Scary stories for Halloween 😱

Brat: A Ghost Story by Gabriel Smith

Wonderfully weird and visceral, this short audiobook had me caught on its horns. Not for the squeamish.

 

We used to live here by Marcus Kliewer

I'm listening to this one at the moment. It's a modern take on the classic "haunted house" tale, as house flippers remodelling an old house are visited by previous residents.

 

My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix

Wow this was such a wild ride. Emotional, scary, gross, fun - all the things! I was utterly absorbed in this camp 80s horror.
