Answered a promptWhat is the scariest horror book you have ever read?
Atmospheric. A good cast.
This is my absolute favourite horror book so far. The pacing is great, the city seems so alive (or dead). The characters are clearly written. And there were some of the creepiest parts I've ever read.
Compared to "Pet Sementary", I think "Salem's Lot" is better because the overall package is just so coherent. There's also no hanger. But "Pet Sementary" remains the scariest in general of them which I have read.
