Hi guys, I'm Zeynep from Türkiye and ı hope everyone is well. In the fall and winter ı like to read or watch a lot of horror, thriller, spooky stuff. I just don't like too much blood and exaggerated stuff. I joined the group to make new friends and to get informed. thank u
Hello Everyone! I love spooky, paranormal, horror that is not slasher. I have written an encyclopedia that discusses monsters from around the world. I just love the classics like Frankenstein. I am a fan of Science Fiction as well. One of my favorites being a books called Darwinia. I really enjoyed its alternate timeline and imaginative story line. Awesome to join you here!
Hello, all! I read mostly sci-fi and fantasy, but have branched into horror over the last few months. My most recent horror read was Meddling Kids. Think Scooby-Doo and the gang grown up and dealing with the trauma. I thought it was a great read. Next on horror list is going to be Salem's Lot. Looking forward to expanding my TBR with some good recs. Always open to adding friends as well. Thanks for having me.

hey there :) I'm Meg. I find horror (and fantasy and sci-fi) fascinating and can't wait to explore more of the genre through reading!
Hello, I’m an author who has just published my first short cosmic horror novel, based on one of my adventures for the role-playing game Call of Cthulhu.

Hello, My names Emma I’m from Australia and a huge horror/ Thriller fan in terms of books and movies.
I have only just joined Goodreads so any advice on navigating it would be appreciated. My current read is Tender in the flesh. I tend to get through 2-3 books per week.
Greetings and salutations friendo Emma.
Best I can say is don't get overwhelmed, look at the various things on GR a bit at a time until you're more familiar. You can usually Google and get answers (i.e. "how do you do [blank] on GR") and/or feel free to ask here.

Hello Emma and welcome! I agree with Alan, just play around and explore and feel free to ask for help.

Hello, my name is Jackson. I started reading in December 2024 so that makes me a newish reader. So far, I've read a bunch of Stephen King books and he is my favorite author at the moment. I also like sci-fi, post-apocalyptic, and classic books.
Hi all! I'm Flora and I'm new to the group, but not necessarily new to Goodreads. I only just recently got back into reading. Started again in November of last year, so I'm just getting back into the groove of it. I'm slow at reading right now, but man, I missed it. I just finished the Buffalo Hunter Hunter today and I'm always on the lookout for new horror and thriller titles to pick up.
Hola I'm Deus and I've just read my first book! It was sci-fi but I love horror, especially arthouse horror and anything with witches, demons, and cults!
Hi everyone! I'm Connor from North West England. I am really into horror books and I'm always looking for recommendations. Feel free to add me as a friend and/or send me suggestions on more books to read!
Hi! My name is Vanessa Jones, I live in Tasmania - arguably the most haunted place in Australia. I love it here, and I love reading horror.
Hello all! I am an avid reader and former college literature professor. I love several genres, but Horror holds a special place in my heart. I have just joined Goodreads, so my profile page still needs work. Right after joining, I joined this group. I love the classics such as Frankenstein and Dracula and I am a big fan of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. I also really enjoyed Those Who Hunt the Night (Hambly) and Wolf's Hour (McCammon). And yes, I am an author but will only post about that on the author page. Looking forward to reading some great discussions and adding my two cents worth from time to time.

Hey all I'm Brittany. I'm trying to become a reader again after not picking up a book in forever. I really enjoy thriller and horror books. I'm currently reading Zero Sum Game by SL Huang with my bf, and The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix on my own. I don't have any friends here yet but I'd love to make some so I can see what books everyone else is reading!
Hi Brittany, welcome to HA! It's never ever too late to pick up a book or become a reader again :) happy to have you here with us.
Hey there! I'm Kevin, reader and writer of all things horror. I just recently made a goodreads account and came across this community and thought, these are my people. I especially like Lovecraftian, cosmic horror stories above all else but have a soft spot in my heart for the traditional stuff as well. I look forward to getting to know everyone and learning what you all are reading!
