if we're going to go ahead and open the thread up to anime, Madoka Magica is OP's pic from episodes 4-12 and during the third movie. it's quite surprising considering the content of the first three episodes desu

it's simultaneously both entry level and exit level postmodernism. it's really accessible for people who have never read anything remotely pomo (due to its horror elements), but it's also the novel that brought pomo to its logical conclusion. it gets bashed here for being babby's first pomo, and the author is by all accounts a hack, but it's actually a masterpiece
>>12981929
nothing I've posted is a specific spoiler. all you've seen is a picture of a ton of racoons around a black thing and a picture of a girl covered in blood. how, exactly, is this a spoiler?

It's not a 100% fit for what you're asking for, but you might be interested in The Other Side by Alfred Kubin (also check out Kubin's artworks).

I didn't finish it because of how badly it was typeset (yes, really), but Michael Cisco's The Narrator might be also of interest.
