Sleepers was pretty disturbing to teenage me.

Disturbing:
Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany, 1944-1947
Just brutal what the German civilians experienced at the closing months of the war. I’m sure other civilians experienced the same in other countries.

Not nearly as scary as many others have listed but when I read The Watchers Koontz I was actually afraid at times.
Also, Red Dragon. That book had me not wanting to take trash out at night.

Scariest probably Salem’s Lot
I’m going to have to second Salem’s Lot.. I was straight up terrified reading some of that and actually had to get up and check to make sure the window in our room was locked lol.

I just finished If you Tell by Greg Olsen
It went into very graphic detail constantly of how Shelly Knotek would abuse and torture her kids. It was painful to read

First 70 pages of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, especially when he’s crawling out the window and down the castle wall.

Not the book overall, but the conclusion of the Aaron Jastrow storyline in War and Remembrance shook me pretty good, even though I anticipated it. Perfect for the subject matter, though.

So far as fiction, Dracula. Just pick up the book and read it cold without any foreword or introduction.
Agree with the previous poster that the first section of the book is almost stand alone perfect. It's not especially gruesome compared to modern horror, but instead, disturbingly sinister. The emerging reality of the situation dawns on the reader just ahead of the narrater, who though naive, is very relatable compared to a typical Friday the 13th movie victim.

Yep, good summary. Still can’t get that scene out of my mind. Haunting.

There were passages in American Psycho that made me squirm a little.

Acceleration by Graham McNamee
It’s a bit of a younger adult novel, but 12 year old me thought it was pretty whack, especially the last couple chapters.
Plot synopsis from GoodReads:
Here it is. Enjoy!

Plot synopsis from GoodReads:
quote:
It’s a hot, hot summer, and in the depths of the Toronto Transit Authority’s Lost and Found, 17-year-old Duncan is cataloging lost things and sifting through accumulated junk. And between Jacob, the cranky old man who runs the place, and the endless dusty boxes overflowing with stuff no one will ever claim, Duncan’s just about had enough. Then he finds a little leather book. It’s a diary filled with the dark and dirty secrets of a twisted mind, a serial killer stalking his prey in the subway. And Duncan can’t make himself stop reading. What would you do with a book like that? How far would you go to catch a madman? And what if time was running out. . . .
Here it is. Enjoy!

100%! Of course, I think I was 14 when I read it. I was always imagining vampires outside the window begging to be let in!

I was about that age or younger and Salem's Lot scared me too.

Easily, The Library at Mount Char. I’m a little embarrassed to confess I finished it.

Penpal by Dathan (forget last name) was a little fricked up and I think it's marketed as a young-adult book.
