Other weird fiction writers? Not terribly modern ones; those suck.

The Willows by Algernon Blackwood
Pu Songling's Strange Tales From a Chinese Studio
Clark Ashton Smith, Arthur Machen, William Hope Hodgson.
Anything of Thomas Ligotti’s work. He’s modern, but he’s second only to Lovecraft.
T. E. D. Klein
Das Kapital
Amazing book
Well nobody has said Robert E. Howard yet and that's your obligatory obvious answer so there you go
Anything by Ambrose Bierce
The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers
anything by William Hope Hodgson
Zotique Cycle by Clark Ashton Smith
The Dying Earth Series by Jack Vance
>The Dying Earth Series by Jack Vance
Lend a hand to this nigga, is pick related the ultimate anthology of The Dying Earth Series? I'm very autistic when it comes to short stories, or collections, I avoid anything remotely abridged or "selected".
Yes user, it is.
Calvino is weird. Cosmicomics is fun.
Lovecarft wasn't a writer he was the prophet
Iä! Shub-Niggurath! Iä! Shub-Niggurath! The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young!
Thanks, I'll order it. You saved me a lot of time because I won a gift card and I didn't know to do with it.
Guénon.
Why was he so great bros?
He even predicted the age of his death.
Iä! Shub-Niggurath!
I want to try the king in yellow, it inspired lovecraft but it is from 1860 or something. Is it readable?
It’s easy.
Seconding Clark Ashton Smith.
I've been reading all his Averoigne texts lately, pleasantly surprised.
If you specifically want stuff adjacent to Lovecraft, read his essay Supernatural Horror in Literature. It should give you enough suggestions for at least a few months of reading.
