For a beginner, 'The Shining' by Stephen King is a great choice. It's a well - known horror novel with a simple yet effective premise of a family in a haunted hotel. The characters are relatable and the build - up of horror is gradual. Another good one is 'Pet Sematary'. It's easy to get into and the concept of the cursed burial ground is both scary and fascinating.

Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!

Sure. 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson is a classic that still holds up today. It's a great starting point as it builds tension and unease in a very psychological way. You don't have to deal with extreme gore or violence, but it still gives you that creeping sense of horror.

I would also recommend 'SOMA'. It has a thought - provoking story.

For a beginner, 'Frankenstein' is a great choice. It's not only a horror story but also a philosophical exploration of creation and responsibility. The idea of a man - made monster and his struggle in a world that rejects him is both sad and terrifying. Also, 'Carmilla' can be a good pick. It has a female vampire, which is a bit different from the more common male vampires in horror stories, and it has a very gothic and spooky feel to it.

For a beginner, 'Carmilla' by Sheridan Le Fanu is also worth reading. It was one of the early vampire stories. It tells the story of a young woman who befriends Carmilla, who turns out to be a vampire.

Richard Matheson's 'I Am Legend' could be a good choice too. It's about a man who believes he is the last human alive in a world filled with vampires. The loneliness and the constant threat from the undead create a great sense of horror and suspense.

I'd recommend 'The Lottery' by Shirley Jackson. It seems like a normal small - town story at first. The townspeople gather for an annual lottery. But as the story progresses, it becomes clear that this lottery is not what it seems, and the 'winner' is actually going to be stoned to death by the rest of the villagers. It's a great introduction to the idea that not everything is as it appears in horror stories.

Another good one is 'Pet Sematary' by Stephen King. It has a simple yet disturbing premise about a place where things that are buried come back, but not in a good way.

I also recommend 'An Artist of the Floating World'. It gives insights into Japanese society and culture through the eyes of an ageing artist. It's a relatively short novel, so it's not too much of a commitment for a beginner, but it offers a great taste of Ishiguro's work.
