Not necessarily horror but just books with creepy imagery or themes.

I still remember how immersed I was in this book when I got to the part where his undead dad and his monkey daughter start howling at eachother in the middle of the night, I'll never forget the feeling that gave me.

Unclay was one of the most unsettling books I’ve read. It is kinda a satire, kinda a comedy but it is extremely dark
