Is there something out there more creepy than a beloved bone china doll developing sinister sentience and moving on its own? Probably, but we don't want to find out what.
Mary Downing Hahn

$9.28
Mary Downing Hahn is a classic ghost story writer in middle-grade fiction. You're guaranteed a chill and thrill with any book by Hahn, but this is one of our favorites.

Spooky Season wouldn't be complete without the existential dread of a good vampire story. Coldest Girl in Coldtown is one of the best (and by best we mean deliciously horrifying).
Stephanie Perkins

That's nice. It can be their house now.
Carrie Ryan

$11.15
A classic young adult horror novel. Honestly? The title is scary enough for me.
Adam Cesare

Judging by the title, this one is going to be too scary for us. We'll hide and you can tell us about it when it's over. :)
