I’m not a huge manga fan myself, so I’ll share the only one that’s managed to make enough of an impression for me to read multiple works, and that’s horror author Junji Ito.
He’s usually got some disturbing, but unique and fairly talented art. Some of his stuff veers more towards ghost story, some dreamishly weird, and some straight up Cronenberg shit. His magnum opus “Uzumaki” is all three.
If you feel like giving it a chance, here’s The Enigma of Amigara Fault, a shorter, tamer work that’s a fairly common intro to his stuff.

Literally was going to recommend Ito… Shit is so good.
The recent manga versions of H.P. Lovecraft’s work have been cool too (with amazing cover art).
Also someone who generally doesn’t enjoy anime/manga, but there’s some out there that I like.
