It’s finally October and my favorite season of the year. Halloween will be upon us so if you are a horror fan who likes to binge scary movies or television series, here are five novels guaranteed to get you ready for the Halloween season. But just remember that these stories aren’t for the faint of heart and a lot of them deal with heavy themes so tread carefully.
#5 The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson

Girl, this house is haunted by some thick spirits. Get the heck out.

We never truly know anyone, do we? We never truly know our neighbors. In fact, they could be in a satan worshipping cult. But that never happens? Right?
#3 The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty
Don’t play with Ouija boards. Just don’t. That is all.
#2 Misery by Stephen King

Does fame really mean that much when one of your fans didn’t like your ending? Isn’t it only right that they hold you hostage, break your ankles and cut off body parts until you write a new one?
#1 Coraline by Neil Gaiman

Our lives may not be perfect but would you trade your eyes to stay in a “perfect” world? You’d need buttons of course, as replacements. At least you can choose what color they are. They can be pink, vermilion, or chartreuse. But be careful, you might make Mother jealous.
