I was curious if Daddy Dom's or Littles like reading various genres of dark, creepy, macabre disturbing books & if you can recommend me books? 

I like horror, extreme horror, erotic horror, paranormal romance, true crime, historical, horror related poetry, Manga, graphic novels. 

Authors I like: Clive Barker, Kim Newman, Bram Stoker.

I haven't, but I know who the author is. 

I like various Japanese authors like Koji Suzuki, Ryu Murakami.

He wrote the books Audition (the Japanese film Audition is based on the book) In the Miso Soup & other books.

Goodreads, Librarything are a good websites for book recommendations, book reviews.

Ah, gotcha. I've read/seen Audition before. I haven't read the others though

I forgot to say about the book Piercing as well which has also been adapted into a weird film which is based on the book.

Audition is my favourite :)

I'm a big horror fan, but my taste isn't for everyone. Here's a few recs:

We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson - one of my favorite books. Short, haunting, and moody.

Skullface Boy by Chad Lutzke - an unusual coming of age story that balances dark and light really well. I've liked everything I've read from him, and they usually have somewhat hopeful endings.

Until the Sun by Chandler Morrison - this is a polarizing extreme horror author, but I think this book is an interesting take on vampires.

Might be a different kind of dark but I enjoy Steinbeck for my dark books

Some might enjoy what's known as the Gormenghast Trilogy by Mervyn Peake, consisting of

Titus Groan

Gormenghast

Titus Alone

I just recently downloaded the Gormenghast Trilogy! I still need to read it, but this gives me some motivation to move it up on my TBR list.
