Also, The Conjuring is proof that a movie doesn't need to have gore, sex or profanity to be rated R.

So by your own admission, a PG-13 horror movie can be good so there really shouldnt be a reason to avoid them. I think you have other problems with those movies besides them being PG-13. Seems like a silly reason to me to not watch a movie.
