Not horror really, but scary.

Perhaps some Clive Barker?

I've not read any horror for many years but would like to read Clive Barker.

I used to read Frank Herbert, that was allot of scary.

Stephen King!

Sorry, I hate being that guy but I seriously couldn't help myself :evil:.

Definitely check out some lovecraft. While not necessarily horror some classics from H.G. Wells and George Orwell are pretty damn scary in their own right.

Try The House on the Borderland by William Hope Hodgson. Creepy, alien, and very tripped out.
