LOL!! I'll stick to Goosebumps.

I know I can't stomach reading or watching Sodom but I love reading/hearing people talk about it. It's fascinating to me. Just curious - What, in your opinion, and in the opinion of critics makes it a masterpiece?
...
Back to the topic at hand - More recently the books that have seriously creeped me out are
The Shining by Stephen King and
Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill. And I loved King's "Children of the Corn" short story.
