Short horror fiction: An initial personal list

I posted the below list on the Facebook Group Boiled Bones, which focuses on short horror fiction.

It is written in imitation of a recent FB trend listing one's favorite films.

The useful thing about making such a list is that it forces the reader to dig down and work with the sheer volume of short fiction already read.
