Just chillin', killin'
Slasher - a subgenre of horror involving a killer or a group of killers stalking and murdering a group of people, often by use of bladed or sharp tools.
This is a big list of (almost) all slasher books (only first books in a series). As long as there is a killer(s), victims and blood, it counts!
