Don't know if these would qualify as entries, but here are a couple of authentically nonexistent titles:
Preston and the Starving Shadows Preston and the Upside-down Face Preston and the Ghost of the Gourd Preston and the Laughing This Preston and the Twitching That
They're all the ouvre of an imaginary children's writer named Alice (nolastnamegiven) from a Thomas Ligotti story called "Alice's Last Adventure," -- one of the creepiest horror stories I've ever read and the only one I've ever encountered that is actually about writing children's books.
It's one of those stories that really has to be read twice to be appreciated. If you can, check it out. You might enjoy it.
