He was up to suggestions, I read some of his letters, He exchanged letters frequently with his friends, colleagues and aspiring writers, he always credited them (sometimes paying with poems of gratitude) when he used one of their suggestions and many of them received suggestions or even based their work on Lovecraft's myths (just recall two names at the moment, Clark Ashton Smith and Charles W. Smith). So even if didn't add this version on his works, he wouldn't mind if someone created a story based upon it.

The most proeminent characteristic that I can see he shares with Nasu, they both have problems with "mass demand". Lovecraft died in poverty, and had to ghostwrite or even accept works that he disliked, publishing cliches that he hated in fanzines (good triumphing over the evil, blah blah etc), Nasu did the same, he adapted his work after Kara no Kyoukai and Tsukihime (I blame Takeuchi).

But anyway, I just feel sorry for Abigail, she's a good girl and a protagonist, which basically means if this was one of his myths, she would be already dead. If he portrayed her as an evil being, she would fit perfectly the role of Keziah Mason.
