Discover what could be in your Horror Book Subscription!
Supernatural Horror
Your horror book subscription could include Supernatural Horror filled with ghosts, hauntings and sinister forces, where the line between the living and the unknown becomes increasingly blurred. Expect chilling stories built around dread, suspense and things that should probably stay unexplained.
Gothic Horror
Crumbling houses, buried secrets and oppressive atmospheres all have a place in our horror book subscription box. Gothic Horror delivers slow-building dread, haunted histories and eerie stories where the past has a habit of refusing to stay buried.
Psychological Horror
If you prefer horror that gets inside your head, your horror book subscription can explore Psychological Horror packed with unreliable minds, creeping paranoia and disturbing secrets. These unsettling stories often leave you questioning what - or who - can really be trusted.
Folk Horror
Ancient rituals, isolated communities and sinister traditions bring a very different kind of fear to your horror book subscription box. Folk Horror turns rural landscapes, old beliefs and close-knit communities into something deeply unsettling and dangerous.
Slasher Horror
For faster-paced scares, our horror book subscription can venture into Slasher territory, with masked killers, isolated settings, bloody survival games and plenty of suspense. Perfect for readers who enjoy high body counts, relentless tension and final-girl energy.
And Much More!
There’s plenty more to discover in your horror book subscription box, from haunted-house stories and occult horror to creature features, body horror, cosmic horror and atmospheric slow burns — all personalised around the kind of scares you enjoy most.
Can't Decide on Just One Genre?
Love more than one of genre? Our Build Your Own Book Subscription is perfect for readers who don’t want to be limited to a single genre. Simply choose two genres you enjoy, and we’ll carefully select two brand new books just for you - combining the best of both worlds in one personalised box.
What is the Book Box?
The Book Box is a book subscription box that puts the books first! We don't jam pack your box with wasteful nicknacks, instead we spend the time and effort finding the right book for you.
After you make a purchase we ask a couple of questions about your reading preferences (this only takes five minutes) and then we handle the rest from there!
Each book subscription box is filled with handpicked books specifically ordered for every customer.
TLDR: We find books you will love, and send them to your door!
What if I have already read the book(s)?
This is a fair question, and one expected to be asked. Don't worry, we have thought about this!
Firstly to avoid filling your book subscription box with books you've already read, we will look at your Goodreads (or other reading app) and cross reference our picks with this!
If you don't have a reading app, you can send us a picture of your bookshelf and we can use that instead.
In the unlikely event that we do send you a book you have already read, don't worry! Free returns are available!
