Hey everyone! Figured we could use an introduction thread!

I'm Keeley. I'm 24 and I'm a huuuggeee horror buff :)
I love all things horror and am always looking for new books to read/review.
I have two degrees in mental health and can't get enough of Friends, Bob's Burgers, and Game of Thrones.
I also run the Indie Book Club here on goodreads.

Hi everyone! I'm Missy. I'm 34 and I've been in love with horror since 6th grade when I was devouring R.L. Stine and Christopher Pike. I love all dark and twisted books and movies alike. I have 2 boys 8 and 10 and am trying to start them young on horror genre. I've been reading to them Edgar Allen Poe :D

Barb (Boxermommyreads) (boxermommy) | 7 comments Hi guys, I am Barb. My love of horror started when I was in 6th grade and read The Shining in history class - it wasn't actually part of history, but I remember hiding the paperback within my history book so I could read it. My teacher was a dork, what can I say. I read all sorts of genres but always come back to my love of horror. I look forward to participating in the group and I am sure my TBR will get so high it might cave in and cause a horror movie all on its own.

Raelyn | 2 comments Heelllloooo. My name is Raelyn, but you can call me Rae. I am 14 turning 15 in November. I'm a picky reader. If the book is too slow, I'll drop it. I love fast-paced horror books. Mystery and thriller are some favourites of mine as well. I write for fun but hope to enhance my writings because there's always a need for improvement. That's it I guess. Hope to become great friends with everyone!!

Shelleen Toland Hi everyone. I am a horror fan. I turned 50 this year and have been reading horror for years. Stephen King, Dean Koontz, John Saul and always looking for new to me authors.

Chad Lorion (goodreadscomcmichaellorion) Hi, everyone. I read The Stand in junior high back in the early 80s and that was my initial horror fix. It took me the entire school year to read that monster, and I have fond memories of lugging the paperback around, waiting to sneak in reading time during class.

I am not too familiar with YA horror, so looking forward to discovering new authors and stories to read here.
