I’ve been on a big creepy/horror/thriller book streak recently and would love to hear some more recommendations. Some of the ones I’ve read and enjoyed so far are:

  • We Have Always Lived in the Castle - Shirley Jackson
  • The Haunting of Hill House - Shirley Jackson
  • Ghost Eaters - Clay McLeod Clay
  • The Luminous Dead - Caitlin Starling
  • The Hollow Places - T. Kingfisher
  • The Twisted Ones - T. Kingfisher
  • The Lost Village - Camilla Sten
  • Sour Candy - Kealan Patrick Burke

Small Angels by Lauren Owen was excellent. The sense of pervasive dread was really palpable while reading. One of my favorite reads in the last few years.

Oh this one sounds great! Definitely going to check it out. Love it when a book can capture that feeling of dread and anxiety well.
