Are you looking for pictures or sculpture? If it's the latter check Rachel Readmans thread or website RachelReadman.com.
I can recommend her 'Constant Reader' sculpture (pictures in my collection thread)

If you can find someone to sell you the extra fold-outs from Knowing Darkness, that would be perfect. Ask around.

Cemetery Dance also does prints periodically, if you are looking for something a little easier on the checkbook. They still have a couple signed Glenn Chadbourne prints on the website--only $25 each!

If you are looking for prints rather than sculpture, I have 'Constant Reader' and 'Emptiness' prints that are not scary, I offer commissions too or can add original art to the prints etc if you wish. Feel free to contact me to discuss your requirements.

Artist Remarques directly in the books are very popular and for the most part add value to the edition. Also, even if they are scary, they're in the book so your "Imps" won't see them unless you show them.

Also, Don Maitz, who did "Desperation" feels exactly as you do and does some wonderful work that is SK related, yet not as "scary".

There is also, Erin Wells...

And Alex McVey (who also does some SK related "lovable" statues)

Thanks Merlin

You are very welcome, my dear. I would be remiss if I did not mention that some of the folks I referenced are/have donated items to the Haven Fund that will be in coming auctions you can bid on.
