Any genuinely good horror books I could read?

I like the earlier Stephen King novels.

Not all of the stories in this book are necessarily horror, but the ones concerning the little people mythology gave me a good spook.

its KOOLKAT!!!

Anything by William Hope Hodgson, in some ways a master to HP Lovecraft

Anything by Marx, it's absolutely horrifying that people take it seriously. I find his lack of understanding of economics to be rather spoopy.

House of Leaves has a good creepy atmosphere

No, most good ones are way above your reading level.

i got this book out of a free bin outside at a resale store, it was falling apart, and it was about this guy. it was a nonfiction, here's what i remember about it

>he had a high IQ, he had been in and out of mental hospitals all his life
>had a thing for manipulating and tended to stick around people dumber than him
>he ended up keeping like, seven mentally handicapped girls locked up in his basement
>the sister of one of them literally came to the door looking for her
>people didn't catch him until they smelled him trying to boil alive one of the bodies of the girls he had accidentally killed
>he had planned on keeping them locked up and constantly pregnant

don't remember names but it was pretty fucked up boi.

also i had this book called Demons or something and it was full of short stories about demons, there were lots of pretty good ones. The Exorcist has a damn good novel from the excerpts I've read, but I haven't been able to get ahold of it.

I also would like to read ringu by koji shizuki or however you spell his name

junji ito is great, but he's an artist.
