Review: Scary Books I’ve Never Finished
My Octobers are always filled with scary books: suspenseful, invoking terror, haunting, and often filled with ghosts, goblins, headless horsemen, and other unexplained phenomenons.

There are a lot of great things about reading new types of stories, but, on the flip side, scary stories are scary.
Happy Sock Sunday!
