Oh, no way you're a loser.

"American Gods" by Neil Gaiman is a pretty dark book; not scary, but intense.

Anything by Stephen King, especially the earlier stuff like "Carrie" and "'Salem's Lot"

"The Crying of Lot 49" by Thomas Pynchon (Classic conspiracy-theory novel)

"I Am the Cheese" by Robert Cormier (very tightly plotted mystery, with an untrustworthy narrator)

Anything by Donald Westlake (master mystery writer)

A good funny book, with some mystery and fantasy elements, is "The Neddiad" by Daniel Pinkwater. Lots of great little in-jokes.

There's a series called "Sweep" by Cate Tiernan that's pretty good. It's not too scary, but I still recommend it.

Another good one is part of a series, too. The first book is called "Blue is for Nightmares" and the series is by Laurie Faria Stolarz. It was definitely scary for me, but I get scared easily, so I don't know if it will be the same for you. =]

I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave one in my inbox!
