Extreme Horror Must-Read: 5 books to discover now (especially if splatter is new to you!)

These are my top 5 so very open to interpretation. It goes without saying, I thought, that these are also all very well-written books. I have the wrong SK book in hand. Survivor Type is in Skeleton Crew. Sorry for that mix-up ~ Thank you to John at Books of Blood for catching that! There are rough books to read that lose the craft along the way just like there are extreme horror films that have low production value or lose the plot. These are books that deal with extremities and disturbing situations that are not recommended for all readers even though they are expertly written and tell gut-wrenching stories. 00:00 - Introduction to 5 extreme horror books 00:47 - Stephen King, Survivor Type 02:35 - Jack Ketchum, Offspring 03:36 - Edward Lee, The Haunter of the Threshold and Gast or Black Train 06:36 - Ryan Harding, Genital Grinder 08:06 - Garth Ennis, Crossed In this video, we talk about Stephen King, Edward Lee, Wrath James White, Jack Ketchum, Ryan Harding, Garth Ennis, and smile as we mention Richard Laymon. ✮✮✮✮✮✮ ▹ Bookworm decor is here! https://shop.typicalbooks.com/ ▹ All socials, the shop and news: https://linktr.ee/LydiaPeever ▹ Read books I wrote: https://amzn.to/3k20OY6 ▹ A list of horror books out each month: https://typicalbooks.com/newhorror ▹ Music by ænorex: https://aenorex.com As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases when you use Amazon links here.
