Launched in 2019, Nightfire, the new horror imprint from Tor, encompasses the breadth of horror, from short story collections to novellas and novels, from standalone works to series, from dark fantasy to the supernatural, from originals to reprints of lost modern classics. Nightfire’s novels are now appearing on shelves in bookstores and libraries near you. Do you dare stretch the spines on these terrifying titles this autumn? Because to me, being pursued by a killer is even worse if you’re doing it in the snow. You can always remove layers if it’s too hot outside, but who has time to bundle up when they’re fleeing a killer? You’re being chased through a blizzard by a killer, with zero visibility and freezing temperatures. Have you ever tried running in snow? It’s not easy to do! Or maybe because the conditions outside are so bad, you have to stay inside with a killer. That’s also terrible! But while I don’t like winter weather, there’s something so cozy about curling up and reading about other people’s misfortunes in snowy conditions. (This will henceforth be known as schadenfreuzen.) Whether it’s a murderous human, or ghost, or an angry figure of holiday folklore, here are 10 great winter thrillers to delight and frighten (delighten?) you.
