Open Call: The ChillerPop Top Ten Influential Books
My first Open Call response.
Of course I read more than
horror fiction, and of course there’s been many other books/novels
of higher and lower quality that have been more important and
influential to me. But this blog being what it is, I had to come up
with the list below of the horror books that influenced me the most.
And you can be sure that this is just a spur of the moment top ten
list. There’s no order here (maybe chronological by when I read them,
but even that’s uncertain). I don’t really have much use for these
kinds of lists – ask me tomorrow and the list will be completely
different.
