I love these creepy covers!
I'll be the first to admit, I am not a fan of scary books. I don't usually read books that I know will freak me out. (Obviously, I don't watch scary movies for the same reason - they freak me out more.) But, I do enjoy, now and then, a spooky or creepy book that gives me just the right amount of chill factor, but won't give me nightmares. So, in that vein, here is my list of the spooky and creepy, but definitely not the horrifying.
