Slime and Slashers - Horror, Halloween, Nostalgia | Top 20 "Trashy" Paperbacks From Hell Horror Books | Book Recs Perfect For GarbAugust Readathon @SlimeAndSlashers | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
In this video, I go through my top 20 favorite "trashy" horror "Paperbacks From Hell" books of all-time with you that I consider to be the best "trashy" books I've ever read! These books would make great reading recommendations for the GarbAugust Readathon!
I think I miscounted and gave 19 recs and 2 HM hahahaha. But that's still over 20 when it's all said in done. I would definitely recommend Spectre by Stephen Laws as an additional top 20 trashy book! It's a really fun read, and I'd be happy adding that to my official top 20 since I technically forgot one!
Paperbacks From Hell is a nonfiction book by Grady Hendrix - Here I use the term "Paperbacks from Hell" to describe vintage horror books from the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
