I no longer read horror books, as it turns out that unlike films, horror books give me nightmares. I guess they are more powerful than films.
Right now I am in the process of reading "The girl with the dragon tattoo". A gripping book, definitely recommend if you haven't read it.

Someone here said this was good. Can't recall who it was but he was right. Weird in all the right ways so far.

I am interested in reading the texts that gave you nightmares.

The most recent book I read that I actually finished was Stephen King's Cell. Damn that was good. I also cried at one part.

A month ago I tried a book called House of Blood by Bryan Smith. It was quite good at first, but I had to put it down once I got an idea of how it would probably turn out at the end. Oh well. :cool:

Might have been me but I can't remember, anyway it is one I would recommend to any horror fans.

I just recently finished Richard Laymon's Alarums. It was a good, taut thriller, that kept me reading well into the night, a very quick read. I am starting on Laymon's Night of the Lonesome October, it's starting off very good.
