It´s quite a classic, to a point where parodies and adaptations are far better known as the original, I guess. I was very familiar of the plot just from watching random youtube videos.

I'm just not sure I would be interested in reading a whole collection of stories like this, so if anyone reads this: Are all Lovecraft stories like this (the character taking a long time to discover whats up with very little actually happening)? I didn't mind it here, because it was done effectively, but a few stories like this in a row could get tiresome, maybe? That doesn't change that I enjoyed it, even though I knew where it was going.
