YA Ultimate Halloween TBR

So I don't know if it's the global pandemic, but I have been over summer and anxiously awaiting Halloween since like the start of July! I know, super early but for some reason I've been on a Horror movie kick since then. Disclaimer: I am a weenie when it comes to horror movies.

There are so many different genres of Horror movies too:

First off, we have the overly gruesome slasher movies that I personally can not stomach but I know other people adore.

Then, we have the typical paranormal horror movies that will literally leave me up all night and sleeping with a night-light for a week after watching! Like I said I'm a weenie. If you are able to watch a paranormal movie and still sleep like a baby at night, you are a different breed of human and I applaud you.

Then we have the Monster movie genre and the Psychological Thrillers, these are the genres I stick to the most, if I want to watch something scary without being TRAUMATIZED!

Then lastly my all time favorite genre of Halloween movies, are anything witch-related like "The Craft", its not going to keep me up at night, but sometimes I'm just looking for some Halloween Vibes.

Everyone has such different tastes when it comes to Horror movies, I figured people are the same when it comes to Horror Books. This year I've compiled a list of books fitting those 5 Horror movie genres to fit all your exact Halloween needs.
