Who Was Changed and Who Was Dead
Is there anything more Halloween than a good gothic narrative? Well, maybe, but gothic is definitely a staple at our house.
It Lasts Forever and Then It’s Over
Spooky Season is Here at Last October is finally here and I have a whole bunch of spooky books saved up just for the occasion. I’m excited to start bringing out the holiday content and diving into it. However, this year with the amount of things we have packed into the month, I can admit […]
Unusual Fragments
I’m including Unusual Fragments as a spooky selection because all of these stories share some aspect of the unusual and arguably supernatural — or at least just plain eerily weird.
The Infamous Gilberts
I love a haunted house story, and though this isn’t a novel about actual ghosts (for the most part), it is a story about how human lives haunt the places they played out in.
My Men
My Men follows the life of Brynhild Storset who emigrates form Norway to the United States and eventually becomes Belle Gunness, arguably the first serial killer in American history.
Paradise Rot
What follows is a fever dream of decay and the juxtaposition of awakening and discovering blurred boundaries between individuals, bodies, sexuality, and plant life.
The Book of Evidence
Montgomery takes the reader through events and motivations and all of the gruesome details of his crime without any kind of apology or emotion.

The Metamorphosis
There’s something really nice about having a classic novel or collection of short stories gathered into a pretty little book. It’s perfect for travel.
