I really enjoy Lovecraft's short stories. Some are extremely abstract, which I found off-putting when I was younger. I think it makes for a more interesting read now.
I enjoy that a lot of the horror isn't from monsters jumping out and scaring you or highly graphic detailed violence (a lot of the violence happens 'off-screen' or read from newspapers or stuff like that), but it's more about the breakdown of the human mind when it encounters something far bigger and older than itself. Neat stuff.
Yes! It's very mystical and paranormal without the gross outs.
