Horror Recommendations? (literature.cafe)

Hello! In the spirit of Halloween, I wanted to see if anyone had some recommendations for good horror books?!

Open to new and classic books. I've read quite a bit of Stephen King already. Some classics like Dracula, Turn of the Screw, Shirley Jackson books, etc. Exorcist is probably the scariest book I've read.

What else should I try?

My usual go-to recommendations for Stephen King readers looking to branch out a bit are The Good House by Tananarive Due, Ghost Story by Peter Straub, and The Kind Folk by Ramsey Campbell.
