Horror Books I Love! Speaking of Gothic Book Recommendations – Part 1

Speaking of Gothic... Podcast

I thought I would record an episode about Gothic Horror literature and the dozens of books I read for inspiration, craft, history of the genre, and other things.

The books I am going to list are a combination of Fiction, Non-Fiction Mythology/Horror books, Non-Fiction Writing Craft books, Graphic Novels, and Comic Books. Everything that has influenced me, or that I am currently reading now!
