It’s a short read but when it comes to horror I always recommend The Hellbound Heart by Clive Barker.

Ohh nice. It’s on the list. My favorite novela by King is The girl who loved Tom Gordon.

The Deep by Nick Cutter.

I’m not sure if it’s a case of hindsight, but I finished reading this right before the titanic sub incident and it definitely unlocked a new fear.

Last Days by Brian Evenson has really stuck with me, one of the best and most creative in the ‘cultist’ subgenre. Also seconding Negative Space by BR Yeager.

Never again reading

No but seriously, what a fantastically well written book. The premise seems cliché to start with but the twist halfway through is really original

I believe it’s been made into a film too
