It's nearing Halloween. There's tons of quality horror on sale.
To start with:
The Sentinel by Jeffrey Konvitz is $1.99 at Amazon US.
The Sentinel is an under-rated book that I read years back and really enjoyed. I don't want to sell it as a classic, but it is a well done religious shocker from the '70's (when there was an abundance of religious scare stories).
I usually copy a synopsis from Amazon, but I'll write up this one myself.

A New York model gets an incredible deal on an apartment in a converted brownstone. The other tenants are kind, if strange. But there are mysterious bangings and noises at night And what's going on with the blind priest who stares out the attic window day and night?

There's a clever sequel called The Guardian. I read it, but don't remember liking it as much.
