Wanihiko Series:
Onryou Densetsu, Halloween Densetsu,
Jinrou Densetsu
"Vengeful Spirit Legend," "Halloween Legend," "Werewolf Legend":
Like all of Wataris books, the three volumes of the Wanihiko series can be read as separate stories. But there is a common thread running through them that also makes them into a series: exorcist Wanihiko Fudou. Halloween Densetsu is written from his point of view, but each of the other stories is narrated primarily by another character. (I originally read the volumes out of order, and was so intrigued by this technique that I was actually rather disappointed when I finally read Halloween Densetsu.)
These stories are somewhat bloodier than Wataris usual works, and contain sections that are a little more difficult to read. So it might actually be better to start with one of her other volumes for a first try. But for those interested in girls horror in general or Watari in particular, they definitely shouldnt be missed!
