Can anyone think of any good horror of thriller books?

The Shining by Stephen King, Song of Kali by Dan Simmons, The Damnation Game by Clive Barker, They Thirst by Robert McCammon, The Fog by James Herbert, Ghost Story by Peter Straub, The Hungry Moon by Ramsey Campbell, and The Cellar by Richard Laymon, very frightening,and entertaining books.

'Newes from the dead' !!!

I am not so much into thriller books and I don't remember why I picked this book but I'm glad I did. I couldn't put it down. It was seriously really amazing. I'll summarize it for you.

This book is actually based on a true story of a girl named Anne Green who was hanged back in the 16th century. She was very young and very poor. Reason for her hanging was that she was accused of killing her newborn child, and even when she tried to tell them that the baby was still-born, no one believed her and right before she was hanged, it is recorded in the papers that she said that God will tell them the truth (something like that I cant remember)

And her dead body was given to some Medical and Scientist people for dissection and study of human body. And so basically she is coming back to consciousness RIGHT ON THE TABLE !!! but she can't move. So she narrates her story and how she is remembering what had led her to her hanging etc...

Veeeryy interesting book..!!! I really hope you choose to read it.. It kept me hooked..

Oh and the Author's name is Mary Hooper.

I think Anthony Horrowitz writes some scary stories (funny his last name almost has horror in it). I've read some Nancy Drew ghost stories too. It was in one book.
