Great list of books! I put many in my Goodreads "want to read" list. I'm a huge Clive Barker fan, one I would recommend for you is his Weaveworld. It's probably my favorite of all of his books due to his writing being incredible with world building, amazing characters & taking the reader on an epic journey. Thanks for all the recommendations!

I know those feelings. Oddly, there are a few stories that got me going back listening to on something like audible or re-reading. Certain books I feel like I read every year or two.

I actually did the same thing with Slade House as I loved that reading experience so much that I wanted to invest in a physical copy to reread. Definitely an all-time favorite. I ended up buying an ebook of The Creeper because that just sounds like too much fun! I’d say Imaginary Friend and How to Sell a Haunted House were my favorite horror novels from 2023

Glad you loved The Whistling. It ended up on my top five list in 2022. Hell House and The Creeper is on my tbr since I recently bought them.❤

I love horror books that incorporate Hispanic culture

[billkeon]

Brother by Alborn and Kin by Burke are two of my all time favourites. I’ve read all of Ahlborn’s books…she’s so great

[LiteraryStoner]

I loved Brother to! It was so creepy and like a character study.

[thomascopley]

Loved hell house so much you should check out the Amityville horror it's great too

[Jeff-iegj]

You mentioned that Hell House brought up misogyny. What part are you referring to?

[happyhauntslibrary]

I have been meaning to read Mary and Hellbound Heart for so long!!! And I hated Brother… it was too depressing for me 😂😂😂

[madlynx]

I see on your shelf Song Of Kali by Dan Simmons. That book disturbed me. Your thoughts?

[jessicaarend]

Have you seen the show From? It sounds just like the plot of The Creeper!

[SilentObserver]

I read Brother this year and loved it, it was like watching a car crash. Seed was also pretty good. Some elements could have been stronger, but an interesting read.

I’ve never been a massive fan of short stories but The Books of Blood by Clive Barker has some great stories. The Yattering and Jack was one of my favourites.
