If you're ready to dive all the way into the Halloween vibes, a thriller or mystery audiobook is a great start. Here are a few titles selected by Spotify's editors that are sure to make your blood run cold.
The Midnight Feast: A Novel Written by Lucy Foley
Narrated by Joe Eyre, Sarah Slimani, Roly Botha, Laurence Dobiesz, and Tuppence Middleton
Lucy Foley's latest murder mystery thriller begins at the opening night of a luxury retreat called the Manor. The infinity pool sparkles and the cocktails are flowing, but under the burning midsummer sun, darkness stirs. Old friends and enemies circulate among the guests. Just outside the grounds, an ancient forest bristles with secrets. It's not too long before the local police are called. Turns out the past has crashed the party-with deadly results.
The Boyfriend: A Psychological Thriller Written by Freida McFadden
Narrated by Victoria Connolly and Adam Blanford
After a tough dating streak, Sydney Shaw finally thinks she's hit the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Then the brutal murder of a young woman-the latest in a string of deaths across the coast-confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them. Now Sydney can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems.
All Hallows: A Novel Written by Christopher Golden
Narrated by January LaVoy and Ron Butler
Christopher Golden is best known for his supernatural thrillers set in deadly, distant locales. But in this suburban drama, he brings the horror home. It's Halloween night, 1984, in Coventry, Massachusetts, and mixed in with the trick-or-treaters are four children who do not belong. They seem terrified and beg the neighborhood kids to keep them safe from The Cunning Man. Strange things are happening, but with families falling apart and the neighborhood splintered by bitterness, who will save the children?
The Only Good Indians Written by Stephen Graham Jones
Narrated by Shaun Taylor-Corbett
This New York Times bestselling novel is equal parts psychological horror and cutting social commentary on identity politics and the American Indian experience. The story follows the lives of four American Indian men and their families, all haunted by a disturbing, deadly event that took place in their youth. Years later, they find themselves tracked by an entity bent on revenge, totally helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in a violent, vengeful way.
All Good People Here: A Novel Written by Ashley Flowers
Narrated by Brittany Pressley, Karissa Vacker, and Ashley Flowers
In this debut novel from the host of the true crime podcast Crime Junkie, a journalist uncovers her hometown's dark secrets when she becomes obsessed with the unsolved murder of her childhood neighbor and the disappearance of another girl 20 years later. Twisty, chilling, and intense, the book asks: What are your neighbors capable of when they think no one is watching?
