List of Horror authors required

[Brian G Turner]

I've got some good sources for bibliographies for science fiction and fantasy authors - but I wish to include horror authors in my final list, and thus chase down their bibliographies.

I'd therefore like to compile a comprehensive list of horror authors, so that I can chase down their bibliographies for my final awe-inspiring collection.

I'll start:

Clive Barker
HP Lovecraft
August Derleth
Arthur Machen
Brian Lumley
Edger Allan Poe
Anne Rice


Others, please?
