HWA's recommended reading list

I’ve been holding back on this recommended reading list for some time, mainly because it’s one of my favorites: The Horror Writers Association Horror Reading List.
I’ve liked scary stories for as long as I can remember, and this list features some all time classics from such authors as Stephen King, Ray Bradbury and H.P. Lovecraft.
Compiled by Thomas Deja and Nicholas Kauffman from a survey of the HWA’s general membership in 1996, this list is arranged alphabetically by author’s last name, so no ranking is implied by the order in which they’re listed. Here they are:

I’ve had the chance to read more than a few of these books, and I’d be interested to know how many you all have read and what you thought about them. (I’ve marked the one’s I’ve read in bold face type, so if you have any questions about them, just shoot me an e-mail.)
