Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re anything like me, you feel more alive than ever. October is my favorite month where I usually spend most of my time thinking of all of the spooky things that I would like to do, but then just end up making a few batches of Pillsbury pumpkin cookies and calling it a day.

All hope is not lost, though! These graphic novels will help get you in that spooky mood that you’ve been looking for. These suggestions go bump in the night (if you have a cat like I do who always pushes everything off counters) so beware! Light a candle, brew some tea, bake some Halloween treats, and snuggle up with these eerie graphic novels!
