luschlotz 09.03.11	yep. .. about horror, um. Stephen King is awesome, but youve probably read those already.
Trebor. 09.03.11	Hop On Pop is my favorite
JoeEspionage 09.03.11	I'm not really into horror except for a few stephen king novels, but he's kinda overrated. What other kind of stuff do you like? I really like David Foster Wallace and John Irving right now.
SpottedTrout 09.03.11	I read Salem's Lot by Stephen King earlier this summer, would recommend and you could try Into the Wild by Tana French. Not really horror, but its got its freaky moments
Restrikted 09.03.11	Stephen King rules. It was awesome. Took me 4 days to read.
Detriment2 09.03.11	Feed (from the Newsflesh Trilogy) is a good one, if you like zombies. its a fresh take on a well-trodden path.
PostModernJellyfish 09.03.11	The Cell by Stephen King is pretty good. The whole plot is about a guy who witnesses an apocalypse of the world brought on by signals emitted by people's cell phones that turn their owners into homicidal maniacs. It's awesome.
Acanthus 09.03.11	I second Feed, though I feel like there needn't be a sequel. Can't go wrong with Lovecraft either.
JoeEspionage 09.03.11	Yeah I never read for a really long time but about a year ago I really picked up on it. Stephen King is overrated. I haven't read all his stuff but from what I've read he's very hit and miss.
Blind 09.03.11	fuck everything but the lord of the rings
paxman 09.03.11	Yeah, Stephen King is overrated. I read the behemoth Under The Dome awhile back and hated it. My favorite of his is probably Misery or The Stand. But the best horror novel I've ever read is Carrion Comfort or Summer of Night, both by Dan Simmons. I couldn't recommend him enough.
PostModernJellyfish 09.03.11	Anything by Edgar Allen Poe. The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty.
JoeEspionage 09.03.11	Oh yeah the silence of the lambs is really good.
FearThyEvil 09.03.11	Stephen King The Shining
Acanthus 09.03.11	For me Poe and Lovecraft go hand in hand.
toxin. 09.03.11	I've heard The Picture of Dorian Gray was good but I'm not sure if it's quite horror
JoeEspionage 09.03.11	@xtoxin That was the most homoerotic book I've ever read. But it wasn't bad.
Blind 09.03.11	nick stop saying newfag 4chan shit is retarded even when it's done on 4chan let alone a different site
toxin. 09.03.11	@joe, does that make it not-horror? lol. I just read an overview on Wiki though, and yeah it sounds all homo.
Cuggymunt 09.03.11	if you can get past the initial shock of the language then try reading A Clockwork Orange, not really a horror novel but its really violent and engaging. I dont think the film really does it justice 'We need to talk about kevin' by lionel shriver is really good and if you want more classic gothic style I really recommend 'Rebecca' by daphne du maurier, Dracula, Frankenstein and Jekyll and Hyde. Dracula drags in places but its well worth it
Acanthus 09.03.11	Dracula is amazingly great, and A Clockwork Orange film I quite enjoyed.
JoeEspionage 09.03.11	Nah it's horror. Just wanted to point that out.
Cuggymunt 09.03.11	im shit with genres, both in literature and music forgot to mention dr faustus, i love that so much
Boyaawitcheese 09.03.11	The long walk by Stephen King/ R.B. is my favorite of his books.
Winesburgohio 09.03.11	American Psycho is fucking horrific. AND AND AND Crime and Punishment is unsettling enough for it to classify as 'horror' imo. Or anything by Dostoyevsky really.
thecheatisnotdead 09.03.11	As others have said, Poe and Lovecraft are always quality. House of Leaves sort of takes a while to get going, and can be deliberately alienating at times, but it's an extremely good, unsettling, and cerebral piece of horror writing. (Sort of similar, but not quite as deep and much easier to get through, is The Raw Shark Texts. Not really straight-up horror, but interesting nonetheless.)
Eclecticist 09.03.11	DRACULA by BRAM STOKER
North0House2 09.03.11	You need some Dr. Seuss.
RangerTaffles 09.03.11	Read some H.P Lovecraft.
Adash 09.03.11	"Anything by Edgar Allen Poe." I completely support this statement. But really, all you need is Harry Potter and the Crock of Shit or something by Dan Brown. That genuinely terrifies me
jefflebowski 09.03.11	HP LOVECRAFT HP LOVECRAFT HP LOVECRAFT. Furthermore, HP Lovecraft
GodL1ke 09.03.11	i second HP Lovecraft, and i'm surprised no one has mentioned Dean Koontz (who has cited lovecraft as an influence). his earlier works were a very interesting mixture of sci-fi and horror but later on he dropped the sci-fi element. read Whispers by Koontz
jefflebowski 09.03.11	1984 is actually pretty horrifying if you think about how the story pans out
PurpleDino 09.03.11	I Am Legend is an awesome book sort of horror/sci-fi
Puzzles 09.03.11	I really dig poetry. I'm not really much of a reader though. It takes too long... ahha
lobby 09.03.11	so how are you planning to dig this poetry if not by reading it...
paxman 09.03.11	Come on guys, H.P. Lovecraft is a clumsy writer.
americanmusicmachine 09.03.11	I'd recommend "the ax" by donald westlake "a feast of snakes" by harry crews "already dead" by charlie huston and "high rise" by j.g. ballard
TheFonz123 09.03.11	Yeah, i love reading uh this isnt really horror but it's dark, and its one of the best books ever written: In Cold Blood by Truman Capote
Voivod 09.03.11	Clive Barker - The Books of Blood series Clive Barker - The Thief of Always awesome stuff.
Voivod 09.03.11	Graham Masterton - Those who Never Sleep
