Pick your favorite horror movie, and we'll give you a book rec

Halloween is upon us! If you've been paying attention, you'll know Halloween is my favorite holiday! I love it so much! Honestly, I would dress up and go to haunted houses every day in October if I could. Alas, dressing as a witch or a goblin everyday is generally frowned upon, and there are no haunted houses close enough to my house for me to visit everyday. So how do I get my Halloween fix through the month of October? Movies and books, baby! But how to decide what to read next? I GOT YOU! Pick your favorite of these scary movies, and I'll give you a book to add to your TBR. Reader, beware! A spooky time awaits!

You can give me any holiday and I will tell you why Halloween is better. I would know, I just wrote why Halloween was better than every other holiday but I had to delete it because it was literally a single-spaced page long and no one needs that energy right now.
