    I need some new suggestions~ I just got done watching "Another". Let me say that was a really super amazing anime <3.. Also finished Mirai Nikki. Not really a horror or mystery but if you know any animes like that please tell me~! Also any Yandere animes would be nice~

    Higurashi no Naku Koro ni <------ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (plus the other higurashi series, yandere)
    Gantz
    Deadman Wonderland - AMAZING!!
    Umineko no Naku Koro ni (ok..)
    School Days <---- also highly recommended, yandere
    Liar Game (manga)
    Death Note (obviously)
    Blood+
    Elfen Lied
    Le Portrait de Petit Cossette (very strange and extreme, more artistic and thought-provoking)
    Darker than Black (literally the most amazing thing ever, more action, superpower but strong mystery and some horror themes)

    What is Another about?

    Out to everyone
    Urm Fate/Stay Night is a fighting/mystery one
    As above Higurashi no naku koro ni is one of the best horror/mystery animes i have ever seen..
    Um Shikabane Hime is another Horror/Mystery type Anime
    Also High school of the dead is a good horror one.

    I'm going to third Higurashi and Umineko, Higurashi is the batter of the two.

    I'll add Ghost Hound and Ghost Hunt to the list, also possibly Shiki might work though I haven't seen it.

    Elfen Lied (unforgettable story)

    High School of the Dead (a bit of a cliffhanger in the end, but the whole thing was good)

    I wouldn't really recommend School Days; the only part that had anything close to horror was the ending. (Nice boat!) The rest of the anime is kinda meh.

    Higurashi is a really great horror/mystery. But in order to actually get it, you have to endure the repeats and watch Kai (second season). It's really good and I highly recommend it. Higurashi Rei ("third season") and...Kira ("fourth season")...are OVAs that aren't really required.

    High School of the Dead is another good one, but if you aren't a fan of fan service I wouldn't watch it. If you can ignore it, it's pretty good.

    Well, I haven't watched much anime, but I have watched Higurashi and Umineko No Naku Kori Ni and they're probably my favorite animes! Sucks that they discontinued Umineko (as far as I know).

    But yeah, those two are great.
