20 of the Best Genre-Blending Horror Novels

"Horror, with its creepy crawlies, its ghostly visions, its monsters lurking just behind that door, can benefit from more light-hearted subplots, like a romance or a family element, a touching friendship story, or a romp into the fantastical. The movie Spontaneous is horror, comedy, romance, and a coming-of-age story all in one! It, too, has a coming-of-age element while the clown wreaks his havoc. These additions to the story just make it all the more impactful when the monster calls.
If you're interested in exploring the best genre-blending horror novels, look no further! Here are 20 to get you started."
