"The Haunting of Hill House" by Shirley Jackson. It's a very good, scary ghost story. Here's a link to the book's Wikipedia page if you're interested and want more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Haunting_of_Hill_House
Ciao! :-)

I don't know if it falls into horror or suspense, but Intensity by Dean Koontz was the scariest, creepiest book I've ever read. I started reading it while I was pregnant and I was so scared I was actually afraid I'd transfer some weird vibe to my son, so I had to stop and pick it up after he was born!!!

Anything Stephen King. His books are terrifying.

Stephen King is too easy to say. Try "American Psycho" by Bret Easton Ellis

Any of Stephen King's or Clive Barker's earlier books. Try "Carrie" by King; it's his first, and one of his best.

How about something in the public domain (read: free) from H.P. Lovecraft?

Cell, by Steven King. I read it and it's not only scary, it continues to creep you out AFTER you've read it.
