Lovecraft and Robert Bloch were clearly having fun bumping each-other off in "The Shambler from The Stars" and this follow-up tale, but they kept the stories terrifyingly serious, and the HPLHS crew have actually improved on the original. They've added new and interesting characters for the unfortunate hero to interact with and fleshed out the back stories of the Starry Wisdom sect and the missing reporter, which Lovecraft only briefly touched on. And all the while maintaining the atmosphere of steadily mounting terror and paranoia. One of their best yet!
