DeleteOoh Psycho! Good one! Awesome list! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Happy Tuesday! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks and thanks for stopping by also!
DeleteI reeeally need to read Miss Peregrine's soon! And Dracula!
ReplyDeleteGreat list, definitely Halloween-y! :)
Def a must read.
DeleteSome really scary ones on this list! Love Rebecca and I've always wanted to read Dracula. I'm afraid of Amnityville Horror, and I've seen the movie Psycho. I haven't read Ten but I have read And Then There were None by Agatha Christie which was the original - great read! Good list thanks for stoping by mine too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by also. Im more into the "old school" kind of scary.
DeleteI definitely want to read Ten - I've seen it on so many lists today, and I know it's based on my favourite Agatha Christie mystery. I haven't read Rebecca, although I have seen the film and if the book if anywhere near as creepy, I might have to sleep with the light on! And YES to Rocky Horror. Absolutely wonderful any time of year! :D
ReplyDeleteI actually saw the movie Rebecca before I read it but its one of the few times the movie and book are both awesome. who doesnt love rocky horror? lol
DeleteSuper list, I forgot some of them, like Rosemary's baby or Rebecca. Ten is not enough....
ReplyDelete10 isnt enough. I couldve added a few more.
DeleteI loved Ten and definitely agree on anything by Stephen King, he was my favorite when I was I'm high school. :)
ReplyDeleteyes Stephen King is great...too many good books for me to choose from.
DeleteI've been told again and again that I must read Rebecca! Also I love Edgar Allen Poe, I really can't get enough of him around Halloween. :D
ReplyDeleteyes both are must reads!
DeleteLots of excellent choices here!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my TTT post.
thanks for stopping by also!
DeleteI can never spell this name, so i'm just going to say number 10, the home for peculiar children is a good book, rather than embarrassing myself trying to spell the name. xD And Stephen King is a good one! Thanks for your comment on mine!
ReplyDeletelol. Im not the grammar police I misspell all the time. However both are awesome.
DeleteI can't believe I haven't checked out any of Edgar Allen Poe's works. I must fix that in the near future...have also been meaning to check out Miss Peregrine's Home for Pecuilar Children, the cover and premise sounds positively eerie!
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog earlier! =)

Thanks and thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read Ten. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by also.
DeleteWow, I haven't read a single one of these! I'm considering reading Ten, but I'm not 100$ sure if I'll thank myself for it afterwards! I get creeped out so easily that I have, so far, just decided to read ATTWK before, and see if I like it enough to consider reading a modern adaption!
ReplyDeleteGreat list!
I understand Im the same way...I cant handle scary.
ReplyDeleteI want to read Ten! It sounds amazing! Thanks for stopping by and following, I'm now following back :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteHow did I forget about Miss Peregrine?! Ah, so disappointed in myself, that's perfect for Halloween! Also, I;m dying to read some Poe. I went to a lecture last night on Poe's influence on detective stories, so now that's all I want to read. Thanks for following me, I followed you right back! Great list.
ReplyDeleteThanks Britt I appreciate it! Poe is one of my all time faves.
ReplyDeleteEdgar Allen Poe! Why didn't I think of HIM?! lol I love Poe!
ReplyDeleteI am also really excited because I picked up Ten from the library yesterday (FINALLY)! So I get to read that Halloween week! Yippee!
Thanks for stoppin by my blog this week!
Poe is the best! Its very fitting to read Ten during Halloween week...enjoy!
DeleteOh, I love Poe! And since I'm kind of a YA fanatic, I have to recommend Nevermore by Kelly Creagh. The works of Poe play a big part in the story.
ReplyDeleteSarah's YA Blog
Thanks I will check that out.
DeleteMiss Peregrine is a really good choice! I'm not a huge fan of Poe's short stories (I love his poems, though), but they do fit the season. (: Ten is so creepy!
ReplyDeleteGreat list!
Thanks for stopping by.
