As a spooky connoisseur, this quiz humbled me lol. 6?! If it was spooky books owned and unread or have been on your TBR for years I‘d have a top score.😄 So I‘ll be the person to list 3 I think were missed.
•Justice for The Push! Lol it‘s a perfect creepy bad seed concept
•The Weight of Blood is a great Carrie retelling
•NOS4A2 - Christmas themed but absolutely belongs
•Honorable mention: The Grip of It is CREEPY!

Tried to post this last night but I couldn‘t get on Litsy for some reason. 🤷🏻♀️ Thanks @dabbe for the tag! I‘m not much of a horror reader so I‘m not surprised at my score. 😂
3 faves: Frankenstein (always!), Gone Girl, Rebecca

I‘m surprised I got SEVEN on this list, as someone who‘s really not into scary/creepy/horror! The three on the left are favorites from this list (although I was surprised to see Name of the Rose on there!). The three on the right I‘ve read the book and watched one or more movie adaptations. With Dracula and The Dead Zone, I enjoyed the book more, but Hitchcock‘s Rebecca tops both the book & the recent movie version for me!
Yay! I made top 2%!! But horror is my jam, which is why I couldn‘t pick just three books. 😁 Sorry, @dabbe ! Just FYI—A Short Stay in Hell is not traditional horror. It is a very unique story that will burrow in your head and stay there. One truly horrifying aspect of the story are the numbers (I hated math!) as you try to comprehend the staggering calculations of infinity. 👻👹🧛🏻♀️🧟♀️💀 #TLT #ThreeListThursday

Even though I love spooky reads, I'm not surprised by this score, though it's cool that it turned out to be the number 13. Some of these books look a little out of my horror-reading range just based on their covers alone! Favorites include ...
√THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE by Shirley Jackson
√THE ANNOTATED POE (stories by EA Poe)
√THE ELEMENTALS by Michael McDowell (he wrote the screenplay for BEETLEJUICE!)
I knew going into this #threelistthursday that I was going to have a low score. I'm super picky about spooky reads. But I didn't think it would be this low. 🤣🫠
Here's probably my top three from the list. All three are superbly written:
👻 Our Shade of Night by Mariana Enriquez
🕷 Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
🎃 Jamaica Inn by Daphne Du Maurier
I also enjoy the Brontës around this time.

Not really my area, obviously, though pretty much all of my reads I liked.
Favorites not on the list: We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson, My Cousin Rachel by Daphne Du Maurier, Defekt by Nino Cipri, The Hollow by Agatha Christie, Miss Pym Disposes by Josephine Tey.

Sorry this is a little late. These books are the result of an earlier #tlt from you, Littens, as to what are the best books to read at Halloween.
Share your score (if you want). List 3 faves/3 hates/3 you thought should have been here/3 whatever-you-wants. Tagging a few. ALL are more than welcome to play! 👻🎃💀
