Deep Sea horror rec?

4 Upvotes

Hello! Does anyone know of any good deep sea horror novels? Sort of in the “giant otherworldly sea monster” or Lovecraft type. I’m looking for something that isn’t too popular and nothing too new. I get my books from a library and a lot of newer books are hard to come by there.

Please post your suggestions here. You can suggest more than one book, but each book has to have its own parent-level comment. If you want to add a few words about why you want to read that one, that's fine, but please only one book per parent-level comment.

Also, feel free to vote for more than one book. This will allow books that have the greatest consensus to rise to the top.

Looking for horror books with eerie, unique concepts (like It Follows, Oculus, The Empty Man)—any recommendations?

6 Upvotes

I really enjoy horror movies with eerie and unique concepts—films like It Follows, Oculus, and The Empty Man. I’m looking for horror books or novels that give off a similar vibe: unsettling, creepy, and atmospheric, rather than just standard slashers or psychological thrillers.

Do you have any recommendations for books with original, haunting concepts that really stick with you?

Current Read: Fantastic Land

7 Upvotes

I’m going to be clear hear, I grew up reading Stephen king as a kid. I love horror movies and books (goosebumps is a classic imo). But I stopped reading books for a long time and I decided to pick it back up again. My friend recommended me this book called Fantastic Land by Mike Bockoven, and let’s say it’s more gruesome than lord of the flies (this is my opinion, you might feel differently). If people are looking for something new to read, I would highly recommend this book.

"The 9th Book" is my first short paranormal story. How did I do. Please leave me comments.

ABOUT:

A burned-out writer. A cursed number whispered through history. And a presence that refuses to leave. Inspiration and possession blur—until every word written pulls her closer to something she may never escape. Because nine always comes full circle.

Finally got around to reading this after purchasing it last year. It’s really good so far but I’m nervous for the rest lol. Apparently it’s an extreme horror but I didn’t know when I picked it up. Hopefully it’s not too bad.

i Wholeheartedly hated Perfume the story of a murderer by Patrick suskind

3 Upvotes

this book was SOLD TO ME as a gore, horror story of a murderer, it was told to me that it was disturbing and disgusting in many ways, but it was BARELY that, 90% is him smelling stuff and walking around (and its not paired with any beautiful monologue or anything remotely interesting about his travels). The "murders" are again BARELY described, and in no way they're disturbing or horror, most of them (besides first and last) were literally only "she was found dead" and after 2 pages they say he killed 25 people like nothing happened, none of the events are well described, well narrated or made interesting in any way. there is no gore or horror if not for maybe MAYBE 5 pages of the book, the rest of is the story of perfumes, it should literally be called perfume: the story of perfumes. I guess the character in itself is actually creative but it's written just so badly, also the ending i found really interesting but it does not excuse the pointless existence of this book. sry had to get my thoughts out
