About the Book
Asylum meets Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, in this riveting tale of ghosts, secrets, and family, from master of suspense Katie Alender.
Delia’s new house isn’t just a house. It used to be an insane asylum, a place to lock up “troubled” young women long ago. And a restless, wicked spirit is still at play–and it doesn’t want defiant girls like Delia to go anywhere.
So the house kills her.
Now Delia is a ghost, trapped in her creepy home forever. As she meets the other ghost girls who haunt the narrow hallways, as well as the handsome ghost boy on the grounds, she learns shocking truths about the house’s history. Delia also realizes that her alive and grieving sister might be the house’s next target. Can Delia unlock the mystery of the old asylum, save her sister, and free herself?

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children!! thanks for the giveaway:)
I grew up reading books by John Saul. He writes the creepiest weirdest horror books!!!
I LOOOOOOOVVVVEEEEEEE Katie Alender’s books. I am constantly recommending the Bad Girls Don’t Die series to my students. Can’t wait to see if this one will meet the same fate.
I cannot think of anything recent Ibhave read that is horror. This book sounds good though! Can’t wait!!!
Miss Peregrine series!
I always enjoy The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and read it every year for Halloween!
Stephen King’s The Stand creeped me out because of the exceptionally vividly drawn Villain (capital V definitely needed). 🙂 I haven’t read any good ones in a while though….
I actually haven’t read any horror books yet, but this one sounds like a great place to start! 🙂
Loooove! Cant wait to read!
The Haunting of Sunshine Girl was good, and scared me more than I expected. The Name of the Star was great and freaked me out a bit.
OMGGGG
I love these kind of books! I really love Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Asylum. I’m actually waiting for Library of Souls and I’m actually planning on reading Catacomb 🙂
Carrie has always been one of my altime favorites! I also love Miss Peregrine’s Hoem For Peculiar Children.
I grew up reading Stephen King, and he will always be the master of horror to me! I have not read much YA horror or ghost stories, the few things that I have read have failed to live up to my expectations. I love the Miss Peregrine series, but I don’t really think of that as horror.
no fav
I’ve always liked Dean Koontz, his stories were always layered. I read a lot of Kings books growing up but nothing really scared me. The story with the mirror and saying Mary, Mary into it left an impression upon me. Oh, I really liked The Cube, not a scary story but suspenseful. Being locked inside this object with other individuals as they tried to escape, each room closing as they exit it. An oldie but a goodie.
I love the miss peregrine books by ransom Riggs.
The Shining and Miss Peregrines are two favorites off the top of my head
One of my favorite YA horrors is courtney alameda’s shutter
Carrie
mrs pergerines and agatha christie
I love horror/scary books so these are just a few of my favorites: Bad Girls Don’t Die Series, The Anna Dressed In Red Duology, The Shining, anything by R.L. Stines! I love horror books!
The only “horror” I have read was the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books when u was younger. I read them now to my little cousins
I love Miss Peregrines home for Peculiar Children!!
Anna Dressed in Blood!
