[@paperbackdreams]

YESSSSS so many good recs!!! i have never heard of that josh malerman story before so i’m gonna have to get on that bc it sounds wild!

[@zoeedelaney]

YAY! I hope you love it!! ♥️

[@rachelthome165]

Dark Places was so good! I listened on audible, too. Amazing. Just found your channel - love it!

[@tarareads23]

Thanks for the recs. I'm going to check out a few.

[@ilovesmallville13]

I read all of them except Pretty Girls and Baby Teeth, but I'm planning on reading Pretty Girls this month and I can't wait :D and I loved all the other books on your list, there are definitely some of them that I would reread in the future, like The Long Walk and A House at the Bottom of a Lake! Oh and You, and Coraline! Haha pretty much all of them 😅

[@crazybooklady8682]

So many of these are still on my TBR! It's always hard to choose what to prioritize, because of the endless amount of choices

[@emmigriffin8027]

I needed this, thank you!

[@chandlerainsley]

you look BEAUTIFUL and i'm so excited to listen to all these spooky recs

[@zoeedelaney]

UGH chandler you are the sweetest, thank you!! 💕

[@Soon2beMrsG]

Great recs!!!! I have read almost all of them :) but yes the Long Walk was really good!

[@ByMadisonFox]

Ooooh I’ve been looking for a new spooky audio book so YAY for dark places

[@zoeedelaney]

YESSS!👻

[@livelaughlove2read620]

I used to love scary books when I was a teenager, but now as a 50 year old woman, I just can't! They freak me the f*c*k out!

[@zoeedelaney]

haha! this made me giggle. I do feel like I've become more of a scaredy cat as I get older!

[@daniellereading8308]

Solid recs! I just got Baby Teeth from a second hand store for like $2-3 and I'm really excited to read it for spooky season! A few spooky ones that I just read read and recommend are Brother by Ania Ahlborn, The Turn of the Key, Sadie (especially the audiobook) and The Cabin at the End of the World.

[@zoeedelaney]

ahh thank you for these recs! I have The Turn of the Key ready to read in the next few days and I can't wait to get to it!

[@trombaba]

I LOVE The Long Walk! It's one of my favorite Stephen King books and I'm always recommending it to people!

[@books-on-a-wire]

I have been stockpiling for the last year and so many of these are coming up in my TBR. Currently reading NOS4A2 and just finished My Lovely Wife, which I loved.

[@zoeedelaney]

I was just looking into NOS4A2 and added that to my TBR as well!

[@_SarahRhubarb]

I loved The Long Walk! I've read about half of these, will definitely have to check out the rest. Great video, thank you for making it. :)

[@zoeedelaney]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@RachelRae]

I’m a sucker for a good Dean Koontz for this vibe. False Memory is my favorite from him. Velocity is good too!

[@jillniemczynski5517]

Rachel Rae Did you ever read Whispers? When I found out what the whispers were, I freaked! I love horror & murder mysteries. Anything that's scary 👻 Have a great day & a spooky Halloween! 👻🎃😱👀💀

[@raccoonpriests]

I love your top! I think Gillian Flynn really crafts beautiful dark characters. I have been meaning to pick up A House at the Bottom of the Lake. Thank you for a variety of recommendations!

[@zoeedelaney]

Thank you so much for watching! 💕

[@stilljustlily]

First, oh my god. As a stay at home mom, I have never read anything as accurate as Baby Teeth at capturing the mind numbing horror of being trapped in the house with your child with no help and no breaks and you feel like you are slowly losing your goddamn mind. I LOVED that book. Recs because this is my WHEELHOUSE: If We Were Villains, Shadow Man by Cody McFadyen, Gwendy's Button Box by Stephen King, Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Cain, In The Blood by Lisa Unger, The Last One by Alexandra Oliva, The Library At Mount Char by Scott Hawkins (I cannot rec this enough), and The Dead House by Dawn Kurtagich

[@zoeedelaney]

oh my GOODNESS thank you!! I'm literally adding all of these to my amazon list right now!

[@presleyreads7006]

Oooh Baby Teeth sounds awesome! 😍Definitely going to pick it up!

[@zoeedelaney]

Yay!!! That makes me so happy! ♥️

[@jennawar13]

Yes I am so excited for these recommendations!! I can’t wait to pick up some spooky books this October! I’m excited to read Stephen Chbosky’s new book Imaginary Friend

[@zoeedelaney]

ooooh YES same!!

[@TeresaNC1]

Pretty Girls is massively intense!!😳 Baby Teeth sounds scary! Those psychological twisters mess with my mind too much.

[@VanessaMarieBooks]

I just did a fall recs video as well. On my list, one of the scariest books I've read is the Mary duology. The first book is Mary: The Summoning and the second is Mary Unleashed by Hillary Monahan. They are a retelling of bloody Mary and they are so spooky and creepy. I feel like not many people know about those books, which is a shame cause they're so good. Also, The Diviners by Libba Bray is one of my all-time favorite series, I cannot recommend that series enough to people. If you haven't read it yet you must. It's a 1920s paranormal murder mystery and it's amazing!

[@zoeedelaney]

oooh thank you for those recs! I've been meaning to pick up The Diviners for a while now and definitely want to make that a priority this fall!

[@melreadsmysteries]

I know this was uploaded a while ago, but Im just watching now since I recently found your channel! 😜 For mystery/thrillers I’d highly recommend The Surrogate by Louise Jensen!!! One of the most twisty, edge of your seat, fun books I’ve ever read!

[@zoeedelaney]

Thank you so much, totally adding those to my wishlist!! 💕

[@jillniemczynski5517]

🙋 Hi first time viewer & new sub here! I love your recs, & will be reading them! I'm aging myself now. I read the Long Walk when it first was published as part of an anthology many years ago. I have been a Stephen King fanatic since I read Carrie way before anyone knew who he was. Anyway, I love horror, mysteries, & true crime. I read a book called Triad by Mary Leader back in the 70's. It's awesome. It's about a pregnant woman who believes her baby is possessed. I'm now reading A Secret History of Witches by Louisa Morgan. Not really scary, but very well written. You have to read Whispers by Dean Kuntz. It's one of his early ones. Very creepy! I do read a variety of books, not just scary stuff. I've rambled long enough. Take care, have a great day! 💙👍👻😱📚

[@zoeedelaney]

Thanks so much for watching and subscribing Jill! And these recommendations are awesome-- I can't wait to check them out!

[@TundraTomes]

okay so i'm not into scary books at ALL but these reccs are so good that i might just dive into one of them. loved this video! thanks for putting in some trigger warnings, too -- i always appreciate when reviewers do that.

[@happilyeverbooks9295]

Ahh I loved all these recommendations!! I definitely put some of these on my list for october because you made them sound SO GOOD😍

[@zoeedelaney]

yay!! thank you so much for watching! 💕

[@justcosmika7843]

I am a wuss so I haven't really read a scary book before! I have been considering reading some King soon so its awesome to know that the long walk is a good place to start! 🙂

[@kathievolk6128]

We have so many of the sametastes. I have one for you. If you like Baby Teeth you will LOVE the Perfect Child by Lucinda Berry. Or the movie Case 39. Creepy kiddos.

[@zoeedelaney]

YESSS Thank you so much! Totally added to my TBR!

[@toxicpurple1]

You should read The Troop by Nick Cutter and the Ruins by Scott Smith! Both of those creeped me out

[@zoeedelaney]

oooh thank you, will definitely check those out!

[@rebekahmackenzie]

The Long Walk sounds very good! I'll give it a try

[@zoeedelaney]

yay! I hope you like it!

[@sleepyochre]

PLEASE READ “THE CHALK MAN” I LOVED IT AND THE ENDING WAS SO GOOD!!

[@zoeedelaney]

yay! I have this one on my unread shelf and totally plan on picking up soon!

[@AlliGraceStory]

Such an awesome video! I loved the Coraline movie, but I actually haven't picked up the book yet, so now I really want to 😅 A House at the Bottom of a Lake sounds sooooo good!

[@zoeedelaney]

Thanks so much for watching!! 💕

[@AlliGraceStory]

@@zoeedelaney You're welcome 😊💖

[@pattireinheimer5612]

I thought My Best Friend’s Exorcism was fun, but if you dig Hendricks I’d recommend you check out Horrorstor which is brilliant!

[@zoeedelaney]

Yesss I definitely want to check that one out too, thank you!

[@sheilasamuelson9748]

I wasn't a big fan of Riley Sager's Lock Every Door, I just felt she ended it badly which led me to rate it 3.5 stars on Goodreads. Glad you enjoyed it tho!!

[@fightandreadlikeagirl]

I am a new subcriber! I love your videos! As far as coraline , I thought that movie was creepy.. If you loved Dark places, have you read Gone Girl?

[@zoeedelaney]

Thank you for subscribing! I LOVED Gone Girl!

[@POlivares23]

I’ve only read Ypu and really liked it even though it totally creeped me out. All the other sound really interesting but I probably won’t pick them up because I’m a scaredy cat.

[@zoeedelaney]

aww haha, well thank you so much for watching anyway! 💕

[@Megan-gy4ly]

I need to reread The Long Walk. I read it one sitting when I was a pretty young kid and totally missed the dystopian aspect! I seriously remember it as a bunch of boys who volunteered for the walk and was so confused why they'd do that when it's guaranteed that all but one will die. As you can imagine considering my poor reading comprehension, I thought it was pretty dumb at the time. I'm so curious what my (hopefully) more intelligent mind would think now!

[@zoeedelaney]

hah! It's so funny to me that so many have read this book at such a young age! I probably would have been so freaked out!

[@serenamoon4169]

new sub! and you totally remind me of Betty from Riverdale! ❤

[@MaryAmongStories]

I looove Coraline 💜 the movie is brilliant too! great video ^^

[@zoeedelaney]

agreed!!💕

[@acaciairving]

I loved baby teeth. My future mother in law did too. I hope there is a sequel coming! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ7GeoyqZbJ5nrs Plus ADORE my best friends exorcism and lock every door! we overlap a lot lol

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I need to pick up my copy of Baby teeth ahhhhh

[@encyclopediaofelizabeth]

My favorite horror/paranormal book is called Another. It's about a cursed middle school class and that's all I'll say. I didn't find it that scary, bit I just love the story. It's also a manga and anime too if anyone wants to consume it in those media.

[@zoeedelaney]

whaaat this sounds AWESOME. totally checking it out, thank you!

[@chadelo2891]

Check out 'The Dead House' by Dawn Kurtagich.

[@zoeedelaney]

thank you! 💕

[@AndiBoox3]

not just you lol I reallllly liked Baby Teeth!

[@zoeedelaney]

yesss! 💕

[@kimt3864]

Your shirt in this video matches the cover of The Ten Thousand Doors of January. #BookNerdObservations

[@wahtusy3519]

my bestfriend's exorcism is really, really good

[@JulEnglefaris]

I would recommend Joe Hill's books a million times. (Stephen King's son). I really love his books, they're scary but usually have good endings

[@zoeedelaney]

I'm only just recently hearing about Joe Hill and am veryyyy intrigued! Definitely adding him on my list to check out!

[@JulEnglefaris]

Dude I don't like books about kids unless theyre psychopaths 😂 then I love them! Karin Slaughter's books sound similar to Gillian Flynn. Would you say they're similar or nah?

[@zoeedelaney]

hahahahaha SAME! and that's a great question! I've only read one Karen Slaughter and I got more of an action-thriller vibe vs. slow burn disturbing like Gillian Flynn. It's very possible though! I plan to read more of her books though, and will definitely keep that question in mind!

[@JulEnglefaris]

@@zoeedelaney cool thanks!

[@ashtonreads]

The Long Walk was also my first King book that I read back in 6th grade. Just picked up a copy of it the other week and am planning to re-read as an adult, so maybe I'll make that part of my October TBR! I also just bought Lock Every Door, so definitely going to pick that up soon. Thanks so much for these recommendations!

[@zoeedelaney]

oh my! I couldn't imagine reading that in 6th grade!! I

[@silimili123]

💛

[@readbykate]

oh my gosh baby teeth sounds soooo creepy

[@tdwyer75]

I love you so so much, and I feel like all my comments have been critical and I do NOT mean to be at all. I just want to point out that mental illness has such a terrible stigma and we should really try to eradicate phrases such as "Not right in the head." Yes, I know Joe is scary and creepy and is meant to be psychotic, but please try to stop using phrases like that. They are up there with the R word, and "mental patient" in their level of degradation. Hugs to you and please again don't take this as criticizing you. I actually used that phrase up until a few years ago when someone kindly informed me that it was wrong.

[@tdwyer75]

I had written a super long reply and now your reply and mine are gone. Idk what I did haha.

[@zoeedelaney]

Oh that’s weird! That’s okay though, I really appreciate all your thoughts here. Thank you for sharing! 🧡

[@CateBarbosa]

I need to get me a copy of Baby Teeth... love your lipstick color! New subbie... let's support each other channels? 😍😍😘📚📚📚

[@zoeedelaney]

Thanks so much! 💕💕

[@wahtusy3519]

my bestfriend's exorcism is really, really good
