Horror Aficionados discussion

Its summer break for me! Give me all the vacation/summer time type horror!!!

Oooh some of my favorites fall under this category! Summer of Night by Dan Simmons - coming of age horror, kids on bikes, Stranger Things vibes. Hope Warf by Mark Towse - coming of age horror in a touristy beach town. The Forgotten Island by David Sodergren - vacation to Thailand, cosmic horror (?), horror movie vibes.

The Ruins by Scott Smith

First that came to my mind!!! :D

The Elementals, Michael McDowell

Diavola by jennifer Thorne
a dysfunctional family takes a vacation to Italy. Slow burn horror with atmosphere and ghost

I second Anna, Diavola is a perfect summer horror, ghosts and family!

The Elementals is fantastic!

I love this category too. Usually HA does a "horror in the outdoors" type challenge in summer, but I haven't seen any rumblings yet. On my summer list is The Hollows by Mark Edwards, Camp Ghoul Mountain Part VI by Jonathan Raab, and just added Diavola.

The Forgotten Island by David Sodergren

The Lifeguard by Richie Tankersley Cusick (vintage point horror)
