* Lovercraft is not Edgar Allan Poe; expect no melodrama, no Victorian intellectual/literary masturbation.
* The stories in the Cthulhu Mythos is more accessible to new readers compared with those in the Dream Cycle series. Start reading the former, and if you like it, move to the latter.
* The format of the stories in the Cthulhu Mythos are usually as follows: a slow setup where the character comes across something that does not feel right, followed by the character encountering whatever the setup was all about (like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QFwo57WKwg this]), and finally, the character getting out of the encounter forever changed by their experience.
Take in the prose, especially the "encounters", ''slowly''; the prose is seemingly opaque and verbose, but it becomes very rewarding after getting used to the style. Think about it: Lovercraft does not have (or to be precise, ''didn't have'') at his disposal but the vocabulary of the English language to draw scenes as vivid (and horrific) as--eh, again--[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QFwo57WKwg this].
Start exercising those imagination-muscles of yours, soldier!
* You might also wish to read the Dunwich Horror after reading The Call of Cthulhu as well as Haunter in the Dark after The Colour Out of Space.
