Dunno i guess that's sorta like asking what is the most pretentious genre, or which genre has the most poseurs

black metal is a good genre for telling people to fuck off

Clive Barker
Clark Ashton Smith

For fiction, Poe, Machen, Blackwood, Clark Ashton Smith (namely Zothique and Averoigne), weird horror and dark fantasy generally. Also gothic horror like The Monk.
For poetry, dark romanticism / decadent; Shelley, Baudelaire, etc.
For philosophy, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Cioran. Also Bataille; though his fiction and transgressive literature influenced Deathspell Omega, afaik it doesn't evoke the black metal vibes that weird/gothic horror does.

Good music but Swans' The Seer captures the atmosphere of Blood Meridian better imo.
