I love haunted house books and I've read a lot of them. I'm wondering if any of you could point me in the direction of some good ones I may have overlooked. I'm especially ignorant to contemporary literature -- not for any good reason, except that generations of old books will always outnumber new publications.
Probably not a complete list, and some of these may only arguably fit the genre, but here are the one's I've read so far:
Haunting of Hill House, Hell House, House of Leaves, The Tenant (Topor), Eltonsbrody (Mittelholzer), The Green Man (Amis), The Shunned House, Strangers (Yamada), The Shining, How To Sell a Haunted House, Horrorstor, A Stir of Echoes, The Legacy (Coyne), The Amityville Horror, The House Next Door (Siddons), Burnt Offerings, A Head Full of Ghosts, The Elementals (McDowell), The Turn of The Screw, The Little Stranger (Waters), Rebecca (du Maurier), The House on the Strand (du Maurier) Killing Commendatore (Murakami), Wuthering Heights, The Sentinel (Konvitz),
Edit: Adding books I missed. The Woman in Black (Hill) -- thanks, Lottiemillhaven.
Really anything by Darcy Coates!

Agreed. I have read most of her novels, and they are fun easy reads to set a spooky tone
