Is it true that Lovecraft was influenced by the demons from his books?

When, long ago, the gods created Earth
In Jove's fair image Man was shaped at birth.
The beasts for lesser parts were next designed;
Yet were they too remote from humankind.
To fill the gap, and join the rest to Man,
Th'Olympian host conceiv'd a clever plan.
A beast they wrought, in semi-human figure,
Filled it with vice, and called the thing a Nigger.

What do you think of H. P. Lovecraft? What do you think his best work is, and why?
I've yet to have a complete and comprehensive reading of his work, so this opinion is admittedly an uninformed one, but I find that Herbert West: Reanimator really has what it takes to keep me up at night.

Howard Lovecraft was a failed pulp writer and incel racist shithead who deservedly died in pain, poverty and obscurity. By all rights he should be forgotten. So how come he is not? Did he somehow gain ironic meme popularity that spiralled out of control like Stirner and DFW or what is going on here?

“The cat is such a perfect symbol of beauty and superiority that it seems scarcely possible for any true aesthete and civilised cynic to do other than worship it.”
“For the cat is cryptic, and close to strange things which men cannot see. He is the soul of antique Aegyptus, and bearer of tales from forgotten cities in Meroe and Ophir. He is the kin of the jungle’s lords, and heir to the secrets of hoary and sinister Africa. The Sphinx is his cousin, and he speaks her language; but he is more ancient than the Sphinx, and remembers that which she hath forgotten”

>Of course they can’t let niggers use the beach at a Southern resort – can you imagine sensitive persons bathing near a pack of greasy chimpanzees? The only thing that makes life endurable where blacks abound is the Jim Crow principle, & I wish they’’d apply it in N.Y. both to niggers & to the more Asiatic type of puffy, rat-faced Jew. Either stow ‘em out of sight or kill ‘em off – anything so that a white man may walk along the streets without shuddering nausea.
