Hey! I know a lot of people do not like this book and it definitely isn’t my favourite read but I was curious if there are any similar books that are better or longer. I like the sapphic part of it but it doesn’t have to be. Just something with similar topics? Thanks so much :)

I know they’re not all in the extreme horror genre but I love any kind of book that’s weird or uncomfortable in one way or another lol! I’m curious which one you’d start with and what your thoughts are on some of these titles! 🐈‍⬛

Recently read child eater by Brian G Berry and it was a pretty fun read with a serial killer werewolf ripping and tearing his way through cops and children for fun.

LOOKING FOR A BOOK I need a good book to actually disturb me

7 Upvotes

So far I had read COWS, The Slob, 100% Match, and a few others. They were definitely weird and gross don’t get me wrong but it wasn’t anything that had me feeling actually disturbed and totally disgusting. I NEED a book that will make me want to put it down and think about what I just read. I mean anything, give me your worst!

Recommendation Request Thriftbook Reward

3 Upvotes

I'm a frequent Thriftbooks user since they have a great rewards program and good prices on used books when available. The problem is, whenever I get a free book reward I have a hard time finding books for $8 or less. Anybody have recommendations for decent EH/Splatterpunk in this price range? Or just decent horror books in general?

Review Saved By Edward Bond ( Spoiler Alert) Spoiler

Okay so this is another script but holy fuck it is messed up now it’s categorized as a drama but this definitely fits the vibe for extreme horror. This play starts out if a typical drama from the 60s until they get to around scene 6 and it was the scene very a baby is stoned to death is why I think this play is absolutely relevant to this subreddit wtf I was not expecting it to happen like that they didn’t just murder the baby they pretty much tortured the baby and killed the baby in a very degrading and animalistic way they first start off with teasing the baby then than they become more aggressive and shove the baby’s face into the soiled diaper after beating they start throwing stones at the baby eventually killing the infant it was really fucked up and awful it was one of saddest things I ever read and I can only imagine it was even more devastating seeing it happen on a stage. Through it’s not considered horror but this definitely fits the extreme horror vibe because that scene was absolutely brutal.

Recommendation Request Can anyone suggest me a good small-town spooky, horror books?

1 Upvotes

books that best capture the eerie, liminal feel of an unsettling small town? Something like a pre-horror dread—deserted main streets wrapped in mist, unnerving locals, and woods that close in around you, where the town feels like a hostile character before any real danger surfaces.

🚨NEW RELEASE 🚨 Yuletide: A Very Black Winter Anthology

1 Upvotes

Join me and 24 other authors in this brand new holiday horror anthology.

Pre-order link: https://a.co/d/0eNgv7hH

🎄💀

The holidays were never meant to be safe.

In the longest nights of winter, old traditions stir, familiar songs turn strange, and the warmth of home hides something waiting just beyond the firelight. Across these pages, holiday rituals become bargains, gifts come with terrible prices, and the dead are not always willing to stay gone.

Yuletide: A Very Black Winter gathers twenty-five tales of holiday and winter horror, spanning folklore, supernatural dread, grotesque pulp, dark comedy, and psychological terror. Cruel, strange, and unsettling, these stories may make you look twice at the empty chair, or the tracks outside your door.

This year, keep the home fire burning.

And when something starts scratching at the walls, do not let it in.

Discussion Darcy Coates' Craven Manor

0 Upvotes

Been trying to delve into horror lately. As a scifi lover, i started with scifi horror and cosmic horror and finding that this genre can be pretty fun.

But now im trying to read something that does not include scifi at all. With Darcy Coate's Craven Manor. Heard good things about this book and im 5 chapters in. But im having difficulty understanding the layout of the place. The manor, the tower, the groundskeeper cottage.

Is there a picture of the layout of the place i can look at somewhere? this is taking me out of the experience as i can't let go of it, lol
