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' 🧟

Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White and Bad Creek by Peyton June would be a fit for this!

Moonflow by Bitter Karella would be a great fit for this!

my fave cult horror book i've read is make me better by sarah gailey! they have a distinctly weird timbre to all of their writing that makes it stand out imo, and make me better was such an interesting read.
