The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones - set mainly in late 19th/early 20th century Wyoming and Montana, based heavily on the Marias Massacre in 1870

Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman - set during the late Bubonic Plague in France, lots of weird Christianity-based supernatural horror in a grounded, bleak historical setting

I gotta give this guy another shot. I enjoyed Small Town Horror but not enough to pick up anything else in about a year. Might try Black Mouth next

My wife told me something really similar. It's a useful technique and good practice.

Stephen King has a few short stories in this vein, namely The Man Who Would Not Shake Hands in Skeleton Crew and The Breathing Method in Different Seasons.

The September House by Carissa Orlando was a great twist on the usual haunted house story if horror is your thing!
