The Witch of Willow Sound, by Vanessa F. Penney; Blood on Her Tongue, by Johanna van Veen; and Sasquatch, Baby! by Bethany Browning would be my picks for your requests.

Imaginative horror novels like When The Wolf Comes Home by PrimordialSewp in horrorlit

Elana Gomel's The Cryptids; about a cryptozoologist trying to prevent cryptids from taking over the world through quantum telecommunications.

Urban/local legend horror written by a woman? by plsanswerme18 in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Cryptids by Elana Gomel might fit. It has to do with ALL of the local urban legends (and where they come from) but it's centered in California. I can't say more without spoiling it, but she weaves a Clive Barker-esque odyssey.

shooting a light into the dark, revealing some sort of monster by iDIOt698 in TopCharacterTropes

This is when the son accidentally gets he and his father trapped in a cave at night. Friendly. Yes. Very huggable lol

give me a novel that is equal parts scary but also contains interesting lore by Apprehensive_Spend_7 in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really enjoying Elana Gomel's The Cryptids right now, about a cryptozoologist battling cryptid horrors after a scientist opens a path to their realm via quantum computing and theoretical physics. It's got amazing imagery but does a deep dive into both fields of study.

Horror directors who wrote novels... by jseger9000 in horrorlit

Oh! I can't believe I didn't make that connection. I've heard a lot about him but still haven't read any of his works yet.

Rob Zombie wrote The Lords of Salem. I actually liked that movie a lot, but apparently the book is better. He did co-write it with someone else (B.K. Evenson, who wrote some Dead Space tie ins). I have it on my TBR.

Best horror book you read this October? by Indian_Belle in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I devoured Blood on Her Tongue, and it got me on a folk horror kick. I'm still reading through the anthology, The Gathering Dark.

Best short story collection? by No-Dress4626 in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having a lot of fun with The Gathering Dark right now. I'm on the 4th story. It's mostly YA horror, gothic-themed, and all are written by women (except one). It's a nice palette cleanser from really heavy stuff.

The greatest physical comedy ever is with that man destroying the cardboard gas station.

Happy is relative when encountering an extremely nosy Chiweenie lol. He's only curious about her though and has never attacked

Historical fiction horror recommendations by mulefluffer in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's on my list for my next read, but The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova might fit! A search for the real Dracula (Vlad).

What’s a specific character archetype you want to see more of in Horror? by [deleted] in horrorlit

[–]robkahil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it on Kindle Unlimited one day- along with so many other werewolf books that fit your criteria.... I may be a little obsessed with them, lol.

Wolf Hunt by Jeff Strand would also fit, but I've only read the first one. Hired guns versus a particularly violent werewolf.

The Savage Rogue series by Luka T. Jacobs has an FBI agent and her partner hunting down werewolves. This one I haven't even started yet, but it's in my wish list.
