Everything You Need by Michael Marshall Smith

Somehow it didn't quite work for me.
But if you like straightforward horror you might like it — reminds me of younger Stephen King and similar authors. Maybe that's a problem — it's published in 2013, but "The Seventeenth Kind" wouldn't be out of place in 1980 or earlier.

And some of them are just too much like responses in /r/WritingPrompts (e.g. "Unbelief").
