Steve also worries about his parents, who are understandably struggling to cope with the thought of losing their youngest family member. Most of all, he worries about his newborn baby brother, who is too small and weak to fight the devastating illness he is stricken with. The Nest’s young protagonist, Steve, can count his worries on both hands. It is a pitch-perfect examination of what poorly treated, or entirely untreated, anxiety and trauma can do to a person, with a heaping helping of the uncanny and supernatural thrown into the mix. Kenneth Oppel’s terrifying novel The Nest might be one of the best horror stories ever written.

Dead Silence will have you questioning every bump in the night that you hear. I dare you to not hold your breath while Claire and her companions are navigating the haunted halls of the Aurora.
Once on board the Aurora, it becomes clear that something deeply sinister has happened to the ship and its passengers, and a lucrative endeavor soon turns into a fight for survival. The Aurora, a luxury space liner, has been missing for 20 years, so naturally it’s the last thing Claire and her scrappy and instantly lovable crew expect to find after picking up an emergency signal deep in outer space. Barnes might be just what you’re looking for. If you’re anything like me, you’ve been chasing the high of Aliens and Event Horizon since the first time you watched them, and Dead Silence by S.A. The idea of being trapped on a haunted spaceship filled with horribly mutilated dead bodies that have been missing for decades is even more chilling.
