I'm on my third horror novel this year, and while they've all been good in their own way, none of them have quite scratched the itch for me.
I've read:
1. The Terror
2. The Twisted Ones
3. The Exorcist(halfway through)
What I want is that *shudder* feeling. Like I suddenly feel ants crawling on me, or like I need to put the book down for a sec and look around the room to make sure I'm still safe.
In my search, I realized the chill I get when I read a lot of r/nosleep stories is what I'm looking for. Especially the one titled: My wife has been peeking at me from around corners and behind furniture. It's gone from weird to terrifying (I'd post a link, but they're not allowed).
Any suggestions? Thanks!
