Tolstoy's novel the death of Ivan Ilyich. Not really a thriller, but the way he describes the process of dying is quite disturbing.
Have you seen the movie 'Ivans XTC'? It's based on 'The death of Ivan Ilyich'. It's an amazing film.
This was the only time i recall having to put a book down due to being overwhelmed. Tolstoy really believed in 'affecting' people. My personal favourite writer (but definately not a horror writer!)
it wasnt so scary, but the creepiest/suspenseful book i've read is "Intensity" by dean Koontz. I've never liked any of his other books though.
that was really good, and really creepy
I think The Shining scared me the most when I read it, I remember being bothered a couple of times

Tolstoy rocks... as does that novel... death illustrated in a most negative way...it did suck me into a hole.. terrifying in a very real sense...
