A Running List of 2024 Horror Book Releases

Looking for a list of horror books that are coming out in 2024? You’re in luck!

With the success of my list in 2023, I have decided to begin a new list looking forward to next year.

I’m going to update this one long-running list of book releases broken out by month, highlighting the books that I am personally looking forward to the most. This list will capture mostly horror, but I just can’t help myself with other books I may be excited about. So you may see a few special highlights for mysteries, thrillers, and a fantasy or two mixed in.

During 2024, this list will be refreshed each month, keeping the latest month at the top, and retiring previous months to the bottom. So stay tuned for more information each month!

Thank you in advance for coming along with this journey! And please note that the links below may include affiliate links.

Horror writers and publishers – If you would like your book added to the list, feel free to comment below!

Now, prepare your To-Be-Read lists, and let’s dive in!
