Horror Books for Halloween

A random list of good, great, or at least entertaining horror books, just in time for Halloween. Just in case you're looking for something to get you in the mood. One per author, just to keep the list from getting too unwieldy. Some ya and even children's books included, if they also have adult reading appeal. A few more gothic than outright horror. Some very popular, some more obscure. Hope this helps get you in the mood for my favorite holiday of the year!
