I agree that there’s a lot more to horror manga than Junji Ito — check out Kazuo Umezu/Umezz with @VIZMedia’s new edition of A Drifting Classroom https://www.viz.com/drifting-classroom https://twitter.com/peepotistic/status/1391087214378033157
Another manga horror master who deserves more attention is Suehiro Maruo. We’ll be talking about his adaptation of Edogawa Rampo’s Strange Tale of Panorama Island on an upcoming episode of @mangasplaining, so get it fr @lastgaspbooks | https://lastgasp.com/products/strange-tale-of-panorama-island
And yes, as @SamuelSattin mentions, Dragon Head by Minetaro Mochizuki is a nightmare-inducing read. All 10 volumes are available now in digital fr @KodanshaManga https://kodansha.us/volume/dragon-head-10/
You know who’s kind of overdue to get picked up for publication again? Hideshi Hino’s manga is available in english, provided you’re willing for pay for very expensive OOP editions...
. @DarkHorseComics has several horror manga titles that could use more love to maybe accelerate their continued release in English, like Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service. https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/27-807/The-Kurosagi-Corpse-Delivery-Service-Omnibus-Edition-Book-Four-TPB
Another horror manga we’ve mentioned on @mangasplaining that we might feature someday is Franken Fran by Katsuhisa Kigutsu fr @gomanga | https://sevenseasentertainment.com/series/franken-fran/
Are zombie horror stories your thing? Then check out I Am a Hero by Kengo Hanazawa -- all 11 giant-sized omnibus volumes of this series is available now fr. @DarkHorseComics https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/25-142/I-Am-a-Hero-Omnibus-Volume-1-TPB
Horror manga for young girls? Yep! Kanako Inuki's stories are also another out-of-print cult fave, so if you find Presents fr. CMX Manga or School Zone fr. @DarkHorseComics, give it a look https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/12-964/School-Zone-Vol-1-TPB
Looking for horror for younger readers? Kitaro by Shigeru Mizuki fr. @dandq might be fun to try. A yokai boy and his clan have adventures in the human world that are both funny and bizarre. https://drawnandquarterly.com/blog/2017/10/kitaros-strange-adventures (also fun for grown-up readers too)
Another creepy / disturbing read is Nijigahara Holograph by Asano Inio fr. @fantagraphics - it's a 1-volume hardcover book https://www.fantagraphics.com/products/nijigahara-holograph that's also available as a @comiXology Unlimited selection. https://www.comixology.com/Nijigahara-Holograph/digital-comic/465837
I'm also a big fan of GoGo Monster by Taiyo Matsumoto fr. @VIZMedia - the hardcover edition is beautifully presented and this 1-volume story builds suspense masterfully. https://www.viz.com/gogo-monster 
Out of print (but not impossible to find), but also available in digital format is Lychee Light Club by Usamaru Furuya fr. Vertical. Pretty boys do some very ugly things in pursuit of perfect beauty https://amzn.to/33sOF2A 
There are several Osamu Tezuka manga that would be good reads for horror manga fans. A twisted take on 'the invisible man,' Alabaster is pretty dark... it's available as 2 volumes from @digitalmanga https://emanga.com/products/alabaster-vol-1?variant=32122232710
Giant, blood thirsty fish terrorizing trendy Tokyoites? No, it's not Gyo, it's Shibuya Goldfish fr. Haroumi Aoi fr. @yenpress (most of the manga is in b/w, but that color intro page is somethin' else) https://yenpress.com/9781975382155/shibuya-goldfish-vol-1/
Another semi-forgotten horror manga from @DarkHorseComics' vault is Reiko the Zombie Shop by Rei Mikamoto. Zombies, demons, high school girls and sibling rivalry make this mix of horror and humor an interesting pick https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/10-931/Reiko-the-Zombie-Shop-Vol-1-TPB
not often mentioned in lists of horror manga, but worth a look is PTSD Radio by Masaaki Nakayama. it's a digital-first release fr. @KodanshaManga but with horror being hot nowadays, maybe a print release might happen? https://kodansha.us/series/ptsd-radio/
hungry for more horror manga? take a peek at @KodanshaManga's horror selection. There's some under-the-radar picks that are worth a look https://kodansha.us/manga/browse-series/?filter_category%5B0%5D=horror
there's also some under-the-radar gems in @vizmedia's horror manga section, including Fire Punch by Tatsuki Fujimoto (Chainsaw Man), Abara by Tsutomu Nihei (Biomega), ZOM 100, a bucket list zombie romp by Haro Aso (Hyde & Closer) w/ Kotaro Takata https://www.viz.com/read/horror/section/12497/more
And also, for you Lovecraft readers, do seek out @gou_tanabe's adaptations of H.P. Lovecraft stories fr. @DarkHorseComics - they are really astoundingly gorgeous, immersive reads. https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/3002-933/H-P-Lovecrafts-At-the-Mountains-of-Madness-Volume-1-TPB
hopefully that gives you a sampling of some "beyond junji ito" horror manga picks. there's more out there, both readily available and out of print. and of course, there's new junji ito collections fr. @vizmedia that are available now or coming soon too https://www.viz.com/junji-ito 
also, juuuuust in case you haven't read Junji Ito's manga from other publishers, there's a new edition of Junji Ito's Cat diary coming soon fr. @KodanshaManga https://kodansha.us/series/junji-itos-cat-diary-yon-mu/ plus Dissolving Classroom fr.
