I just found this thread when I did a search. I've been looking for some recommendations.

Bird Box by Josh Malerman is the best horror that I've read, a lot better than any of Stephen King's more recent work. A woman and her children live in an abandoned house, and have to wear blindfolds if they go outside. That's all you should know about the story before you read it. Skip the reviews. The author is in the band that did the theme song for a show called Shameless.

Danielewski's House of Leaves was great, but it's more psychological horror. I don't know if you could read it as an ebook. The way that the type is printed reflects what's happening in the story.

I'm looking for more like both of these books.

William Peter Blatty's The Exorcist was incredible. It's more about faith than anything else.
