Nautical horror

Simple request. Recommend unsettling stories of the ocean. This is a broad ask—Melville and Lovecraft both fit the bill, and anything in between.

Nothing pulpy though. Obviously no YA or mass produced garbo.

Oceanic horror kino is welcome too.

They can't all be terrible, can they?

Edit: Google gives this list of 46 books:

They probably all suck, and are probably YA. I'm not checking. I don't care.

There was a /r/nosleep thread featured here that was about a :marseytrain: who kills zxis entire family for :marseytrain2:sphobia or something (:marseymanysuchcases:), but even in horror stories, :marseytrain2:s are still NEETs mooching off their parents for HRT, toys, and vidya :marseyxd:

It was pretty decent horror * but now every single story has to mention globohomo (carp has seethe-posted about this a bunch).

EDIT: * INTERNET horror, creepypasta style.

Don't base your opinions around the dramatard consensus, we're r-slurred contrarians.

I searched and read through those threads right now. There was a comment about how most people who post on /r/nosleep are pooners, which made me remember something. A few years ago, a buddy recommended a horror series podcast (radio drama?). It was called the Magnus Archives, and it was about this British SCP Foundation-esque organization that records all kinds of spooky stories and events, which is at first episodic but then it develops an overarching storyline. In one of the extra episodes or something, where the writer of the show answers questions and replies to comments, he remarks about how a surprisingly high amount of the podcast's audience are lesbians, and one of the things they like about the show is how the main character isn't portrayed as a ladies men, and has no s*x life at all, even. As a professional nooticer, I didn't nootice too much stuff worth nooticing in the podcast up to that point (I think there was one episode where one of the interviewees was a transwoman whose career as a Hollywood writer was ruined when people found out she's trans? But that's it.) but then things changed and in the last season or so of the podcast the main character gets into a relationship with his male assistant and two female recurring characters hook up. Writing this essaypost I googled Magnus Archives and found its wiki and looked at few characters articles and they have a pronoun bar in the sidebar. :marseyitsover:
