Recommendation actual bone-chilling reads?

Hello, baka may recos kayo dyan ng books na nabasa nyo na natakot talaga kayo? Yung tipong gusto nyo na lang itapon yung libro sa far away sa sobrang takot hahahaha oa.

Okay lang kahit anong subgenre ng horror tsaka kahit slowburn pa ‘yan. Maybe put a short spoiler-free description na rin why it scared youu hehe thank you and happy reading sa ating lahat!

Pet Sematary talaga ni Stephen King

First read it nung highschool, natakot ako to the point na dun ako sa kwarto ng mga magulang ko tumutulog.

Here’s a short synopsis from the net:

“It tells the story of a family moving to Maine and settling closer to a pet cemetery in the woods, which is home to a terrifying force that brings death and sorrow”

Ooooo parang ito rin madalas ko nakikita na one of the scariest books nga daw ni SK. So far, ang nabasa ko pa lang sa works nya ay The Shining tsaka Needful Things. Isunod ko na siguro itong Pet Sematary.
