Horror Novels that Actually Scare Me

it's more so when i was thinking about it after i'd read certain sections or lying in bed at night like evaluating the information that i'd taken in for my last reading session that i really kind of got unnerved by it and it's one of those books that tries to like push you away as much as it tries to draw you in so it's it's just a really interesting unique experience

the book just was superb for me and my own personal tastes it just ticked every box that i have for like what my expectations of this type of horror to entail

this really plays into what my night terrors are actually about and not that this inspired my night terrors or anything like that because i was having them before i ever read this book but really when reading this i just thought like oh this is just extra creepy for me

so if you have the ring give it a read because it's bloody brilliant and if you want something that's quite spooky i'd say this is one book that i feel is very spooky

it's probably one of my all-time favorite short story collections because it is so strong like it's pretty much every story in this is an absolute banger like it's just it's really creative

it's definitely the most terrifying experience i've had while reading a book

what i love about the hunting of hill house and about shirley jackson's writing is like first of all the emphasis on mental health particularly with this novel also the way that shirley jackson can really just write an a creepy spooky atmosphere

i love the turn of this group i'm just like spooky children in an old haunted house

the invasion is so insidious that like it's just it's just really creepy and the fact that they're trying to like reclaim the earth and what they actually end up doing to the humans that they're destroying it's so good it's so messed up and there's a couple of scenes in it that are just really haunting

but like what i love about this is the foreshadowing i love the titles of the chapters the use of imagery in this book is amazing
