Uzumaki would've been the goat of horror anime had it been released
That being said, for whatever reason, horror anime really just doesn't seem to hit the same as live action stuff. Lots of reliance on shock value (esp. gore).
That being said these are the ones I've enjoyed in or adjacent to the genre: Shiki, Berserk, Parasyte, Devilman Crybaby, Ghost Hound, From the New World
Junji Ito's horror relies too much on his style, which is really hard to animate beause it is so detailed and good. I'm skeptical any adaptation would actually end up a good horror experience

Wait. Did they cancel that Uzumaki anime ? That seemed to have a really cool artstyle.
It’s just been delayed indefinitely
Devilman crybaby is such a good show, and definitely gets really upsetting and horror-like at points.

Oh good taste. I feel like Chainsaw Man is close to Devilman Crybaby (and End of Evangelion too) with some really awesome scary or haunting moments
