Id watch Death Note to get started but then when you're ready for some really scary stuff I'd suggest Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. Some other one I'd suggest would be Dead Mans Wonderland or Attack On Titan. Although Attack On Titan is more gory than scary but it is very serious.

OK some of the shows on this list might not make it in the "serious" Genre you seem to be looking for,But here is what i recommend

Death note(Classic)
Higurashi When they cry.
Steins gate( Maybe a bit to goofy but i still recommend it)
Serial  Experiments Lane( My personal favorite)
Attack on titan (Obvious)
Code Geass(Possibly)
Monster(Once again classic)
Paranoia Agent
Deadman Wonderland( Once again possibly,I prefer the subbed version)
Rin Daughters of mnemosyne(Maybe a bit to hardcore for you,Watch it by yourself)
Mirai nikki or The Future Diary (Some may argue but i say its serious)
Hellsing Ultimate(Freaking bloodbath,And another personal favorite of mine.Might have been able to tell from the layout)
Devil may cry the anime (Its not exactly good,But it is serious) 
Elfen lied( It may suck but it is...somewhat serious)  
Akira ( Watch it0
Grave of fireflies (WATCH IT NOW!!!!!!)

Attack on Titan is the obvious choice for a great serious anime. It's horrifying to see this happen to humanity, and it's just overall great to see. There's not many silly parts, and it is very logical, scientific, and sad.

Though I don't know how serious they are, since they have a few funny moments, Sword Art Online and Eden of the East are very great stories with sad tones and a serious initial tone.

Death Note is another serious anime all the way through. It's one of the best shows ever made, and it's just very well done.

Death Note, definitely. It was pretty serious, and great all-around. I would not call it the "best", but it was definitely up there.
Code Geass. Extremely serious (mostly). One of the best I have seen. 
Elfen Lied. Extremely serious, bloody, and violent. Another one of my personal favorites.
Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. Primarily serious, though the characters do slip in some jokes occasionally. 
Btooom! Well, they blow each other up with bombs, so... yeah, pretty serious. 
I'd also like to throw on Fate/Zero. Both seasons were absolutely phenomenal, and again, another one of my favorites. I believe that it was better to Fate/Stay Night in every way, so I would definitely recommend Fate/Zero. Seriously.

Another and Shiki are some of my favorite "Serious animes". They had a good story to them.

Another is about a school class, room 3-3, and about it's strange curse about the Misaki death. Shiki is about a small back woods town where strange deaths start happening after a family move into a mansion on a hill.

Another anime that I enjoyed thats not very serious, but has a rather good story would be Dangan Ronpa. It's about a group of students being accepted into this high class school for their different talents, but when they get there they are lock inside and forced to kill one another.

Hm, well I'm just going to dump my favorite anime of all time on you right off the bat. Steins;Gate. It is more light-hearted at first (although I liked getting to know the characters), people have said it's too slow in the beginning. According to most, they thing the plot picks up around episode 9. Not going to spoil anything else. Another is a sort of scary sort of mystery story. It kept me on the edge of my seat for all 12 episodes and I really felt that I understood the characters. Fate Zero is one of my favorite anime, but you have to watch Fate Stay Night first, which is not as good but still pretty great. Stay Night is a little more silly, but it stays on track mostly. Ahh shoot I just realized all of these were said except Fate. Whatever. Oh, hey how about Guilty Crown? Very underrated due to the extreme hype before it came out, and I find it decent. The first and second halves are like two different anime. The first is definitely more silly than the second half.

Monster
Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni (stick through the first episode.)
Steins:Gate  (Starts out as a  sci-fi comedy but the story gets cripplingly depressing after episode 12).
Code Geass (Excuse a few breather episodes)
Paranoia Agent
Cowboy Bebop (Aside from maybe 3 episodes)
