10 Of The Creepiest Book Covers Ever Published

They say don’t judge a book by it’s cover, but sometimes that’s impossible, especially when you look at some of the creepiest book covers ever produced…

10. Goosebumps: The Curse Of Camp Cold Lake by R. L. Stine

If this isn’t the creepiest children’s book cover ever created then I’d like to see what is!

9. The Ghost Writer by John Harwood

There’s something pretty harrowing about a pale looking woman falling through the centre of a spiraling staircase, weird!

8. They Thirst by Robert R. McCammon

Just look at the eyes and the mouth, freaky!

7. Sleep Tight by Jeff Jacobson

Don’t let the bed bugs bite…

6. Pride & Prejudice & Zombies by Jane Austen & Seth Grahame-Smith

When a classic piece of literature is given a sick, modern, twist the results were always going to be interesting to say the least.

5. Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

I don’t quite know what’s going on here, but it’s all a bit weird if you ask me!

4. Books Of Blood by Clive Barker

Never has a book cover illustrated the work of Barker quite like the Books of Blood, what you see is what you get, complete and utter weirdness!

3. Child’s Play by Andrew Neiderman

No matter how old you are, it’s enough to give you nightmares!

2. The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff

Is there anything more sinister and eerie than a selection of deadly objects dangling over a pram? I doubt it.

1. The Vivisector by Patrick White

OUCH, just looking at this is making my eyes itch!
