Feel free to give recommendations as long as they aren't super repetitive đ¤
there are some that came out this year, such as Feral and Hysterical by Sadie Hartmann, Why I Love Horror edited by Becky Siegel Spratford, and Your Favorite Scary Movie by Ashley Cullins.
Awesome, thank you!
Wow! I love horror, I love nonfiction, I canât believe I never thought of reading nonfiction horror. Thank you for this listđ
This list was inspired by me picking up It Came From the Closet today. đ I hadn't really thought about it until recently that horror and non-fiction could cross over.
It Came From the Closet was such a good read, honestly.
