      @@karybooks I’d recommend trying Darcy Coates. She’s known for “cosy horror”. Most of her novels are about hauntings. She’s great for scares without being too horrifying. Just avoid Parasite (which gets gruesome at points). The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson is a great classic with creepy atmosphere and not gruesome at all. If you don’t mind reading books with a young target audience, I recommend the Lockwood and Co. series by Jonathon Stroud.

    Hi Jordaline, the scariest book I've read all year was How To Run Your Home Without Help by Kay Smallshaw, a non-fiction title about housework in the 50s when the English housewife had to make do without servants. For someone like me who thinks ironing is a punishment straight from hell, this book was terrifying, an endless cycle of cleaning, cooking, washing, baby-feeding, polishing everything from top to bottom, etc. I broke out in cold sweats reading this thing.

    Not sure what happens at the end of spine shivers… but the beginning premise is kinda what happens in the horror movie amusement 2008. Though the overall arching story with that one is a kid is seeking revenge on these girls who made fun of him when he was little. But one of the stories within the movie is a teenager is babysitting these kids and she was asking about the really big clown in the chair and the person was like what are you talking about.
