Horror Books by Cassie West

In a rain-drenched Appalachian town choked by secrets and rot, two sisters must choose between survival and sacrifice—or be flayed in the name of tradition.

Fifteen years after escaping Hollow Creek, Emma Blackwood is forced home by a desperate call from her sister. The town is falling apart, marked by hunger, strange symbols, and whispered talk of "the old ways"—rituals once buried, now clawing their way back.

A haunting descent into folk horror, occult ritual, and dread, perfect for fans of Adam Nevill's The Ritual and Stephen Graham Jones's The Only Good Indians.

How many days can you survive inside your mind?

For 2,341 days, Ava has lived by numbers. Every breath timed, every step measured, every moment obeying an obsessive routine designed to keep chaos at bay. As a woman with severe OCD working a dead-end job in urban Boston, control is her only defense against a crumbling reality.

But something else is counting too.

A chilling psychological horror novel of urban isolation, repressed trauma, and unraveling identity. Perfect for fans of The Yellow Wallpaper, House of Leaves, and The Silent Patient.

At Wakefield Hall, the dead don't wait for peace. They wait for the fifth day.

When Isola Wakefield dies, her final will traps the people who wronged her inside her cliffside mansion for a five-day wake—no exits, no excuses, and no inheritance if they disobey.

Outside, a storm batters the cliffs. Inside, frost scrawls words on glass, lights fail, doors lock, and the house begins to take sides. As the vigil ticks toward dawn of the fifth day, Isola's rage turns personal, dragging the truth about Jonas—and twenty-three years of lies—into the open.

Perfect for fans of Simone St. James, Jennifer McMahon, Darcy Coates, Riley Sager, Rachel Harrison, and Catriona Ward.
