Three 2022 Horror Books I Want To Read

Hey everyone,

So I recently started dabbling in that cute girl called Tiktok. The short story is I made a video on three anticipated Horror releases for 2022. I am loving all the horror aesthetics coming for us next year. Erewhon’s got some up their beautiful sleeves. Tor’s doing the thing. Harper Voyager is getting gothic. Everything is sweet, spicy, and gory. Here are just a few 2022 releases I’m looking forward to in the coming year.

The books I’m talking about? I’ve got a few selected but I intend to grow the list of horror releasing as publishers start announcing them. More juicy things to come.

The Hacienda by Isabel Canãs

Berkley, Penguin Random House

Adult Gothic Horror

Release date: May 10th, 2022

Berkley compares this one to Mexican Gothic. I’m hoping to love this one just as much. Anyways the juicy bits you should know about (purely off the author’s tweets about it)

• Gothic Horror
• Let us bless Latinx horror
• Haunted House
• Hot priests
• Witches
• Set in Mexico

Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin

Tor Nightfire, Macmillan

Adult Horror

Release date: February 22

This horror uses post-apolaypse as a backdrop to a story about trans women’s survival. Trans women harvest organs.

• trans author
• trans women hunt feral men
• set in New England
• forest horror

Juniper and Thorn by Ava Reid

Harper Voyager, HarperCollins

Adult Gothic Horror/Fantasy

Release date: June 7th

I loved Ava Reid’s debut. Just the type of writing that makes me want to bite my nails. That type of emotionally wrecked good writing. Ava and Wednesday Books author, Alison Saft, did a Q & A on Instagram not long ago. Ava mentioned some things and I’m very happy about it. Reasons for you to preorder:

• Gothic horror retelling of The Juniper Tree
• Monsters
• Witches
• A Ballet dancer love interest
• discussions of mental health and abuse
• Rage and sadness
• nonbinary author

Already obsessed.
