Horror books featuring sapphic characters and relationships!

Horror books to read just for the aesthetic

A list of horror books with stunning cover art because sometimes we do judge a book by its cover. Obviously this list is subjective but it’s diverse and inclusive.

Ongoing list so please feel free to suggest!

Not a comprehensive list, definitely open to suggestions. I'll try to update this fairly often! This list features a wide variety of genres and representations!

lit fic and horror, mainly, and mostly books by women, nonbinary & trans writers, basically mostly non-cis-men

sapphic horror/horror adjacent reads

this list features upcoming books that feature sapphic MCs or romance and are releasing in 2026!

All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.

It’s always nice to feel like a normal person by reading about those more unhinged than you 😌 These are all women focused books. Some I’ve read and some I’m going to read. Apologies in advance if it gets long. Recommendations are absolutely welcome!! So please feel free.

I know a couple are written by men which might be taboo for some but I’ve included because I thought they were appropriate or the author has a track record of writing women well.

Hardest Reading Challenge You’ll Ever Do! Subject to changes since I’m fickle. All 150 books plus the 2 bonus! I’m probably crazy for trying 🫠 I have repeated authors mostly because I’m trying to use books I already own. I’m not sure if that’s taboo or not…

what it says on the tin.

Deep, dark hunger for the cloying sweetness of a meat that will never satisfy. The inescapable temptation of taboo to distract from the underlining dissatisfaction of life. The dark analogy of emotional desire manifesting as a physical hunger for the other.

Ever wanted to eat some mystery meat? Take a bite of this list and you might come close enough to that feeling, whether it's literal or metaphorical. ~~ Credit to the incredible @mother.horror on instagram for the inspiration for this list!

Books that are considered "weird girl" lit or have "unhinged" women.
