Happy Sunday! It's that time of year to put together your spooky reading list for our October spooktacular. The first books that always come to mind are Frankenstein or Dracula which surprisingly defy all expectations from their movie counterparts, so if you've never read them, now would be a good time to do so. And then there are the reimagined takes on the stories which are just as good.
Frankenstein Reimagined - Dean Koontz Prodigal son was excellent which lead me to read the whole series.
Dracula Reimagined - Dacre Stoker as well as Kim Newman are great go to authors.
Spooky doesn't equal horror. I have a really hard time with blood and guts horror books or movies. I had to hide my eyes several times during the viewing of the latest series of Alien Earth. LOL! It was scary good, but oh my goodness.
Stories with emotional, pee in your pants scary, moments filled with tension that make you laugh or cry. Mind bending stories with devious and conniving characters and lots of twists and turns. Stories that make you think and go whoa, I didn't see that coming. From psychological thrillers that entertain, thrill, or shock to cozy mysteries for the faint of heart, there is a little bit of something for every one.
Seven Fairytale Retellings Transformed into Horror - The Book Eaters is currently on my list to read.
