Hey /lit/

I just listened to a story from Coast to Coast AM that made me want to explore horror fiction.

Can you recommend some really terrifying things? I read The Shining when I was 12 or so, but I haven't read any other horror.

Also, here is the story - I recommend it. It's about the murder of 74 children in a small town:

I've just skimmed his wiki and he looks interesting - I like the fact that he seems to have more of a literary bent, as well as being scary. Thanks.

Bruno Schulz has some interesting stuff too, if you can track down any of his books
