Neither do I, but I recently finished "A sorceress comes to call" by T.Kingfisher, which is pretty dark, and very, very good. Her "A house with good bones" was also really good, with horror that starts with small, everyday things being wrong (why has Mom painted the house
beige? She always loved strong colours!) and escalating slowly. I've liked her fantasy, and am planning to check out more of her horror.
I've also been thinking of reading Alyssa Cole's "When noone is watching", a thriller about gentrification. Her "One of us knows" has that mix of everyday and supernatural horror that I like. The protagonist is a person with multiple personalities. The main personality has been dormant for several years, and wakes up in 2020, standing on a pier, about to start a job on a remote island that none of the personalities remember applying for. And why does she carry several surgical masks in her pockets?
