Top Ten Tuesday: Books To Get In The Halloween Spirit



Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.

 This week's topic is books to get in the Halloween Spirit.
A book about a boy who lives in a graveyard. Delightfully creepy.
I found this one to be romantic and creepy.
Witch Child
I enjoyed this historical fiction set in Massachusetts during the witch trials.
Locke & Key
I love this deliciously creepy graphic novel series. 
The Strain
This great series about vampires taking over the world is creepy and sometimes a little scary.
The Witch of Blackbird Pond
I love this wonderful story about Kit who moves from Barbados to Connecticut. I love to reread it all the time.
The Splendor Falls
One of my favorite reads of last year. 
Spooky Little Girl
Such a funny story about a woman who dies unexpectedly.
Misery
One of my favorite Stephen King stories.
From Hell
A wonderful graphic novel about Jack the Ripper.

What books put you in the Halloween mood?

    Stephen King terrifies me, but I really need to read Neil Gaiman!

    I find ghost stories about women and children to be the creepiest!

    Neil Gaiman is my favorite. He advocates All Hallow's Read, where you give books for Halloween. (Plus candy; he's not totally insane.) Check out the website: allhallowsread.com . I give poetry with the candy. So far, no one has egged my house, so it must be acceptable. Or at least, not too terrible. Anyway, All Hallow's Read. And The Graveyard Book is a good one. :-)

    I don't think I've read The Witch of Blackbird Pond, but it sounds like a terrific story.
