Spooky reads recommendation

Soooooooo I was going to do this in weekly posts but I’ll be honest. I don’t have the time. So I’m just going to make it in one post. So since it will be a bit long I won’t go into detail about each book. 

So we start with the classics:

• Edgar Allan Poe 
• Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
• The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson
• The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
• Dracula by Bram Stoker
• Turn of the Screw by Henry James

Really you can read just about any King book and get spooky but here are a few favorites

• IT
• Bag of Bones
• Pet Sematary
• Carrie
• The Shining
• ‘Salem’s Lot
• Misery (which I’m currently reading)

I’ve just recently been introduced to Ray Bradburys other works (love Fahrenheit 451)

• Dark Carnival (this is an extremely hard book to find and when you do it’s ridiculously expensive)
• The Halloween Tree 
• The October Country 
• Something Wicked This Way Comes
• The Illustrated Man

These are ones I’ve read recently

• My Sister Rosa by Justine Larbalestier (comes out in November in the USA)
• Brother by Ania Ahlborn 
• The Neighbors by Ania Ahlborn

Ania Ahlborn is like a female version of Stephen King! She knows how to creep! I just recently bought the rest of her books and another one comes out in November. 

Here are some that I’ve been told by others are a good spooky read

• The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff
• The Dead House by Dawn Kurtagich
• 172 hours on the Moon by Johan Hardstad
