Sorry for resurrecting this comment you probably forgot you left, but I think animal horror could really work in its own way. Animals can be scary. They have a chillingly different way of seeing the world as humans are the original 'force that can't be reasoned with' which, I think, inspired that theme in more surreal less grounded horror. Putting, like, a wolf in your house speaks to several visceral levels of human fear that could be tapped for very high rewards as a horror writer. Sure it's not the easiest thing to write about, but the potential is there if you do it right.
