Without going into specifics so the creature/entity/plot is given, I’m looking for horror that is keep-you-up-at-night level. A good wendigo or poltergeist or even disease epidemic book would be greatly appreciated.
I loved books like Pet Sematary, the Troop, The Quiet Boy (short story), Contagion. I try to go into horror blind so I am fully unaware of what to expect, so I’ve read a lot of duds lately. Psychological horror is ok, if it’s unpredictable/not just “normal person gaslit into thinking they’re crazy” type trope.
The only horror I was unable to finish was Tender is the Flesh. My kudos to you if you got through that one.
Thank you all for your advice
I think you might like Dean Koontz. I haven’t read him in years, but I remember Phantoms being pretty good.
False memory too, very much a psychological horror
Thank you! I’ve read some of his action/thriller types, but that was years ago so I don’t remember much. I’ll give this one a try!
