a collection of autistic coded characters in fiction [ recommendations welcome! ]

For when your PB friends share the same name(s) as a book character! (See pinned comment for master list! Please feel free to chime in if you want to be added and/or if you want a different book assigned to you; I didn’t want to step on toes and add people I haven’t really talked to without their permission ❤️ also my brain is smooth and I forget book character names all the time lol)

you've heard of sporror, now get ready for corror (corn horror)

Spooky summer fun for all ages, from cute picture books with spooky elements, to creepy middle grade graphic novels, to teen + YA thrills, to adult-level gore and a sprinkling of erotic horror/dark romance. Books on this list have a heavy summer theme, either highlighting the season or taking place in settings like summer camps, fairgrounds, beaches, or water parks, and have some sort of creepy or scary element to them.

🏖️🌊👙🎡🎢🔪🏕️🏞️👻😈🍉

all things summer and horror from slashers to summer camp and your favorite local faire.

Fiction to read when riding that Stranger Things high, with similar vibes, references or stories. Sometimes called the "kids on bikes" genre, this is a mix of small town horror, scifi and speculative fiction. Also the tie-in novels for Stranger Things itself, as that inspired this list.

This is an achillean horror books lists.. i make this because i want more gays. This list is inspired by the list made by @Thehobbit ( Yes. I definitely did not read like 99% of these books so.

books with the aesthetic of a 70s/80s summer camp, where a mysterious killer is picking off teenagers one by one…

do clowns make you feel funny in your tummy? 🤡 here is a list of clown books that span multiple genres, from nonfiction to horror to smut

side note: I do love the clown community here in los angeles and I love clown comedy so this is in no way a hateful list

as always, taking any and all suggestions!

Bright sun, bad decisions, and something already in the woods.

Skin burning. Air too heavy. Summer lasting too long. ☀️

Beach houses with doors that jam. Rentals that were always a red flag. Footsteps that don't match anyone inside. Slasher chaos, slow dread, or almost playful, until it's not.

Your summerween you're looking for is here, welcome 🎃🔪🥂

This list is an aesthetic. It’s waking up on a foggy morning and getting lost in the cornrows in the backyard; it’s going to a harvest festival and taking a hayride out to a secret, ritualistic sacrificial ceremony; and it’s worshiping old gods stuffed inside of a scarecrow or old gnarled tree.

Collection of slasher books!

Some will involve the supernatural, some are from the POV of survivors and others from the killer

We think of summer as the season of light, but shadows are longest when the sun is highest. It is the time of the year when the woods grow too thick to see through, the water grows too dark to see into, and the heat makes the mind play tricks. From the rotting porches of the South to the blood-stained cabins of the North... We call them the Summer Nightmares.

Here's where the scary clowns live. Let's hope they don't get out. Coulrophobia in the making.
