Introducing D3R’s Ultimate Horror TBR List!
As with our Best Military Science Fiction TBR List, we’ve compiled this list from our own reviews while also incorporating comments made by viewers on our YouTube channel’s videos, and compared against other “Best of” lists (like this one from Goodreads).
Now, we’re not saying this list is complete, far from it. What makes it “ultimate” is that we’re fusing your input with ours and comparing it to other lists and reviews. That way, this TBR will provide you with books sure to creep you out whenever you need a horror fix.
