Thanks JDW. I have yet to read any of Lee's stuff. I have "Backwoods" on my Kindle ...

That was neither a recommendation nor an anti-recommendation, in this case, as I've yet to read any of them. I do, however, have Trolley No. 1852 set aside to read in the near future, after which I'll decide whether I want to follow up on any of the rest of these. According to what I've heard, Lovecraft is a considerable influence on him, and this is backed by the following, from Wiki's entry:

Of note, the author cites as his strongest influence horror legend H. P. Lovecraft; in 2007, Lee embarked on what he calls his “Lovecraft kick” and wrote a spate of novels and novellas which tribute Lovecraft and his famous Cthulhu Mythos. Among these projects are THE INNSWICH HORROR, “Trolley No. 1852,” HAUNTER OF THE THRESHOLD, GOING MONSTERING, “Pages Torn From A Travel Journal,” and “You Are My Everything.” Lee promises more Lovecraftian work on the horizon.

Whether these are any good or not... we'll see....
