In the development of horror as a genre, what year/work/author starts being scary?

Works like frankenstein or dracula are interesting, but I find it hard to believe people still find them scary. I think horror loses its effect quickly with time, so texts must have other legs to stand on as those fail. That said, how old is the oldest book that still frightens you?
