They describe things in such a detailed way (visually and psychologically) that I am petrified. I have a similiar reaction to R.L. Stine's Fear Street Saga of books. Not the Fear Street individuals (I loved the Cheerleader ones), but the historical 'How Fear Street Came To Be' books. In The Betrayal, I think, there's a scene where a person is killed by stuffing uncooked bread into their mouth, gagging them and binding them to a woodstove with the grill open. The bread expanded, as yeast does, and slowly BAKED inside that person's mouth, suffocating them and all sorts of other things I vaguely remember in a 'block this memory for sanity reasons' sort of way.
And less spooky, but equally terrifying, is a book called Return to the Secret Garden by Susan Moody. The character assassinations and plot butchering (not to mention relationship hacking) that woman did to a beloved tale of my youth still gives me horrors when I hear a beloved classic has a sequel.


This is a little off topic but I have to ask have you read Montana Sky, its supposed to be a romance and it does have it in it but it also has a very twisted murderer, it makes my stomach turn when they talk about what he does to his victims. Maybe it just me, But still I can't seem to put it down.
