Why do people read Horror? In general, because they enjoy the thrill of being scared or the sense of terror or dread that builds as they read. In Horror, it’s the combination of the characters and the mood or atmosphere of the story that creates the sense fear, repulsion or terror in the reader. Horror can cross into other genre as well: Science Fiction/Horror or Mystery/Horror. Gather a few of your favorites and join us for a great discussion.
There are many horror "best of" lists on the internet, such as https://bookriot.com/best-horror-books-of-the-decade/
