As Halloween approaches I can’t help but
reminisce about the creepiest books I’ve read over the last ten years. These
books left me in such a horrified state, that until this day, I still remember
the effect they had on me. Don’t get me wrong, but some people think scary is slashers
and serial killers. The thing that really leaves me sleepless is not from this
world. These novels are so soul chilling, they still creeps me out. Don’t
believe me? Give them a try. You’ll think twice about walking into a dark room
at night. Happy Halloween and Cheers, Garrard Hayes
The Throne of Bones by Brian McNaughton
I’ve never read anything like it before or
since. A dark fantasy world where nothing is as it seems. An old town with a
large cemetery that is unable to contain the evil that lives within its walls. Enough
ghouls, monsters and zealots to satisfy the most callused Horror fan.
The Elementals by Michael McDowel
A southern family goes to the Alabama Gulf shore
to spend a relaxing summer at a beautiful beachfront retreat. Something old and
dark is living and it doesn’t want to leave.
Song of Kali by Dan Simmons
A reporter from America takes his family
with him to India to investigate a dead poet that’s stared writing again.
Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill
An aging rock star buys a dead man’s suit
on Ebay.
