Older gothic novels are a treasure trove. 'The Monk' by Matthew Lewis has multiple narratives and characters whose perceptions are skewed by lust, religious hypocrisy, and ambition. Ambrosio's fall from grace is a combination of manipulation and his own hidden desires, and the line between supernatural temptation and human corruption is deliciously blurred. The unreliability comes from the characters' own vices coloring their interpretation of events, making you question every seemingly miraculous or demonic intervention.

หนังสือเล่มโปรด: I'm the serial killer's next target

Korean webtoons have been diving into this too. 'Bastard' (by Carnby Kim and Youngchan Hwang) is a thriller about a boy whose father is a serial killer. The son's narration is constantly under pressure—he has to appear normal, help his father, and protect potential victims. His internal monologue is a mix of fear, calculation, and moral desperation. The horror comes from being inside the mind of someone living a double life, where any slip could mean death. The black-and-white art amplifies the stark moral confusion.

Has anyone mentioned 'The Luminous Dead' by Caitlin Starling? It's a sci-fi horror novel set in a cave system, with just two characters: Gyre, the caver, and Em, her handler in her ear. Gyre's perception is immediately questionable due to the psychological stress, isolation, and the drugs Em administers to keep her going. Em is also hiding crucial information. You can't trust what Gyre sees, hears, or remembers. The claustrophobia is unbearable because the very narrative is untrustworthy, mirroring the protagonist's disorientation.

For a fresh, mind-bending sci-fi horror take, 'Blindsight' by Peter Watts fits. It's not a traditional unreliable narrator in the 'lying' sense, but the narrative is filtered through the perspective of Siri Keeton, a man whose corpus callosum was severed, making him a perfect, dispassionate observer. But is he? The horror of first contact is filtered through his unique neurology, and you're constantly questioning if his interpretations of alien behavior are accurate or a profound failure of human understanding. It's cerebral and deeply terrifying.

I see a lot of contemporary picks, but let's go back to Edgar Allan Poe. 'The Tell-Tale Heart' is a short story, but it's a perfect capsule of unreliable narration. The narrator insists he is calm and sane while describing a meticulously planned murder motivated by a bizarre obsession with an old man's 'vulture eye.' His descent into madness, marked by the sound of the beating heart, is all filtered through his own perception. You are inside the mind of a psychotic break, and the horror is in being convinced by his logic right up until it collapses.
