmospheric, eerie tales from various authors, you’ll be captivated by Ligotti’s stories. His collection weaves nightmarish, existential horror with poetic prose, delivering chilling vignettes reminiscent of the best stories in Datlow’s anthology.

If you found yourself fascinated by the psychological depth and ambiguous realities in stories like Caitlín R. Kiernan’s 'The Same Deep Waters as You' from Lovecraft’s Monsters, We Have Always Lived in the Castle will enthrall you. Jackson’s tale, told through the eyes of the peculiar Merricat Blackwood, draws you into a world where reality is constantly in question and dread simmers beneath the surface.

If you relished the morally complex protagonists and interwoven plots of Lovecraft’s Monsters, Barron’s The Croning delivers a similarly intricate experience. The novel follows Don Miller as he uncovers horrifying cosmic truths and confronts his own complicity in strange, ancient rituals. The narrative’s layers and the protagonist’s questionable choices create a deeply disturbing journey.
