I've found I've really enjoyed the horror manga from junji ito! he has some really scary but cool stories that are definitely worth a read. For something to watch maybe blood-c, from what I've heard it's really graphic and scary so it'll definitely be worth a watch!

Not sure if my favs are horrors but they're definitely on the creepier side


- Danganronpa

- Blood + (it's even better than blood c!)

- Mahou Shoujo Site (more of a dark magic a girl thing)

You should watch RIN: Daughters of Mnemosyne. It is a very violent anime but it does have sexual themes, just so you know

most people don't consider it horror, but "flowers of evil" always gets under my skin, especially the outro music.

Junji Ito's collection is a horror series where each episode is a different story, I've read his books and they're pretty good.

Yamishibai

Yamishibai is pretty good, more like short stories about japanese urban legends.

the junji-ito collection is a good one!! or parasyte is good, but that's more body horror than actually scary (to me at least I've seen a lot of people who were scared of it)

I just finished the first vol of Monster, and ooh it’s too good, it’s more psychological thriller but enjoyable nonetheless

Serial Experiment Lain is great, but its more psychological horror than traditional spooky stuff

This one counts more as a psychological drama but it has its elements of horror. The animation of Aku no Hana might be a deal-breaker for some but I would still recommend it because I think its purpose is to make the audience uncomfortable.
