15 Scary YA Books That Are Perfect For Halloween

It's hard to resist the urge to read something spooky in the Fall. Thanks to the chill in the air and the store shelves stocked with ghost-shaped candy, finding yourself in a Halloween frame of mind is inevitable. And when that happens, why not reach for a scary YA book? If you're anything like me, you may find adult horror a bit daunting.

These scary books aimed at teens are a great way to ease yourself into the horror genre, and they make for quick, deliciously creepy Halloween reads. Go ahead and buy a bag of your favorite candy, and prepare for some sleepless nights, because these YA horror novels will keep you turning pages all October long.
