a gal always needs to read at least one good horror during spooky season 🎃

Spooky season is the perfect time to dive into horror books that send shivers down your spine and keep you hooked all night. When curating my Halloween reading list, I always look out for books that combine classic scares with modern twists, much like Grady Hendrix's "My Best Friend's Exorcism," which has been praised for its unique blend of 80s nostalgia and terrifying supernatural elements. Another author I love is Paul Tremblay, whose works capture twenty-first-century paranoia and dread, making his novels perfect for readers who enjoy psychological thrillers along with their horror. One thing I've learned through years of diving into horror is that the best stories often blend emotional depth with suspense. For example, "My Best Friend's Exorcism" not only features an intense exorcism storyline but also explores friendship and trust in a way that resonates deeply. If you enjoy haunted settings full of atmosphere, consider novels like Isabel Cañas's "The Hacienda," which intertwines hauntings, forbidden love, and incantations transporting readers to eerie yet beautiful realms. As a regular horror reader, I also recommend exploring diverse styles, including Japanese gothic tales like those by Kylie Lee Baker that bring a fresh, chilling perspective rooted in cultural folklore. For those who like a mix of history and horror, Erik Larson's "Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America" delivers a gripping combination of true events with eerie undertones. When putting together a spooky TBR, balance your reading with a variety of horror subgenres — from supernatural hauntings and exorcisms to psychological dread and historical chills. This diversity enhances the overall experience and keeps the reading journey thrilling. I keep a list of my favorites handy, tagging them with hashtags like #horrorbooks and #spookyseason for easy reference. Happy haunting and happy reading!
