      I have read several of these, and seen some of the movies of the others. I used to be into the horror genre, but not so much anymore, my husband still is though.

        A good list Itop. One of my favorites "When Rabbit Howls" is really not a horror novel. But being a true story about incest and the damage it caused the innocent would make your skin crawl.

        I have either read or seen movies of the ten.

        There have been some good Science Fiction "Scare" stories such as " Something Evil this way Comes" and I guess my favorite horror author is Stephen King. His "The Fog" is a dandy. I especially liked "Needful Things" even thought it is not scary.

        Only one I agree should be in top ten is The Exorcist. read the book, saw the movie once. Had no problems as I'm a horror buff, but after the movie around midnight, I was dropped off at a friends house (5 houses away)told him all about it, still no problem, but when I left his house to walk home, I started thinking about that voice etc...I don't ever think I ran so fast in my life, even when I was being shot at.
        Now 30yrs later, I don't even want to see commercial previews on TV about it. It truly bothers me.

          Don't really go to horror movies. But I'm glad to see the old classics Dracula and Frankenstein on the list. It's only a short story; but I always liked "The Tell-tale Heart" by Edgar Allen Poe.

            "Salem's Lot" is pretty creepy, but "Frankenstein", I feel, is the most important of the Horror novels because it's dealing with what might happen if we start playing the roll of God in creating life...which is going to be a reality very soon with cloning and chimeras. I mean, IF you have a child born screwed up, you can always blame it on God. If YOU screw up that child through cloning and genetic manipulation, where does the blame go then?
