ascetic_hedony has 'em, twist his arm.

Dark, beautiful stories about little Courtney who doesn't get on well with the rich kids from school but does scarily well with the things that go bump in the night.

Rating them up with Neil Gaimen's Coraline and some of the creepier Roald Dahls.

The illustrations are magical.
