Search the Crypt
If kids are looking for particular things, don't despair. NoveList catalogs by some pretty specific subject headings. For example:
If you like spooky old houses, hotels and asylums:
GN Horror AND (SU Haunted places OR SU Haunted houses) AND RL 4
For books where the teacher changes from nice to nasty on a dime:
GN Horror AND (DE Doppelgangers OR DE *transformations*) AND RL 4
For books starring evil clowns, creepy circuses, and good ol' Slappy the Goosebumps dummy:
GN Horror AND (SU Dolls OR SU Clowns OR SU Carnivals OR SU Ventriloquists) AND RL 4
Scared of tight spaces and isolated places?:
GN Horror AND (SU claustrophobia* OR RV trap*) AND RL 4
Yours in Terror,
