Oh! Have wanted to read this and forgot! Have to go order it now so I don't forget!

Bram Stoker's Dracula of course; the Ensouled Violin by HP Blavatsky.  Another dandy one that involves a rat is The Copper Bowl by George Fielding Eliot

I also recall a series, by M. Peake, that emitted disquiet or ugly or evil vibes on nearly every page - The Gormenghast Trilogy.  Have not read yet, but ought to, is Russell Kirk's Ancestral Shadows anthology of scary yet philosophical stories.
