I love old horror comics, stories about zombies, Dracula, witches, ghosts, pirates and pirate-ghosts (not to be confused with ghost-pirates (ghosts that chose to be pirates) and so I am trying to find more of the darkest, creepiest, and scariest comic books of all time!? I want to hear your thoughts, so please post your choices below! (i.e. tales from the crypt, house of mystery, the walking dead, Creepy, Eerie, Scream (dark horse series))

I have to say Arkham Asylum was just creepy, and so was arkham asylum madness.

A Serious House on a Serious Earth was more creepy than anything else. Never read Madness.

@JediXMan:

Madness was creepy and just unsettling. the art was very strange.

Actually creepy? EC horror reprints Tales from the Crypt, Vault of Horror, etc.. DC had a series called "Ghosts" in the 70's Spectre comics, House of Mystery. etc.

Some of the Conan comics based on the original Howard stories (such as The Scarlet Citadel) qualify as horror stories, in my opinion.
