I recommend getting the large expansions before the small ones because of their extra components. But don't get Kingsport first because it has no unstable locations. Don't get Innsmouth first for a number of reasons I won't go into here.
So that really leaves Dunwich, unless you're willing to get Kingsport and Innsmouth together (they complement each other well).
Definitely Dunwich
Big Box: Dunwich>Innsmouth>Kingsport
Small Box: Lurker in the Threashold>King in Yellow>Black Goat of the Woods>Curse of the Dark Pharaoh

Since Lurker has not even been released yet, it is an unfair assessment to say that it would be the best one. That would be assuming that it will be the best because it is the most recently released, but then that would make Black Goat the best small box expansion released to date, and in my humble opinion it is the worst.
Lurker could wind up disappointing everybody. This announcement is all we have to go on so far.
Whatever you do, get Dunwich first.

Reason I think Lurker would be best is because it has a "core" mechanic, something wich no other small box exampnsion has.
Dunwich- Injury/Madness
Innsmouth- Personal Story
Kingsport- Epic Battle
Lurker- the new gates, also relatioinship cards too maybe
I am excited about the new gates, but I'm somewhat suspicious of the relationship cards. It feels like someone's trying to slip in Guardians through the back door. If there will be negative relationships as well as positive relationships, I'll be pleased though.
Thanks to you All for the posts.
I'll go for Dunwich as recommended !!
