Heaps' own Diabolism (see above sig block) can work in a horror campaign.The following aren't even d20 but they are excellent sources for running modern horror games:Unknown Armies (can't recommend that highly enough)GURPS Horror (and you might also check out GURPS Cabal or anything else by Ken Hite)The New World of Darkness (and mortal supplements like Ghost Stories and Mysterious Places.) (EDIT: I see you want a discussion of mood and atmosphere.  Any of these three is the way to go, I would favored them in the order listed)But really, horror comes in all forms. Call of Cthulhu can be truly horrific when facing the unimaginable vastness of reality and our own insignificance.  Unknown Armies turns that on its head and see just how far someone will go to be significant, as does nWoD.  Sometimes just mood and gore can be horrific, as in zombie movies.  It all depends on what you want.</blockquote>
