RE: What do you think is the #1 monster in the Frictional Games Penumbra & Amnesia?
Anything insect-like would do.
A long time ago I read a short story by Lovecraft with Mi-Go in it, but it was a long time ago and I don't remember much of it. Though how I imagined the Mi-Go is quite different form the pictures.

I haven't read any stories with the Mi-Go, and some of the cards in that game I disagree/not care for with the looks (at least the ones I know of). Cthulhu himself has a few variations of card pics and abilities; one card has a better ability, but the other makes him look better.
I did an image search and found a fan drawing of the Mi-Go that (according to his and other people's comments) closely matches Lovecraft's description of them. http://nathanrosario.deviantart.com/art/...-114974351 It seems they made their first appearance in "The whisperer in Darkness".
Update: Here's a better image with the actual quote of their appearance by Lovecraft as the User Comments.

http://cloister.deviantart.com/art/Mi-Go...-181124223 Cool and very creepy pictures both of them. But they still don't really match the image in my head. Eh, if I could draw, I'd make a picture myself, but unfortunately I suck at drawing.
Actually, I checked my short story collection and it was actually Whisperer in the Darkness that I had read!

Makes you wonder, is the metal a light but strong material or did Alexander make these guys Olympic Athletes.

RE: What do you think is the #1 monster in the Frictional Games Penumbra & Amnesia?
I think the most horrible monster imagined by Frictional - is you, player. At least in Penumbra: Overture and surely in Amnesia: the Dark Descent the further I progressed through the world game, the more I realized that I am myself - is the most scary monster here, who do not deserve any mercy and forgiveness.
