Im writing a horror novel but have never read one and wanna get into reading horror to help inspire me and develop a stronger writing technique, any recs? I am looking for any form of horror really I just don't vibe with Stephen Kings writing style idk why! I could never get into his books, but please suggest any of your favorite horror novels and what about the writing and how they conveyed their stories stood out to you.
My autism detector is off the charts as OP fights anyone telling her to read a horror book before trying to write one. She later storms off and labels everyone "pretentious" before forgetting the whole thing and moving on to other matters.
Like managing her dread rot

I mean- lets caveat this... she is a flaming r-slur and sounds naive abd on her wrirting style alone I wouldn't... BUT she asked for recommendations of horror books ( that arent stephen king) to read not opinions that she should read more books. Thats literally what shes asking for lol.
Am I losing my mind? have I gone soft?

Honestly Stephen King is so beyond GOATed the the best advice is to just read a different Stephen King story.
