Slaughterhouse 5 Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, books from "Another Fine Myth" (a series by Robert Asprin (nobody knows it)). I like authors like George Orwell, Kurt Vonnegut and Mark Twain. Honestly though, I prefer short stories and books with kinda macabre poetry like Tim Burton's Melancholy Death of Oisterboy and Shel Silverstien's Where the Sidewalk Ends (don't listen to the audio book of Shel Silverstien... he sounds really creepy)
Jim Henson, Penn and Teller, Vincent Price, Gallagher, and Mickey Rourke's character from Sin City
