"The Exorcist" by William Peter Blatty. I was scared even before seeing the movie.

only book I ever read that gave me a nightmare was It. Though I thought the monster at the end was a lame choice

I don't know if it's scary, but the one I remember being so squicked out I had to throw the book into the corner, was Gerald's Game. The 'degloving' scene.

Most paranoid immediacy I've experienced while reading. 1984, when Winston and the girl are captured.

Try anything by HP Lovecraft. He wrote some great psychological horror.

I don't know if I'd consider Lovecraft scary. Unless you have a fear of Shakespearian style prose. He wrote some good stuff, but nothing that makes you turn the hall light on to get to the bathroom.....

It depends on whether his writing sparks your imagination. His gift was writing about the "indescribable" in such a way that the reader was left to conjure most of the images himself. I personally love Lovecraft, one of my favorite writers of all time, but he is very much an acquired taste.
