We've got a book club that just started here on tPF that you're more than welcome to join! Right now we're reading a book that probably doesn't fit what you like to read the most, but we'd be more than happy to have some horror/ghost stories suggestions during our next vote

Interesting, I would love to join the book club here at tpf!
I've just finished MIRACLE IN THE ANDES by Nando Parrado. It's a true story about the famous 1972 plane crash in Andes. Such a great reading.
lamiastella, can you please direct me to the book club. I cant seem to find it (DOH!)! TIA..
Horror/ghost? If you haven't already read the master of them all, Howard Phillips Lovecraft, you haven't even begun! The phrasing seems a bit archaic to a modern reader, but he is surely equal or superior to Edgar Allen Poe. You can find a complete list of his writing - and even a free link to all of them - at:

Happy horrors to you!:ninja:

There ya go!!! Some Lovecraft! Oooooo.....doesn't get much scarier that that!!!! Then there is always Stephen King, but I'm sure you've already read most of his stuff.
Thank you for suggesting some books I might like.
I used to read Stephen King when I was a kid, but I haven't been able to find any good ones I feel like reading now. I would have liked to read "Rose Red", but unfortunately it has never been published as a book
My biggest problem is finding books what are scary enough.

The advantage of shopping at this site is that they give a description of the book so you know at least it's going to be roughly what you want.

A Winter Haunting by Dan Simmons--it gave me chills and I am a hardcore, not-easily-scared horror fan!! Also, I see folks are recommending HP Lovecraft for "old school" horror but may I say that M. R. James blows Lovecraft away, IMO?
That's my problem as well, I'm pretty hardcore, so the books I read need to be really scary. I like James Herbert, but I have read most of his books.
