Goodreads Fall Challenge - Spine Tinglers

Ten Years of Horror Hits to Read This October
Posted by Cybil on September 29, 2025
"This collection looks back on the past 10 years of horror novels and short fiction collections, but with a twist. The books below represent the most popular titles of the past decade, according to the Goodreads community at large. It's a curated list based on reader ratings and shelvings—the books that end up most often on members' Read, Currently Reading, and Want to Read shelves.

From there, we have sorted the books by publication year. In other words, these are the past decade's most popular books according to Goodreads regulars as of now, with each book sorted into the year in which it hit shelves. It's an interesting way to see which scary stories continue to resonate with your fellow readers, and when they came out."
