Recs if you like Psycho...

Name-calling and insults you might hear on the playground and beyond...

Anything can be an insult if you believe it! My kid brother used to get in trouble for calling us "you...you BEAN" with all the spite his little preschool self could manage 🥹

Tier 1 from the disturbing novels iceberg. Iceberg was created in response to the disturbing movie iceberg. These are the 'beginner' books with difficult themes and some gore.

I love thrillers! I also...hate thrillers. 😅 This list is borne of a personal quest to find more of the thrillers I enjoy, specifically ones published in the 20th century. No Gone Girl or Freida McFadden here, I'm afraid.

Under construction — recs enthusiastically welcomed

Gabs 2024 reads in her ranking video. Hope you'll find something you'll like!

My pitch for horror movies to be added to the "Made For The Movies" quest. Or that they should get their own?? (Also let me know ones to add - I'd love some recs)

Books and short stories that Alfred Hitchcock adapted

Ideas for the 'Road Trip' and 'Traipsing Through Regions' squares of the board :) and maybe at a push, the 'Biomes' square too!

Books are set in regions from around the world, countries around the world or states of the USA (outside of the heavily populated NYC/CA)

IN PROGRESS AS OF MAY 2026 (I'm rewatching it and trying to put everything in chronological order of the show T.T) - Every single book directly mentioned, referenced in a joke, or clearly seen in the show Gilmore Girls, because I'm obsessed and challenging myself to read them all. I'm also including if they mentioned a movie that's based on a book.

Some spooky, some cozy - these are some of the best autumn books I've read.

A colourful bouquet of creepy, macabre and gruesome tales from the past century. Of murderous worms, demons and unpleasant events.

(Work in progress)

Horror novels that were so horrific they got adapted for the silver scream! Only select Stephen King titles to keep this from being The Stephen King Show :')

Decent to amazing scary reads
