The Best of Queer Horror
Nobody does horror like us! The LGBTQIA2S+ community knows what it's like to be made to feel monstrous, which makes for some of the most compelling horror novels. This collection is primarily by queer authors, about queer characters, but I threw the original Carmilla in there too because it's a classic. There's also some nonfiction titles about queer identities and the horror genre, and a few films as well!
