50 Horror Books You Need on Your Radar in 2023

I'm looking for a book with a similar feel to the bird box. Something apocalyptic because of creatures. I LOVE the bird box book but have read it now several times and really want something with a similar vibe if anyone has any suggestion please

Definitely give Fantasticland a read, it's so worth it. And if you like audiobooks, the audiobook on that is great and really gets you into the story.

I'm use to reading fantasy books at this point I'm ready to come to the dark side. 👻

I love your energy and passion for horror novels <3

Finished how to sell a haunted house. Mixed thoughts, need to let it sit in my mind for a bit

Omg I want them all 🥰

sooooo, now I want all of these.

I have no idea if you have read or mentioned this book yet (I’m almost through all your videos), but have you read Daughters unto Devils by Amy Lukavics? It’s so unsettling and one of my fave horror books. It came out a few years ago (by publishers Harlequin Teen , weirdly). I cannot recommend Amy Lukavics enough.

Just finished How to Sell a Haunted House, not at all what I expected but I loved it! Some wild, creepy stuff! Don't want to spoil anything, best to go in blind.

Psychedelic splatter? Never thought I would hear those two words together, let alone the same day hours after I find out Dolly Parton and James Patterson wrote a book together

I love your excitement for all the books!

Devil's Creek - interesting, I read this in 2021, paperback released in June 2020. Wonder why it now says it's release date is 2023?

Sold! I want a copy of Killer.

Have you ever seen the movie Orca the Killer Whale? I highly recommend it if you have not.

Have you read Into the Drowning Deep? That’s a really good horror mermaid story!

What a fantastic list of horror books.😊

Great video! I need to add new horror books too many 😂 I gotta ask I love your hair color is it natural? Sorry I can't tell love it!

Wow, what a list!! I am adding most of these to my wish list. My wallet and bookshelves can thank me later. 😂 🧡💙🧡

The 80ties ruled, huh?!!

Hi Mandy.....wanted to inform u of an awesome horror-comedy, indie movie I saw in Tubi. Its called, "Don`t f*** in the woods 2" and its really cool. Has great FX, good wit, great acting and a plotline that is unique and not generic like many zombie movies end up being. Check it out.

I was a teenager in the 80s .loved the horror books .fashion and 80s music. A great selection of books you got. Enjoy your reading.❤😊

Ugh Im SO EXCITED FOR LIKE 20 OF THESE

Ooo, I love a good snowy survival horror, so Killer and Neverest sound fantastic!

I cannot wait for Killing It! Fantasticland is one of my favorite horrors. Definitely check out the audiobook for it if you can! It sounds like a full cast but it’s only two narrators. And it’s made up of interviews, so it’s really easy to listen to.
Thanks so much for making this video! I added lots of books to my 2023 list 😂

Dang it...I was doing so well until this video. I automatically pre-ordered two and put eight more on my wish list lol.

So many great horror books coming out, I need more time to read! I'm looking forward to Don't Fear the Reaper by Stephen Graham Jones. And I just finished Bad Cree which was released on January 10th and it was excellent! My first 5/5 of the year.

Nice to see Philip Fracassi getting mentions, very involved in his community author and an outstanding storyteller. There is so much new horror coming out this year, looking forward to it.

Mandy, have you read Flicker by Theodore Roszak? Experimental Film by Gemma Files? Marisha Pessl's Night Film? William Gibson's Pattern Recognition? All great eerie books about film and its dark magic, each story standing on its own patch of horror ground. Ancient Images by Ramsey Campbell is one of his classics; you'll enjoy it.

😍😍😍

Please pick up Ancient Images by Ramsey Campbell, he is in my circle of fave writers. Episode Thirteen sounds interesting. 😱 new book from Craig Russell, definitely a must-have ! I absolutely ❤️ his other book The Devil's Aspect.

Devils creek came out 2-3 years ago

I like the creepy small town books and movies.

Episode 13 and Ancient Images sound right up my alley! Also need to check out Delicious Monsters. Pinata sounds excellent as well! Agony's Lodestone is also getting added to the list. The Cherished and Games for Dead Girls also sound really good. So many good books on this list. Gonna have to come back and rewatch this to get all of them written down for my tbr list. All the cursed and lost film books are definitely going to get devoured. Thank you for all the recs, Mandy!

So good to see Ancient Images being rereleased, I’m definitely going to read that one soon.

2023 a year of horror!! 😱🎃 I adore the haunted / lost movie trope.

gave up on adding all the authors’ names in the description pretty quick i see
