There are many reasons he wrote dark and chilling stories and poems. The main reasons though, he had a very rough upbringing and he was mentally ill and on several drugs as well as being an alcoholic. But, if you see things like I do, you find the sheer beauty in the little picture of the big image that's gruesome.
