I've never felt the horror has never really worked well in a "still-image" form.

Are any of the hellraiser comics any good? Hellraiser is one of my favourite horror franchises.

I'd argue that it is a bit more than just still imagery that spooks.

The works of Emily Carroll.

Back when issue #18 was solicited, Simone said that there was a Season 2 coming along in the future, but who knows if Vertigo will even exist by then.
The last arc really did feel rushed, but a lot of the series did. I was expecting Simone to just blow everything up and leave everything on a bleaker note

>>93352189
I remember getting the first few issues of that wave of Vertigo comics, but then I fell off because I literally just forgot they exist because DC barely advertised them. I don't manage to get to the comics store every week, so sometimes there are months between visits and I have to catch up, and it's harder to remember what I was even following.

Totally need to catch up on this, as well as Art Ops. I think the only one I followed all the way through was Twilight Children, but that was only four issues (great book, though).

I highly disagree. Horror is simply the act of horror. People nowadays confuse gore and jump scares as the ideal horror experience. If something can cause you to overthink to the point of spooking yourself then that would be good horror.

It depends on definition: http://www.splitlipcomic.com/2004/09/horror-comics-no-such-thing/ discusses this and I kinda agree still images lend more to existential horror (example: dread at one's own circumstances). I also agree it;s very rarely done well.

Also pretty much EVERY slasher movie series has gotten play in the comics world.
Plenty of then surprisingly good.

Maybe it is something it simply being art that makes over-the-top moments easier to enjoy (some kinda suspension of disbelief thing idk).

But seriously every horror franchise.
Army of Darkness, Nightmare on Elms Street, Child's Play, Hatchet, PumpkinHead, WaxWorks, PuppetMaster, GingerDeadMan, etc.

I've had some bad luck with horror comics, most I've checked out relied too much on gore. I hate that. I'm more of a Lovecraft guy or ''Creepy figure in a dark corner'' type of horror.

It is a more visual medium that can't rely on audio so compensate to Show not Tell or something, but I can understand someone not caring for it.

EM Carroll comics are likely what you're looking for.

There's that one I've seen posted on /x/ where some kids are playing outside in the snow when they see some weird thing that ends up killing the boy and possessing the girl, then the girl kills her parents. Anybody else remember that?

Those are superhero comics with a thin veneer of horror trappings.

>>93355089
Not in my opinion. I thought it was fucking awful, because the authors didn't seem to want to write good short stories, and frequently shit out little terrible ones to justify it being an anthology.

>>93352084
>I've never felt the horror has never really worked well
>Double negative
>I've felt the horror has really worked well

animation and comics just can't pull off horror
horror derives from dangers set in the real world. with live action you have the suspension of disbelief so your brain can be tricked into thinking these fake dangers are real. with comics and animation though there is no suspension of disbelief, you know its a drawing and anything can happen in a cartoon/comic.
thats why comics and cartoons have to rely on unsettling imagery and eeriness, like salad fingers. but salad finger still lacks key horror elements because its in a cartoony style so you know the characters are not real.
compare salad fingers to david firth's other horror works like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miQrzviTPQg
or
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYjny4qNy24
they are creepier than salad fingers because they use objects/photos from life to create the uncanny valley.

>>93351627
The ones that have actually managed to make me feel queasy are Beautiful Darkness by Kerascoet and Beasts of Burden.

Locke and Key, Sandman, Bedlam, Seven to Eternity, Heavy Metal Magazine. Nail biter want quite my thing, but people seem to dig it.

Through the Woods was pretty much the only thing I've ordered midway through a storytime thread.

It doesn't bother me, to be honest. One of the key elements of horror atmosphere for me is either silence which still pages do provide or good music

I had the exact same feeling, though it took me a while to adequately describe why. I think it's because the monsters were blatantly malevolent rather than being powerful and indifferent to human beings.

>>93354808

>>93352084
Have you ever read Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark? Those books proved horror can be in still images.

I've been enjoying Harrow County. To be honest I don't know if it's particularly scary, but it's the comic I look forward to the most when I visit my LCS.

You know truth be told. I don't care if it doesn't scare me. Alien doesn't really scare me, but it has great atmosphere, a cool monster, and just an interesting idea.

There's a vampire comic about a cancer patient and his female junkie friend that's pretty great and bleak

>>93360346
I find suspension of disbelief harder in live action. Mostly cause most special effects will end up lacking no matter the budget/dedication, as well as knowing that this is impossible in our world.

In comics or cartoons it is all possible, and therefore it is all believable.

But this is more talk about getting into the story, not getting scared.

Excluding TV series Cryptkeeper,
who is your favorite horror host?

I personally like Uncle Creepy from the recent comics (haven't read older stuff of that title so can't remark if exactly the same).

Also Vincent Price, but that's cheating too.

>>93354099
Is there an English version?

>>93351627
It may not be horror in the traditional sense but it is definitely surreal and unsettling. Sometimes I find the best horror is when you venture outside of the genre itself.

Any particular reason House Of Mystery and Weird Mystery were singled out of all DC's horror titles? No House Of Secrets, Secrets Of Haunted House, The Witching Hour, Ghosts, or The Unexpected. They were all a crapshoot from story to story but are these objectively better for some reason?
