I'm looking for some book suggestions. I love what I've come to think of as mood books- books which are usually set in an isolated area, creating an overall eerie mood. The Shining is a great example of this. The story itself is great, but the setting (and the mood it creates) is as much a reason to draw you into the book and keep you reading.
Other books like this are "Dark Matter" by Michelle Paver, "A Winter Haunting" by Dan Simmons and "The Woman in Black" by Susan Hill. All have remote, isolated settings that creates a despondent mood, perfect for a horror story.
Any recommendations for books that fit this mold?
