indie and/or small press horror
*or gothic and generally horror-adjacent. i have not read all of these! some self-published i think as well
c is for cult horror ⛪️
don't you want to become a cult leader? there's something especially unsettling about one person who can effectively manipulate an entire group of people. even more so when it's something that could happen to any one of us. tread carefully as you explore these reads, they may just adopt you into their 'family' 🧟
Scream Queens
A reading list celebrating the women who know exactly how to get under your skin! Thankful for the gurlies!!!
Witches, cults & the occult
