Horror Reviewer Directory




👀 at this cute graphic created by Erica Robyn!


Are you a reader looking for scary book recommendations? Are you an author needing some reviews? Well, look no further than this list right here. These are the people you need to know. They live and breathe horror and LOVE to talk about it all over the internet.

Please know that this list is a work in progress. I will be adding more names and social media links as they are submitted. If you find are an active reader who reviews horror fiction regularly (at least 50% horror fiction) please submit all social media links you want included in the comments. Feel free to share this list but please credit me as the originator of the list. I will also be checking it every quarter to remove inactive blogs and those who have switched their focus from horror to other genres. If you do not review at least one horror novel a month you will be removed from the list. If I have to dig for pages to find a horror review you will not be put on the list. If you decide in the future to cover horror fiction regularly and want to be put back on the list please leave a comment. I'm also removing all blogs/accts that go inactive and/or try to give me a sinister little virus! It's nothing personal, I'd simply like to keep this current & horror focused & safe from evil. 

You do not have to be affiliated with a huge blog or publication. If you review for Amazon and/or Goodreads on a regular basis and do not have a blog, that is perfectly fine. All avid horror readers who also review for free are welcome on this list!

Please alert me to any broken links you find! I try my best to periodically check them, but I don't always catch them.

I will only add new people who include their complete URL's and tell me which category they prefer to be listed under. Thank you for understanding.

Authors: These are all active reader/reviewers but some may be "booked up" with ARC's at the moment. Please read their individual review policies to see if they're currently accepting books to review.

Horror Fiction Websites/Bloggers/Goodreads Reviewers

(these readers review all horror or a good portion of horror on their blogs) 

Please read individual review policies before contacting these reviewers! I try to update every few months but most of us go off and on ARC hiatus and I simply can't keep up.

Author Bloggers

(these amazing people write books & also review them too)

Booktubers

(these people review horror fiction on the YouTubes AKA Booktube)


Bookstagram

(Please note: if any of these folks have a blog that I have found they will usually be listed there instead with a link to their Bookstagram account)


Indie Bookstores

If you're looking to spend your book $ on shops that celebrate indie horror publishing, this list is for you!

    Are you still adding to this? If so, I'd love to be included. I review books on Twitter & Goodreads, at least 3-5 a month, and reviews can be requested through my Twitter DMs. Thanks for your time!

    I review a few ARCs per month, typically, and only take on what I can manage, as I also run a small horror press, but I'm happy to be contacted for review requests. I have about 4k followers across BlueSky, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. I'm not a big deal, but I do write thoughtful reviews (see my website at whisperhousepress.com for examples, though I also post them to bookbub, goodreads, and (weird, but NetGalley seems to like this) linkedin).

Bird Box by Josh Malerman Review

Image
I know, I know, I am the LAST one to review Bird Box but here ya go. Bird  Box by Josh Malerman , narrated by Cassandra Campbell Audiobook   Dark Fiction , 9+ Hours Released May 2014 Goodreads  | Buy A Copy Here   Something is out there, something terrifying that must not be seen. One glimpse of it, and a person is driven to deadly violence. No one knows what it is or where it came from. Five years after it began, a handful of scattered survivors remains, including Malorie and her two young children. Living in an abandoned house near the river, she has dreamed of fleeing to a place where they might be safe. Now that the boy and girl are four, it's time to go, but the journey ahead will be terrifying: twenty miles downriver in a rowboat--blindfolded--with nothing to rely on but her wits and the children’s trained ears. One wrong choice and they will die. Something is following them all the while, but is it man, animal, or monster? Interweaving past an...

Freebies from my Amazon Wishlist

Image
I just realized Amazon reinstated the sort low to high feature so guess what I can do now?! Yes, here are today's freebies from my shamefully long, very eclectic wishlist! Hopefully there's a little freebie goodness for everyone. Grab 'em while they're free and/or on sale! FREE! Horror/Fantasy/Paranormal The world is lying to you. Is that news? It must be very upsetting.  Richard Fitcher found it upsetting. He’s a witch hunter who doesn’t believe in witches, and tonight he’s taking a reporter and her cameraman on a witch hunt. He’s all ready to jazz it up with spooky noises and a gimmicky magic ritual that locates witches. People like that kind of crap, right? But there’s a problem. It worked this time. So now Richard is forced to call up old knowledge and power he didn’t believe to be real, challenging things that crawled out of the pit, if he has any hope of surviving the night. But this loser might actually find some value—the pit does have a t...

Review: The Lesser Dead by Christopher Buehlman

Image
Hopefully this one makes up for my horrible Bird Eater review! The Lesser Dead by Christopher Buehlman   Vampire Horror Fiction Audiobook 9 hours and 40 minutes Released October 2014  Amazon ♦ Goodreads The secret is, vampires are real and I am one. The secret is, I’m stealing from you what is most truly yours and I’m not sorry— New York City in 1978 is a dirty, dangerous place to live. And die. Joey Peacock knows this as well as anybody—he has spent the last forty years as an adolescent vampire, perfecting the routine he now enjoys: womanizing in punk clubs and discotheques, feeding by night, and sleeping by day with others of his kind in the macabre labyrinth under the city’s sidewalks. The subways are his playground and his highway, shuttling him throughout Manhattan to bleed the unsuspecting in the Sheep Meadow of Central Park or in the backseats of Checker cabs, or even those in their own apartments who are too hypnotized by sitcoms to notice him ope...
