#Manga
The Town of Pigs is very unsettling and gory and creepy. A village is besieged by faceless invaders who transform the villagers into pigs, and a boy tries to escape before he meets the same fate. (I now realize this could've been on the short-form prompt too.)
#Anime
Paranoia Agent. Satoshi Kon's only anime series. it's psychological horror at its finest. Also the OP is still one of my fave openings ever. So much joy and despair packed into it:
There is no trope that I hate more than people talking about "the thing" or "the plan" or something similar because they don't want to reveal it too early to the audience. Nobody talks like this when all parties talking already know the details. I can't stand how forced the dialogs are.

@To I'd have to say Hell Girl [1] for anime, it made me laugh a lot but it's definitely going for horror.
For manga I'd go with Junji Ito's works [2] , I haven't read all of them but I was going to list several and this is easier. Good starting points are Tomie, Gyo, and Uzumaki
Slightly off topic, but real good is Drill Hole in my Brain
It's part of the Faust anthology [3] of Japanese fiction and it stuck with me in a real way

Life is idyllic and unassuming in the small town of Sotoba, a simple place where everyone knows everyone. However, tragedy strikes when Megumi Shimizu, a young girl with high aspirations, unexpectedly passes away from an unnamed illness. Over the torrid summer months, as more unexplained deaths crop up around the village, the town's doctor—Toshio Ozaki—begins to suspect that something more sinister than a mere disease is at play. Toshio teams up with Natsuno Yuuki, an apathetic and aloof teenager, and siblings Kaori and Akira Tanaka, two of Megumi's friends, to unravel the dark mystery behind the deaths in Sotoba. With their combined efforts, the investigation leads them toward an eerie secret pertaining to the new family in the Kanemasa mansion. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
HOW TO SPOT A RIP CURRENT:
IT'S WHERE THE WATER LOOKS EASIEST AND SAFEST, with no waves breaking or rolling in.
NEVER ENTER THE SEA HERE.
If you get caught in a rip, DON'T FIGHT IT. You can't swim back to shore against it; you will become exhausted and drown.
Instead, SWIM ACROSS IT, parallel to shore. You'll soon be out of the current and can then easily swim back.
Boost, please, and make sure your friends and family know this when they hit the beach.
little & broken but still good
