Since you are a crime/mystery fan and a horror fan, then I have to suggest Michael Slade. His novels are a cross between murder mystery and horror and most of his novels have the same protagonist like the Lincoln Rhyme books.

So, as far as horror writers go, what authors have you read?

You sound like me, I have over 800 novels and have probably only gotten halfway through all of them, lol. I've read 85% of King's novels but can't say that about any other author, which means I've read a lot of different writers.
Sorry it took me awhile to get back to you Bob. Busy week with my Army recruitor.- I felt the same way while reading the Black House. I almost always enjoy reading but books like that are just rare, there like a complete escape from reality. Really, really enjoyed that book. Lmao yes, I have so many books and don't read as fast as I once did for whatever reason but I'll eventually get through all of them i'm sure. Hmm, horror authors I have read.. I'm like you whereas I have read mostly King because he is what got me into reading in the first place. I read a little over 20 King Novels.. I've read 2 Dean Koontz- "The Taking" and "Your Heart Belongs to me". Tom Piccirilli- "Midnight Road" and "Every Shallow Cut" "The Killing Room" by John Manning, The Girl Next Door (one of my favorites) by Ketchum and The Lost just to name a few... And I plan to try out Bentley Little and John Saul and Simmons like you recommended I do. How is Little or Saul, have you ever read one of theirs?
My apologies if I missed any typos
