Not on my list as I read them already but Summer of the Beast by Michael Burns and Stolen Tongues by Felix Blackwell are gory and creepy respectively.
Summer of the Beast is a story of military medical experiments run amok and the fall out when things inevitably escape. Two local homicide detectives are then dealing with a violent serial killer. It's a two part series and the second book can be read as a standalone but isn't very satisfying.
Stolen Tongues is good creepy story of a seemingly ordinary cabin and a romantic get away weekend gone wrong. Our happy couple enters the cabin and the weirdness begins. Cries of people and screams of animals. Whispers on the edge of being just loud enough to make out. And a dark shadow coming closer and closer to the cabin. I really enjoyed this one and it has a part two also but haven't read that one yet.
An honorable mention for an October read is Tales from the Gas Station by Jack Townsend. It's a 4ish part series thats full of everything you could want. A suicide murder cult living in the woods. The hand plants and all those creepy gnomes. A energy vortex below the workplace. Mutated raccoons mysterious people and great friends. You'll find that and more at the Gas Station. Honestly it's like Gravity Falls/Scooby-doo but for adults. It's not a scary series but it's a fun series.
