Maybe an offbeat pick, but 'The Nao of Brown' by Glyn Dillon. It's not marketed as horror, but the protagonist's struggle with Pure-O OCD is portrayed with such intense, visual surrealism. Her violent intrusive thoughts manifest as spectral, vine-like tendrils or sudden, shocking imagery superimposed on reality. The 'supernatural' here is the internal chaos made visible. The fear is entirely psychological—the terror of your own mind betraying you—but it’s depicted with a visual language that feels eerily supernatural. It's a devastating and beautiful book.
Might be an obvious one, but much of Mike Mignola's 'Hellboy' universe, especially the spin-offs like 'B.P.R.D.' and 'Baltimore'. While there are monster fights, the best stories are steeped in folk horror and melancholy. The supernatural is ever-present, but the fear often comes from cosmic nihilism ('Hellboy: The Crooked Man'), the psychological toll of endless war ('B.P.R.D.: The Long Death'), or the obsessive, vengeful pursuit of a single man ('Baltimore'). The mood is often one of inevitable doom, which is a profound psychological weight on the characters.
Look, I'm just here for the art sometimes. A lot of these books are visually stunning in how they convey dread. Andrea Sorrentino's layouts in 'Gideon Falls', the watercolors in 'Beautiful Darkness', the scratchy ink in 'Wytches'... the psychological effect is built right into the page composition and color palette. Sometimes I'll pick up a horror comic just to see how an artist solves the problem of drawing fear. The story is a bonus.
I keep seeing 'Through the Woods' by Emily Carroll recommended, and for good reason. The art is stunning and deeply unsettling, with colors that feel oppressive. The stories play with folklore and ghostly presences, but the fear is rooted in isolation, guilt, and the things we imagine in the dark. One story, 'His Face All Red,' is a perfect example: is the brother who returns really the same person, or is the narrator's paranoia twisting reality? The supernatural possibility fuels the psychological doubt. It’s the kind of book where you’ll pause on a page just to absorb the dread in a single illustration.

Horror comics that nail both story and scares are tricky to find. A lot of modern stuff leans way too heavy on gross-out art and shock panels, but the narrative feels like an afterthought. I keep going back to older works like Junji Ito's 'Uzumaki'—the dread builds so slowly, and the town itself becomes a character. You're horrified by the imagery, but you keep reading because you need to know how this spiral obsession consumes everything. It’s methodical.
On the Western side, I'd argue 'Something Is Killing the Children' by James Tynion IV balances a tight, ongoing plot with genuinely unsettling monster designs. The terror isn't just in the gore; it’s in the community's paranoia and the protagonist’s cold pragmatism. The story hooks you with mystery, and the horror elements amplify it, not the other way around.
I tried 'The Nice House on the Lake' recently, also by Tynion, and it’s another great example. The apocalyptic scenario is terrifying, but the real dread comes from the interpersonal dynamics and the slow reveal of the rules. The art is moody and atmospheric, serving the plot, not overpowering it.
Oh, where do I even begin with freaky horror graphic novels? There's this one that still haunts me years later—'Uzumaki' by Junji Ito. It's about a town cursed by spiral patterns, and the way Ito blends body horror with existential dread is just... chef's kiss. The art is grotesquely beautiful, like you can't look away even when it makes your skin crawl. Then there's 'Black Hole' by Charles Burns, which uses surreal, ink-heavy visuals to tell a story about a sexually transmitted mutation among teens. It's less about jumpscares and more about lingering unease, like a nightmare you can't shake off.
If you want something more visceral, 'Crossed' by Garth Ennis is downright brutal—think 'The Walking Dead' but with victims driven by pure, unfiltered sadism. The gore is excessive, but it's the psychological toll that sticks with you. And for a quieter kind of terror, 'Through the Woods' by Emily Carroll is a collection of short stories with illustrations that feel like they crawled out of a folktale. Her use of color and negative space is genius; it feels like the darkness is literally swallowing the page.
