I would strongly recommend Scott Jones' novel Stonefish, which draws explicitly from gnostic philosophy, along with cosmic horror, Philip Dick-style metaphysics, and Fort/Keel high weirdness.
Damian Murphy is a practitioner, although for the most part, I'd hesitate to label his works as horror.Karim Ghahwagi as well. and perhaps Louis Marvick (at least his excellent book The Star Ushak)
Nameless by Grant Morrison, of course. And his series The Invisibles.

and literary horror is becoming more common. This may be a sub-subgenre within literary horror, and may even become a fully fledged subgenre in coming years.
I'd like to have a thread here where we can share anything and everything related to 'Gnosis' in horror and 'Gnostic Horror' as each of us see it.
