\"Bridge<\/figure>\n
\n

Bridge of Souls <\/em>by Victoria Schwab<\/h4>\n

Where there are ghosts, Cassidy Blake follows.<\/em><\/p>\n

This is the third book in Victoria Schwab\u2019s ghostly middle grade series, Cassidy Blake<\/em>. The first two books are City of Ghosts<\/em> and Tunnel of Bones<\/a><\/em>, set in Edinburgh and Paris respectively. This spooky continuation is set in New Orleans. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Mexican<\/figure>\n
\n

Mexican Gothic <\/em>by Silvia Moreno-Garcia <\/h4>\n

I\u2019ve heard fantastic things about this, a gothic horror set in the terrifying yet seductive world of High Place in the Mexican countryside. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Luckenbooth\"<\/figure>\n
\n

Luckenbooth<\/em> by Jenni Fagan<\/h4>\n

I bought this because it\u2019s set in 1910\u2019s Edinburgh (I can\u2019t resist books set here!). Jessie, the devil\u2019s daughter, has been sent by her father to bear a child for a wealthy couple, but, when things go wrong, she places a curse on the building and all who live there \u2013 and it lasts a century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n
\n

The Woods Are Always Watching<\/em> by Stephanie Perkins<\/h4>\n

Stephanie Perkins\u2019 books are always really fun and it\u2019s been a few years since I read her last horror, There\u2019s Someone Inside Your House<\/em>. This is the companion novel. <\/p>\n

Neena and Josie spent high school as outsiders, but at least they had each other. Now they have one last chance to be together before college \u2013 a three-day hike deep into the woods. They make a detour straight into a waking nightmare; and then into something far worse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"House<\/figure>\n
\n

House of Hollow<\/em> by Krystal Sutherland<\/h4>\n

I loved Krystal Sutherland\u2019s Our Chemical Hearts <\/a><\/em>and her first YA horror has received a lot of praise. <\/p>\n

17-year-old Iris Hollow has spent most of her teenage years trying to avoid the weirdness that sticks to her like tar. But when her eldest sister, Grey, goes missing, Iris learns just how weird her life can get. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Lockwood<\/figure>\n
\n

Lockwood & Co. <\/em>series by Jonathan Stroud<\/h4>\n

Lockwood & Co.<\/a><\/em> is a brilliant series that follows three young operatives of a Psychic Detective Agency as they battle an epidemic of ghosts in London. I\u2019ve read the first three books (there\u2019s five \u2013 so far?) and I thought I\u2019d re-read the first via audiobook. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"Fear<\/figure>\n
\n

Fear Street<\/em> series by R.L. Stine<\/h4>\n

R.L. Stine\u2019s Goosebumps<\/em> and Point Horror<\/em> were among my favourites as a young teen and I so thought I\u2019d buy Fear Street <\/em>when the first four books were republished in this beautiful new edition. I absolutely loved the Netflix mini series. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
