For horror short stories I would definitely recommend:

Looking for Jake by China Mieville for a short-but-sweet compilation of urban horror/fantasy (some of the stories being very, very creepy)

and

Skeleton Crew by Stephen King, which I think is his best collection of short stories, especially as it includes The Mist and The Raft, two of the scariest things he's ever written, and The Jaunt and Beachworld, two of his best sci-fi stories (which also verge into horror territory).
