ReplyDeleteI haven't really read anything scary for a while, the last was Mara Dyer I guess... but I plan on stepping my horror game up this fall :)
ReplyDeleteHaven't read a scary book since I was a kid. Think it's high time I started picking up some scary books again. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI read Slasher Girls & Monster Boys... the wolf-thing on the cover gave me nightmares!
ReplyDeleteI read Ten by Gretchen McNeil recently . It's about some teenagers stuck at a house on an island , and then they start dying "accidentally" . It was very suspenseful , but I wouldn't say it was terrifying or anything :)
ReplyDeleteI read Anna dressed in blood , it was scary because ghosts always creep me out
ReplyDeleteHI Karin I thought it was scary too :p It could've been the red font but Anna was more horrifying in book two.
DeleteI am reading Mr Mercedes by Stephen King at the moment. It's about a serial killer and a retired cop.Good scary stuff :)
ReplyDeleteI read that book ! That serial killer was sick wasn't he?
DeleteStephen King
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! The Scariest book I read was The Madman's Daughter because it was full of suspense. :)
ReplyDeleteI would like to read it or winning it would be nice.
DeleteThe only scary book I love is Silence of the Lambs. I've read it many times but never seen the movie (too scared).
ReplyDeleteNO I HAVE NOT LATELY

ReplyDeleteI haven't read a scary book lately, but my all time favorite is The Cellar by Richard Laymon
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books lately but I love the TV show, "The Strain" and would love to start reading the series.
ReplyDeleteKimmy Ripley
Well, I thought A Madness So Discreet is going to be a scary one but it wasn't, so no. Hoping to read a few this month though.
ReplyDeleteI haven´t read any scary books lately.
ReplyDeleteeverything about the great tales of horror by hp lovecraft scares the heck out of me hahaha
ReplyDeleteNo, I have not read any scary books lately. I have been into more of books with murders in them. I used to read all of Stephen Kings books, he is a master of horror.
ReplyDeleteLake Of Sins : Secrets In the Blood by L.S O'Dea. The premise behind the horrific class system, which I won't spoil, is tarrifing. The gore and paranormal beings is a wonderful blend.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read anything scary for a while...lots of murder, though.
ReplyDeleteAlasdair by Ella Frank
ReplyDeletethey definitely aren't sparkly vampires!
I recently read "The Walls Around Us" and it wasn't necessarily scary as well as creepy. The twist at the end, although not my favorite, was creepy on so many levels...
ReplyDeleteI don't read too many scary books but I have wanted to try a Ransom Riggs book as everyone says there only a little scary which is About all I can take LOL
ReplyDeleteMegan@ reading away the days
for some reason my blood pressure rose when I read them. :/ I have high blood pressure anyway but ya the pictures were creepy weird.
DeleteNo I haven't in fact it has been awhile
ReplyDeleteYes I have. And what made it so scary was the fact that the descriptions in the book were so vivid that I could actually see myself in those situations
ReplyDeleteA couple of months ago I read The Woman in Black by Susan Hill. I think ghost stories are very scary and eerie.
ReplyDeleteDuring the summer I read Nameless by Lili St. Crow which had some spooky elements to it.
ReplyDeleteDaughters Unto Devils was one that I really enjoyed, it had a dark atmosphere and some pretty spooky scenes that gave me the chills. Same goes for The Dead House, only it was a LOT better and dealt with mental illness among other things. The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly, while not the creepiest novel ever, definitely had an atmosphere that managed to creep me out, also THE FEELS. All three novels had some truly emotional scenes. Loved them! :D
ReplyDeletethese books must be a genre that I do not subscribe to cause I've never heard them. If they are scifi horror I don't like scifi.so...... oh well.
DeleteThe Shining-Room 237 was scary.
ReplyDeleteI read the graphic novel Through the Woods, it was really scary! The illustrations and colors were creepy and I loved it.
ReplyDeleteI recently read Knock Knock by S.P. Miskowski, it's a fantastically written psychological horror story....I absolutely loved it!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read a scary book lately but I would definitely set time aside if I had one!
ReplyDeleteRight now I am reading In A Dark, Dark Wood. It's not scary as much as it is tension filled and full of twists. I guess it is more suspense.
ReplyDeletei haven't read any scary book lately ( i'm not into "dark" horror" either) the last on ewas soul avenged by keri lake, everything is scary teh strory, teh atmosphere the characters... in fact it's get even darker and darker along teh book and teh series so i'm not sure i wioll manage to keep following it
ReplyDeletei would like to win empire of night by kelley armstrong if possible thanks
Sorry to say I haven't read any scary books. But I do have Rot and Ruin waiting for me on my shelf. Maybe I will crack it open in time for Halloween :) Thanks for the giveaway! Fingers crossed...
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books lately, the last one I read was a book of short stories & some scared the crap outta me!
ReplyDeleteThe Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall by Katie Alender. It's YA horror, but it's legit creepy, it's set on an asylum for troubled women.
ReplyDeleteZom-B by Darren Shan. He is my favorite author. So, don't be surprised that Master of Horror doesn't scary me at all X))
ReplyDeleteI read Shutter by Courtney Alameda recently and it was so scary I refused to stay sleep alone in my rooms for weeks.
ReplyDeleteNo, haven't read scary books lately
ReplyDeleteI haven't really read anything scary lately, but now that the Halloween is coming, I think I would do that. Thanks for the giveaway! (Valentina B. -on the raffle)
ReplyDeleteMy latest scary read was Karina Halle´s Dark House, she really catches the spookie, terrifying feelings in words =) Can´t wait to continue with the series.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway & Happy Wednesday!

I just finished Stephen King's IT and it terrified me because it's about a killer clown...nuff said lol!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time since I've read a scary book. I enjoy them. Grew up reading a lot of Stephen King
ReplyDeleteIt seems like Stephen King is incredibly popular when it comes to creepy reads, but I have to agree - no one scares me like his novels do
ReplyDeleteI haven't read anything scary lately...I'm too much of a coward. The last time I read something that scared me was Lost World...haha
ReplyDeleteI have not read any scary books lately. School has been keeping me from getting in the halloween spirit...However I do plan to read Miss Peregrines Halloween weekend.
ReplyDeleteMy name in the rafflecopter is Meghan Hawk. Sorry I could change my name below.
Stephen King's Doctor Sleep. I'm not finished it yet, but its scary just like the Shining was! (Andrea Amy)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books lately, though I am reading Stephen King's Finders Keepers. It's a lot different than his usual writing, so far. I'm really liking it.
ReplyDeleteI read, not a scary book, but one with an eerie atmosphere, it's The Thirteenth Tale. The characters were somewhat odd and creepy at times, I really enjoyed it. Thank you. :)

I read the The Darkest Powers series by Kelley Armstrong and it was pretty spooky because the main character is a necromancer and she sees the dead and the way she describes what she see is creepy (in a good way!)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary book lately. The last scary book I read was Anna Dressed in Blood and that was about 2 years ago.
ReplyDeleteI've read The Feedback Loop books 1 and 2 which were scary for the possibility of technology advancing as written about.
ReplyDeleteNot really. "Scary books" aren't usually scary to me. In fact, neither are scary movies. But I do enjoy them regardless. I liked The Shining by Steven King :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books recently
ReplyDeleteI have recently read Scary Stories to Tell In The Dark with the kids but nothing for me... Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteI have a list of scary books in my blog post. check them out if you like . Thanks for visiting . Good luck!
DeleteJeffery Deaver's books always scares me lol. I'm reading The Kill Room right now, it's not something I'd read alone at night.
ReplyDeletegood cause you need to :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books lately. I just finished allegiant
ReplyDeleteI read Masque of the Red Death when it first came out. I tried to read the second but just couldn't get into it since it had been so long since I read the first. I'll have to try again. I haven't read any really scary ones lately though.
ReplyDeleteIs this giveaway international?
ReplyDeleteYes , yes it is .
DeleteI just read 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King. It has many vampires in the book.

I reread 'Misery' it always creeps me out.
ReplyDeleteKrysta B.
I haven't read any scary books lately, but my favorite scary book is Stephen King's Pet Cemetery. Nothing creepier than a little kid trying to kill you. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI don't like to read very scary books, but I do enjoy paranormal romance and urban fantasy. Actually, I've just finished reading the first two books in the Vampire Academy series, and there WERE some pretty scary parts.....especially in the second one, "Frostbite". Rose Hathaway and her best friend, Moroi Princess Lissa Dragomir, meet some of the evil vampires in the series -- the Strigoi. Now THOSE vamps are REALLY scary!! So I had some uncomfortable moments there! However, I LOVE this series, so I will continue reading it for sure!! I have a thing for vamps, if they're not the Dracula type! Lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the AWESOME giveaway!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! : )
I haven't really read anything scary lately, but the last creepy book I read was Bones and All.
ReplyDeleteI have not read a scary book recently. Thanks for the giveaway. I hope that I win. Bernie W BWallace1980(at)hotmail(d0t)com
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any scary books recently, but my favorite is probablyThe Exorcist.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have read anything scary lately. Time to remedy that for sure!
ReplyDeletefaramena at gmail dot com
The Kind Worth Killing was definitely creepy-it had this overarching sense of foreboding from the very beginning that never let up.
ReplyDeleteI have read several recently... The Dead House which was great, but not as scary as I was hoping! The Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall, which was good but not scary at all, The Diary of a Haunting which was just ridiculous, and not in a good way (for me), and now I am reading Daughters Unto Devils which is not scary at all, so far. I JUST WANT A SCARY BOOK, PEOPLE! HELP!
ReplyDelete+JMJ+
ReplyDeleteI recently attempted Hostage to the Devil by Father Malachi Martin, which is about real-life exorcisms. The first two chapters were so scary that I stopped, had to sleep with the light on, and haven't picked the book up again since!
Thanks for the giveaway. =)
I haven't read a scary book lately but I am going to soon.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read a scary book in a long time. If my memory is correct, I think it was Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake.
ReplyDeleteTara Woods
Stephen King's The Shining. He's really good at creating tension.
ReplyDeleteI am reading Sleepy Hollow, Rise Headless and Ride by Richard Gleaves. It is very good, nice and spooky. Just perfect for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway and the chance.
diannp(at)neo(dot)rr(dot)com
Awesome giveaway. Thank you for the chance ♡
ReplyDeleteThe last scary book I read was Pet Semetary by Stephen King. I loved how it kept me on the edge of my seat not knowing what was going to happen next.
ReplyDeleteI'm not currently reading anything scary and I haven't in a while, but, I still need to finish reading The Monstrumologist series so I should get back to that soon!
ReplyDeleteWhile I haven't read any scary books lately (sadly), I have read Monsterland by Michael Phillip Cash. It might be frightening to some. It is set in a world that includes a zombie virus, and where vampires and werewolves have been recognized as real. I think Cash could have gone much further with it than he did - maybe he plans to write a sequel or make a series out of it.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently reading Donners of the Dead by Karina Halle, there should be zombies in it but so far I'm waiting for any to appear ;)
ReplyDeleteThe Diary of a Haunting was really good until the very end. Very creepy!
ReplyDeleteThe last scary book I read was Dark Memories by Jeff Savage. It was about a ghost of a young boy that came back to haunt the kids (now adults) that left him in a cave to die when they were on a school field trip years earlier. It was an eery book full of tension. Don't read it when you're by yourself!
ReplyDeleteI read The Masked Truth by Kelley Armstrong and it was scary because it involved a group of kids being held hostage
ReplyDeleteI have to say scariest read ive read recently was Baad Dog by Sal Conte all i can say is technology and animals dont mix
ReplyDeleteI think that the last scary book that I read was "It" by Stephen King. I enjoyed the scares.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently reading Blue Lily, LIly Blue by Maggie Stiefvater and there's a scene where a woman who's been in a coffin for hundreds of years gets up from her grave! it was pretty scary, SHE is pretty scary.
ReplyDeleteThe contest is supposed to close at midnight on november 1st not on Halloween. :(
