Can you recommend a few best horror stories for beginners?

Sure. 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson is a great start. It's not overly gory but creates a really spooky atmosphere. You'll be on the edge of your seat as you follow the characters in the supposedly haunted house.

Sure. 'Uzumaki' is a good start. It has relatively simple yet very disturbing horror concepts that are easy to follow. The art is really eye - catching and helps new readers get into the horror genre. Another one could be 'Locke & Key'. It has an engaging story with elements of mystery and horror that are not too overwhelming for beginners.

For beginners, I'd recommend 'Uzumaki'. Although it has some really disturbing elements, the art is so captivating that it can draw you in. The horror is more on the psychological side which can be a good entry point. '30 Days of Night' is also a good pick. It has a simple premise - vampires attacking a town during a long night - that's easy to understand. And the action - horror aspect can be exciting for new readers. Also, 'Hellboy' is a good choice. It has a likable protagonist and while it has horror elements, it also has elements of adventure and mystery.

Sure. 'The Monkey's Paw' is a great start. It's a short story with a simple but very effective horror concept. A family gets a magical paw that can grant wishes, but every wish comes with a horrible price. 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow' is also suitable. The headless horseman is a well - known horror figure, and the story has a spooky, atmospheric setting. And 'The Canterville Ghost' which combines humor with horror in a story about a ghost that is trying to haunt a family but often fails comically at first.

A great beginner - friendly horror story is 'The Yellow Wallpaper'. It's a psychological horror about a woman who slowly descends into madness while being confined in a room with the eponymous wallpaper. It's more about the build - up of psychological terror rather than extreme scares.

Sure. 'The Doctor's Secret Love' is a great start. It has a simple yet engaging plot that is easy to follow. It's a story about a doctor who has a secret love affair, and the way Jonaxx unfolds the story is really interesting.

Roald Dahl's 'The Witches' is another good option. It's a bit more on the lighter side of horror but still has its spooky moments. The story is about a boy who discovers the existence of witches and has to stop their evil plan to turn all children into mice. It has Dahl's signature dark humor and engaging storytelling.

A more modern option could be 'The Conjuring' series tie - in novel. It has a clear story line about a family being haunted by a malevolent spirit. The scares are there from the beginning, and it's a good introduction to the horror genre as it has elements of both the supernatural and psychological horror.

For beginners, 'The Call of Cthulhu' is a great start. It's very well - known and has a simple enough plot to follow while still being full of that eldritch horror. It gives a good taste of the genre with its dark and mysterious elements. Another good one is 'The Colour Out of Space' as it is relatively short and easy to understand, but still manages to create a sense of unease and horror.

For beginners, 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker is a great start. The vampire Dracula is an iconic creature, and Stoker's writing creates a spooky atmosphere. It's a great introduction to the horror genre with a classic creature.
