Well, for starters we can say in the "Murder in the Rue Morgue" there is the horror of the brutal murders

In "MS in a Bottle" there are "zombie" sailors of the ghost ship and the they unknown horror the narrator faces in the end

"Tell-Tale Heart" about murderer who has something akin to the "Lady Macbeth Syndrome".
