if you want a truly horrifying book, about holocaust, and being the last person alive but your a vampire, check out "I am" its horrifyingly addictive, but if its hautend houses on a pshychological level you like you would be a pansy if you never read "the house of leaves"

I can't just give you one book; Stephen King's short stories are truly frightening. If you have never read Nightshift or Skeleton Crew(to name a couple) then you do NOT know what you are missing. The most terrifying author I have ever read is H.P. Lovecraft. The whole Cthulhu mythos is great reading, including many stories by other authors. I also recommend HPL's short story Pickman's Model.

I agree with Jimbo my favorite horror reads are Stephen King's short stories. I used to get a horror magazine when i was little and it would have short horror stories in it from really good writers like Stephen King. There was a story from Stephen King in there called "the finger" I have looked fo that story everywhere but I never have found it. I also like some Anne Rice books like The Witching Hour.

Stephen King
Most anything by Stephen King is amazingly scary.
Carrie was and still is my favorite Stephen King book.
NEVER EVER READ "Christine" by Stephen King...both the book and the movie sucked beyond repair.

If you want to read a Kick Ass story by Steven King, look for a book with 4 short stories by Richard Bachman. That was King's sue-do name back in his early days. I can't remember the name of the book, maybe Bachman Chronicles? Anyway, King wrote The Running Man, you know, the Schwarzenegger flick? Anyway, the book is so much better and I can't stress the 'so', so much better than the movie. I will spoil it for you if you want.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: The book ends with Ben Richards juggling his guts in his hands while flying a 747 he hijacked into the office of Damian Killian who happened to watch the plane come right at him from his window with a view. The last thing he saw was the pilot of the plane, Richards, giving him the finger right before the plane collided into the skyscraper exploding and killing them both.
