There’s Someone Inside Your House by Stephanie Perkins

We’ll say it now: this is the scariest book you’ll read this fall. Students at Osborne High are being murdered one by one, and as the terror grows closer and the hunt intensifies for the killer, the dark secrets among them must finally be confronted. You probably shouldn’t read this one while you’re alone…

Fear factor: off the charts 

A Line in the Dark by Malinda Lo

Since it hits shelves on October 17th, you’ll have plenty of time to devour this new psychological thriller before Halloween. However, with all of the thrills, friendship, and page-turning excitement, you’ll probably finish well before then. That’s okay though, you’ll want to re-read this entry into the twisted human mind as soon as you’re done.

Fear factor: high

Beasts Made of Night by Tochi Onyebuchi

Taj is the most talented of the aki, young sin-eaters indentured by the mages to slay the sin-beasts. But Taj’s livelihood comes at a terrible cost. When he kills a sin-beast, a tattoo of the beast appears on his skin while the guilt of committing the sin appears on his mind. A deep, dark, and twisty Nigerian fantasy, Beasts Made of Night is unlike anything you’ve ever read.

Fear factor: medium

Forest of a Thousand Lanterns by Julie C. Dao

Julie Dao’s debut is an East Asian fantasy reimagining of The Evil Queen legend about one peasant girl’s quest to become Empress. Undoubtedly the darkest fairytale retelling you’ve ever read…

Fear factor: low
