I always like to pick up a few creepy books for this time of year- ones that will keep me up late, and give me the heebie jeebies. Just like my love for horror movies- good creepy books are the kind that tend to really suck me in and keep me binge-reading until I finish. I put together a list of a few creepy books that you can grab if you need a good scare this Halloween season.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve read these books over the past couple of years, so I don\u2019t remember exactly how they are all the way through- but I do know that all of them creeped me out enough to stand out amongst the hoards of books I read each year.<\/p>\n

Creepy Books<\/h4>\n

I read Dear Mr. M<\/a> because I saw that it was recommended by Stephen King- and I mean, he is the King when it comes to giving me the creeps. It\u2019s not really as \u2018scary\u2019 as it is a thriller. But, the books that could really happen are the ones that scare me the most. It had me guessing til the end, and that is saying something. <\/p>\n

In a Dark, Dark Wood<\/a> was a little suspense, peppered with that \u201cwhodunit\u2019 air of mystery. It was confusing at parts, and made me angry at others- but it was another one that surprised me at the end.<\/p>\n

The Grip of It is<\/a> one of those just creepy crawly, gives you the heebie-jeebie, not sure you want to keep reading types of books. A little confusing, and I can\u2019t say I loved the ending. But, still creepy enough to make the list. <\/p>\n

What I liked about The House on Foster Hill<\/a> is that it\u2019s from Bethany House Publishers- whom you know I love. So, it\u2019s a Christian Fiction book. So, no vulgarity or that sort of thing. But, it\u2019s still a suspenseful thriller. So, if \u2018scary books\u2019 aren\u2019t your normal thing, you may still enjoy this one. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always had a weird fascination and a little bit of a aversion to funeral homes. I mean, they are full of death, which is scary to pretty much everyone. The Undertaker\u2019s Daughter<\/a> is a non-fiction book about a girl who actually grew up in a funeral home. Back when undertakers were also ambulance drivers. If non-fiction is more your thing, I found this book pretty fascinating. <\/p>\n

Good Me Bad Me<\/a> really asks the \u2018does the apple fall far from the tree?\u201d question. I don\u2019t want to give too much away, but it\u2019s about the daughter of a serial killer and whether or not her Mom rubbed off on her. What do you think?<\/p>\n\n

Have you read any of these creepy books? I\u2019m hoping I picked a round-up with a little something for every type of reader. Off to find some more terrifying books for me to read this year! I\u2019ll take all of your suggestions. <\/p>\n
