I suggest House of Leaves

House of Leaves

Without spoiling the plot, there are three nested stories, of which the core is about the finding of a set of documents and videos about a house that becomes slightly longer on the inside than the outside, and that 'grows' an extra door, where none were before. Opening the door sometimes leads to the next room, and sometimes to a dark, empty, long, tunnel. The homeowner, who happens to be a well-known explorer, sees the tunnel as a unmissable challenge, and chooses to go inside...

The entire book is typeset to convey the sense of claustrophobia, confusion, and other-worldliness of the situation, and it does an excellent job. One of my favourite chilling quotes from the book (as I recall) relates to the total lack of whimsy - everything whimsical has left... And yet, wrapped around this horrible place there is a really warm love story between the explorer and his family, and around that a beatnik tattoos drugs rock and roll story, and around that the ramblings of a blind man...

I should probably also add that there are no real Boo! moments either, nor teeth, claws, dead bodies or anything else that is traditionally part of a horror story.

It's the best phychological thriller/horror I have read, and really gave me nightmares. Unfortunately because it is about homes and doors it's not easy to feel 'safe' under your duvet in your bedroom with all the lights on, which is my standard tried and tested bogeyman deterrent. I read this in two coats, on a park bench, in a VERY open space.
