Horror Aficionados discussion

How dark/visceral are you wanting to go? If you are finding "mainstream" horror stories to be a bit blasé for you, you might be ready to cross the threshold into Splatterpunk territory. If not, I can recommend something milder.

I'd be interested too but I like the dark and atnospheric side of Silent Hill.

Hopefully we can each get some good suggestions! :) I'm actually ok with some gore, I just don't like any that involves kids.

Here's hoping we get some good books!

I can suggest you a couple based in your comments:

- Infernal City by Edward Lee

- The Rising by Brian Keene

- The Resort by Bentley Little

I haven't read it but I was browsing and came across this The Descent by Jeff Long. Looks like it might fit the bill and it's now on my TBR

I like the sound of some of these, I might check them out. The atmosphere of the Silent Hill games really sticks with you for years, you never forget it.

James Herbert, Adam Nevill, Brian Keene, are good choices.
