This is exactly how I feel.

I don't read a lot of nonfiction for this exact reason

I'll be gone in the dark freaked me out so much

Misery didn't scare me but it did make me feel like puking. I was reading it during study hall freshman year and I had to put it down and put my head on the desk lol.

Reading 1408 was pretty scary. The phone call part reeeeeally creeped me out

“This is nine! Nine! This is nine! Nine! This is ten! Ten! We have killed your friends! Every friend is now dead! This is six! Six!"

HEX by Thomas Olde Heuvelt really got under my skin.

I've never read IT the book but I listened to the audiobook narrated by Steven Weber and it's absolutely terrifying. I'd never seen the old movie or had any frame of reference but the voice he did for Pennywise still pops up in nightmares occasionally. Absolutely wonderfully done audiobook.

I've heard good things about that audio book. I've read the book a few times, but never listened to it

I remember reading American Psycho when I was 18. It was the first book to ever shake me. I never realised how deeply affecting written descriptions of murder can be. I finished it but some parts were just brutal.
