Recs if you like Partially Devoured: How Night of the Living Dead Saved My Life and Changed the World...

was curious, so did some research and found loads and loads!!! happy reading, folks!

A genre-inclusive and diverse list of horror releases coming in 2026. If I missed any or you have suggestions, please let me know. I will update periodically as new books are announced and release dates are solidified.

Source for a lot of the data for this list came from readjumpscares.com, which is a website you should absolutely check out. I’m sure data will come from other places along the way, as well.

Nonfiction books about the mechanics, psychology, and other aspects of the horror genre.

Recommendations are always welcome!

Books about horror media! Nonfiction, including creative nonfiction like poetry.

Books about the horror genre from an academic lens because we need more of those!!
