It's Halloween.

Who do you think are the best horror authors?

I like Kings movies more than his books.

Women liked VC Andrew's back in the day. Though Lovecraft and Barker are the goats.
>>
Oswald Spengler

Hegel, he made the last 2 centuries horrific to live in.

Circe in Ulysses feels like an absurd nightmare during a fever that’s almost as funny as it is frightening and schizo. At least I think so
>>

Whoever wrote Sonic.exe, Bret Easton Ellis and the guy who wrote Higurashi!!!
>>24843432
I honestly can’t think of anyone other than this lot. I’m not really familiar with horror fiction, don’t like King though, I like Barker the most, despite being a faggot.
>>
do you feel horror reading pages in a book?
>>
>>24843832
Yeah, I remember reading that horror novel about your mom and when I flipped to the 3rd page, that abhorrent description of her physical appearance made me shit and piss myself out of fear, I closed the book and threw it out the window, the corner of the book hitting an infant in a perambulator on the head. Now I’m in prison thanks to you.

Cioran

Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I read his 'The Angel of the Odd' and I can't stop thinking about it. A very striking story

Arthur Machen

M.R. James is the ghost story GOAT
