Stephen King

It's Thursday, and a day before a mini long weekend.

So, if you are not interested in movies, and you are in search of something creepy to keep you company, check out three novels that would terrify and excite you.

How easy and not wrong it would be to have just Stephen King's name on the list.

If you are a true fan of Stephen King, then you must have read one or two of his books that totally creeped you out.

The story follows the exploits of seven children as they are terrorized by the eponymous being, which exploits the fears and phobias of its victims in order to disguise itself while hunting its prey. - Wikipedia.

It marked his debut as an author, but yes he totally got the attention of every lover of everything creepy.

"House of Leaves begins with a first-person narrative by Johnny Truant, a Los Angeles tattoo parlor employee and professed unreliable narrator. Truant is searching for a new apartment when his friend Lude tells him about the apartment of the recently deceased Zampanò, a blind, elderly man who lived in Lude's building.

In Zampanò's apartment, Truant discovers a manuscript written by Zampanò that turns out to be an academic study of a documentary film called The Navidson Record, though Truant says he can find no evidence that the film ever existed."

"Broken into 11 parts, the book tells the story of Amy who was abandoned by her mother at the age of six, pursued and then imprisoned by the shadowy figures behind a government experiment of apocalyptic proportions.

But Special Agent Brad Wolgast, the lawman sent to track her down, is disarmed by the curiously quiet girl and risks everything to save her.

As the experiment goes nightmarishly wrong, Wolgast secures her escape—but he can’t stop society’s collapse. And as Amy walks alone, across miles and decades, into a future dark with violence and despair, she is filled with the mysterious and terrifying knowledge that only she has the power to save the ruined world." - Goodreads.
