Friday Fives - Five Books with Spooky Settings


I'm in a list making kind of mood so I thought I'd start making random five lists.  Sometimes they'll be bookish other weeks not so much.  I'm reading spooky books in October and I'm picking 5 books that look like they have spooky settings.


1.  The Unknown by Riley Sager - A remote island in Vermont sounds fairly terrifying - especially in Sager's hands.


2.  The Last Party by Clare Mackintosh - Another remote setting - this time in a mountain village in North Wales.


3.  The Broken Girls by Simone St. James - Back to Vermont but this time to a haunted abandoned boarding school


4.  The Curse of Penryth Hall by Jess Armstrong - A Cornish setting and the promise of a spooky house.  How can I resist?


5.  Return to Wyldcliffe Heights by Carol Goodman - The cover alone gives spooky setting vibes.

What spooky setting books do you have on your TBR?
