Dark Harvest by whom? There are several books with that name on Goodreads. Thanks!
I'd be up for the Exorcist. I've never read it before.
Cassie if that's the one, wich I think it is, I would definitely go with it.
Cassie wrote: "If you mean this Dark Harvest, it's amazing!"That sounds about perfect for the fall/halloween theme.
I suggest House of Leaves not sure if everyone has done it yet but it's filled with atmosphere (5 1/2 minute hallway or the quarter for those who have read it.) and it's interactive to boot.
I think a classic halloween story would be awesome. I mean, we can only read it once a year in the right atmosphere isn't? It is not the same watching Halloween on february as it is on October. Just sayin'
I recoomend https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... The first book to actually scare me in along time and a fresh new look at a old setting.
There are a few I can think of, but I'm assuming I'm constrained to one nomination, so I have to go with Stewart O'Nan's brilliant "The Night Country".I read it every Halloween anyway (actually, the audiobook is great, so I often listen to it instead), and I'd love some company and for more people to read this book! :-)

Nice! That's going on my to-read list regardless.
The Night Country

[bookcover:A Haunted Life: The True ..."Have you read my latest work?

Thanks Jon. Some people just don't get it.
Dark Harvest was terrific, as was The Halloween Man by Clegg, and The Pumpkin Man by Everson. However, my vote is Harvest Moon, since I like James Moore and have yet to read this.

Something from Robert McCammon? I just finished "Gone South" and while I know that one isnt "horror" it at least showed me what an amazing author he is. Maybe "Swan Song" or "Blue World"?
Liz wrote: "I am on board with..."I just finished this book. It was amazingly graphic and detailed. Cutter has a way with descriptions that few can immolate
Definitely The Exorcist. I was planning on reading that anyway.
Has anyone read THE WICKED by James Newman? It's a perfect Halloween book.
I 2nd the wicked. Never heard of it but the synopsis sounds cool and it got good reviews. The Troop sounds pretty good also.
I also vote for Norman Partridge's "Dark Harvest". I've wanted to read it for years.
