Recs if you like The Murders of Molly Southbourne (Molly Southbourne, #1)...

Horror books with a page count of 200 pages or less.

Before we started defining novellas by word count, they were defined as being any book less than 200 pages. Source: my Analysis of Short Stories & Literature professor in community college. I loved that class. But he loved James Joyce. So, ymmv, I guess.

One sitting. Thirty strange stories. Zero wasted pages.

Books that feature doppelgangers, doubles and other strange creatures that may want to take your place or impersonate you. Doppelgangers are hard to find, but they are even harder to get rid of...

For when you need a quick horror fix

Books that are short but impactful. Some of these I read years ago and still think about unprompted sometimes. (I tried to keep these below 250 pages)

Please feel free to recommend your own favourites in the comments! ^^

Quick speculative fiction reads (quick, like under 40,000 words).

The Nommo Awards are literary awards presented by The African Speculative Fiction Society. The awards recognize works of speculative fiction by Africans, defined as "science fiction, fantasy, stories of magic and traditional belief, alternative histories, horror and strange stuff that might not fit in anywhere else."

All of the Nommo Award winners in the novel and novella categories
