I quite liked Darkfall but it used pretty basic Macromedia Director technology and takes a bit of getting into as you're basically given everything at once and I had to make actual, real world notes to make sense of it all
Actually untangling and getting my head around it felt pretty cool though

I'm currently playing Post Mortem, not sure it counts as full-on horror but it's definitely not a light-hearted comedy - I guess its more of a noir detective thriller but with a couple of scenes that rival Se7en for grossness - it is good!

I like the Darkfall games best, which are more atmospheric. You can get Darkfall 3 here on GoG

Another vote here for the Gabriel Knight series & Sanitarium too, both are scary and have engaging storylines

+1 for the white chamber. Awesome stuff.

It occurs to me that it may be the only horror point-n-click I've played, in fact! I recently acquired The Cat Lady but have yet to play it, and all the rest I can think of have been primarily comedy and fantasy stuff. The closest thing would be Beneath a Steel Sky, which is primarily science-fiction with a few parts that are disturbing and horror-ish. It's also a damn fine game.
Oooh a point n click recommendation? Well allow me... (clears throat) ... wait a minute, does it have to be on gog, or is ii also okay if it is very high on the wishlist? It's okay you say? Well, then, the best point n click I've ever played, and indeed the best game I've ever played, is Blade Runner. We also discussed the game a bit in a gog thread I made back in january. It's not a horror game, but it does have a very dark and moody atmosphere.

If you really want to go for horror then consider if you will Still Life. The atmosphere of the game reminded me a bit of the Johnny Depp film 'From Hell', or at least, half of the game reminded me of it.

It's not as much of a game if I have to be perfectly honest, especially as far as point n click games go, as it is an intoxicating journey into the heart of a dark, wet and gloomy cyberpunk world from where you will not want to leave... (irregardless of how shitty it must be to actually have to live there)

its an experience that will haunt you for a while
but one that will have its biggest impact the first time you play it
