The only horror book I've read so far is the Shining by Stephen King and I loved it.
What I like about it is that it's very creative. It's not standard horror. The environment works in creative ways against the characters.
What are some books like this? Preferably another author than Stephen King.

The Fisherman – John Langan
Check out The Department of Truth by James Tynion IV. It has a great sweaty paranoid vibe.
The Terror by Dan Simmons
The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. It blends the fictional and historical Dracula and to me it almost feels like an Indiana Jones kind of story, with all the traveling and research.
I would recommend Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk. Creative. Confusing. Disgusting. But it gets stuck in the head.
Night Shift by Stephen King. Several short stories, but they get stuck in the head.
Morsels by Abe Moss
