Creepy Book Covers: Part 2

This post is pretty straight forward! You can read my first post of creepy covers here! I’m trying to keep a lot of my posts here for the rest of the month Halloween related so here goes nothing.

Keep in mind these are only covers of books I have either read or are on my TBR. If there are any other super creepy covers you know of let me know in the comments below!

It by Stephen King

Of course I’m going to include this one with its many variations of creepy covers but this is the one I own and its the one that I think looks great and also creepy. I like the big Cheshire cat style clown grin full of teeth, it’s definitely scary!

Unwind by Neal Shusterman

While this might not necessarily be a horror book it seems to have a pretty dark synopsis and the cover is more than a little creepy. Hands pressing against things like that always freaks me out.

---

Say Her Name by James Dawson

Bloody Mary and mirrors make for a pretty scary cover especially with all of that condensation….

---

The Wood by Chelsea Bobulski

I think this cover is gorgeous and creepy all at the same time! The leaf dripping blood is just really neat, maybe I’m strange?

---

The Hollow Girl by Hillary Monahan

Creepy setting, dark, with a creepy girl on the cover = one big creepy.

---

Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

The ghost of Anna standing with blood dripping down her dress on the cover is pretty darn creepy.

---

The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff

Something about old fashioned baby strollers creep me out especially with the creepy little mobile there…..

---

A Drop of Night by Stefan Bachmmann

Also not the creepiest cover on this list but the colors and font give off an eerie vibe in my opinion.

---

Diary of a Haunting by M. Verano

This is super scary looking, anything that’s faceless gives me chills especially with the one girl climbing up the wall. Nope!

---

Bad Girls Don’t Die by Katie Alender

I don’t like anything being covered with fabric like this, it’s always creeped me out and while this one isn’t super terrifying it’s a little bit…uncomfortable to look at!

Have you read any of these books? What did you think?

Do you find any of these covers to be creepy?

Top Ten Tuesday: Creepiest YA Covers

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jamie @ The Broke and the Bookish.

This week’s theme is covers, anything to do with covers! It’ll definitely be interesting to see everyone’s take on this and I decided to go with the creepiest book covers, because I looooove horror books. Of course there are actually quite a few creepy covers out there and these are just a couple of my favorites, some I have read and some are just on my TBR.

I will link up a review if I have one! These are also in no particular order.

10.) And The Trees Crept In (or The Creeper Man) by Dawn Kurtagich

For this book I just HAD to have both the US cover and the UK cover since they’re both creepy as hell! I do love the US cover more because it’s more beautiful than it is creepy but I can’t deny that the UK cover is probably the creepiest book cover I’ve ever seen.

Also the story is creepy and amazing so you can judge this book by its covers! It’s about two girls living in a mansion with their aunt and they notice that the trees are creeping closer to the house and that the entity known as the Creeper Man that watches them from the woods is getting closer too.

9.) The Dead House by Dawn Kurtagich

Two Dawn Kurtagich books? Yes! She’s becoming a queen of YA horror in my book and her covers match the stories perfectly too. This is a very creepy psychological thriller about a girl with a split personality disorder or maybe….it’s something more sinister than that.

8.) Daughters Unto Devils by Amy Lukavics

Creepy cover? Yes! Creepy story? Definitely yes! This one revolves around a family living out on the prairie, their secretly pregnant daughter, and well…..demons. This one is pretty insane but also scary, highly recommend!

7.) The Women in the Walls by Amy Lukavics

I’m sorry! I’m done with the repeat authors now I swear! I really love the typography on this cover, it is super eerie. The story is about a girl whose aunt tragically goes missing and her cousin claims she can hear her dead mother’s voice inside the house’s walls…..

6.) Alice by Christina Henry

I don’t know it could just be me but I find the creepy rabbit head pasted over top a man’s body to be very creepy. This is a very, very graphic horror retelling of Alice in Wonderland and I found it to be absolutely amazing. This one definitely isn’t for the faint-hearted though.

5.) The Girl From The Well by Rin Chupeco

Quick story time: when I was 10 years old I made the mistake of watching “The Grudge” and am now forever terrified of Asian ghosts. Therefore this book’s cover (and the book itself) creeps the shit out of me! It’s a very interesting and scary book revolving around the spirit Okiku, who takes vengeance on wrong-doers.

4.) Slasher Girls & Monster Boys stories selected by April Genevieve Tucholke

Whatever that thing is on the cover it’s disturbing and it creeps me out, but I suppose it fits the stories in this YA anthology perfectly in that case. There are TONS of creeptastic (shhh that’s a word) stories in here and pretty much all of them are amazing with the exception of 1 or 2.

3.) Mary: The Summoning by Hillary Monahan

Is it just me or are mirrors super creepy? So yeah, ghostly reflections in them = creepy. I have yet to read this one but it’s a take on the Bloody Mary urban legend.

---

2.) Asylum by Madeleine Roux

Blurred/scratched out old timey photos are creepy, actually a lot of old photos are creepy but especially when they’re blurred or scratched out. This is a pretty popular book that I also have yet to read but I’m definitely looking forward to seeing if it’s any good.

1.) Shutter by Courtney Alameda

Look at that black, gaping ghost and tell me it isn’t creepy! This is a book I have sitting on my shelf currently awaiting to be read and it’s about teenage ghost hunters basically.
