An interesting list. I have read six out of ten and DNF House of Leaves.

An excellent video Benjamin! Let The Right One In is phenomenal and would definitely make my list. I highly recommend the movies. There are a number of these I have not yet read.

Hi Benjamin! I enjoyed hearing your list. I have read most of these but I definitely need to read The Fisherman. I have heard such good things. Salem's Lot is my favorite King book too!! I read it for the first time 46 years ago. 😮 Good luck with your channel! Yes, I subscribed. 🤗

Great list, I have so many of these on my TBR and now I’m even more excited. I’m reading The Fisherman next. I love both Let The Right One In and Let Me In so I guess I need to read the book too.

Hi thanks for sharing some horror books you like. I can’t say I’ve ever really read horror. Maybe soft horror more gothic style is as close as I’ve got. 🤣 I do like to challenge myself see if I can expand my horizons. Dark Matter sounds really good, I’ll have to book mark that! I don’t think I’m into extreme blood guts gore and shock factor -thrashertype of horror that’s what I thought the genre was. Interesting 🤔

Oh shit! Mexican Gothic!! I loved that book!! The body horror so gross!! First introduction that sort of story. Body horror. I agree it was jam packed with multi layered with history and mystery. Plotting so well done!

You’ve convinced me to give Stephen King another shot. And I forgot I did read House of Leaves. Yes it got I’m under my skin it’s hard to talk about! I get chills just thinking about it. 🤣
