This sounds really good but I'm not a fan of really creepy horror. On a scale from Goosebumps to Pet Sematary, how likely is this book to give me nightmares?

Shannon Purchase Unless you’re extremely sensitive, I’d say you’d be fine. The horror in this book is true to the gothic roots, so nothing super graphic, mostly it’s spooky and atmospheric. Its also very well written, which I think helps…it’s not creepy just for the sake of being creepy, it’s creepy because it works well to highlight the everyday horrors of man vs. man.
Marie Completely unlikely. It's more a thriller, with some romance thrown in for good measure!
Rhinnan i didn't find it creepy or scary at all, but it was very atmospheric.
Patricia I just finished and literally was saying that the "scary" parts are SO subtle but honestly freaked me out that I had trouble sleeping lolol. Not overly graphic, its just the way the author set the scene and its such a spooky atmosphere
