I feel the same way. Defining exactly what is and what isn't horror can be a slippery slope, but I would leave those Lansdale titles off my list of favorite books in the genre. As much as I love them.

Most of my favorites are either dark fantasy or thriller/suspense. For pure horror, I tend to gravitate toward short stories or novellas.

Me, I love settling in with a big, fat, looong novel. Summer of Night, It, Swan Song, The Fireman. For me, nothing is better.

For what it's worth, and subject to change tomorrow:
The Passage by Justin Cronin (for the sake of a top 10 list I choose the first book; the other two are just as good IMO)
The Stand by Stephen King (though I much prefer the original 1978 edition than the 1990 re-release)
Swan Song by Robert McCammon
Ghost Story by Peter Straub
The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty
The Terror by Dan Simmons
I am Legend by Richard Matheson
The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum (by far the most disturbing book on this list)
NOS4A2 by Joe Hill
Weaveworld by Clive Barker
