About this listen
John Ajvide Lindqvist’s international bestseller Let the Right One In is “a brilliant take on the vampire myth, and a roaring good story” (New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong), the basis for the multi-film festival award-winning Swedish film, the U.S. adaptation Let Me In directed by Matt Reeves (The Batman), and the Showtime TV series.
It is autumn 1981 when inconceivable horror comes to Blackeberg, a suburb in Sweden. The body of a teenager is found, emptied of blood, the murder rumored to be part of a ritual killing. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last—revenge for the bullying he endures at school, day after day.
But the murder is not the most important thing on his mind. A new girl has moved in next door—a girl who has never seen a Rubik’s Cube before, but who can solve it at once. There is something wrong with her, though, something odd. And she only comes out at night. . .

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,980
When struggling riverboat captain Abner Marsh receives an offer of partnership from a wealthy aristocrat, he suspects something’s amiss. But when he meets the hauntingly pale, steely-eyed Joshua York, he is certain. For York doesn’t care that the icy winter of 1857 has wiped out all but one of Marsh’s dilapidated fleet. Nor does he care that he won’t earn back his investment in a decade. York has his own reasons for wanting to traverse the powerful Mississippi. And they are to be none of Marsh’s concern - no matter how bizarre, arbitrary, or capricious his actions may prove.

Four families wake up one morning in their trailer on an ordinary campsite. However, during the night, something strange has happened. Everything outside the camping grounds has disappeared, and the world has been transformed into an endless expanse of grass.

As the holiday-makers try to come to terms with what has happened, they are forced to confront their deepest fears and secret desires.

In upstate New York, in the woods around Woodstock, Dutchman's Creek flows out of the Ashokan Reservoir. Steep-banked, fast-moving, it offers the promise of fine fishing, and of something more, a possibility too fantastic to be true. When Abe and Dan, two widowers who have found solace in each other's company and a shared passion for fishing, hear rumors of the Creek, and what might be found there, the remedy to both their losses, they dismiss it as just another fish story.

Featured Article: The top 100 horror books of all time
This list encompasses the full spectrum of what horror can be—campfire-worthy tales, stomach-churning gore, and incisive social commentary. The classics are accounted for, but it also spotlights more recent titles, because that’s the nature of the genre—it is as perennial as it is ever-evolving, conjuring whatever frights most haunt our collective consciousness. Each title does have one thing in common: It makes for devilishly good listening. So cut the lights and press play—if you dare.

It is autumn 1981 when inconceivable horror comes to Blackeberg, a suburb in Sweden. The body of a teenager is found, emptied of blood, the murder rumored to be part of a ritual killing. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last—revenge for the bullying he endures at school, day after day. But the murder is not the most important thing on his mind. A new girl has moved in next door—a girl who has never seen a Rubik's Cube before, but who can solve it at once. There is something wrong with her, though, something odd. And she only comes out at night.

Two years later, alone and more or less permanently drunk, Anders returns to the island to regroup. He slowly realizes that people are not telling him all they know....

Four families wake up one morning in their trailer on an ordinary campsite. However, during the night, something strange has happened. Everything outside the camping grounds has disappeared, and the world has been transformed into an endless expanse of grass. The sky is blue, but there is no sign of the sun; there are no trees, no flowers, no birds. And every radio plays nothing but the songs of '60s pop icon Peter Himmelstrand. As the holiday-makers try to come to terms with what has happened, they are forced to confront their deepest fears and secret desires.

It was a dark and stormy night when Mary Crane glimpsed the unlit neon sign announcing the vacancy at the Bates Motel. Exhausted, lost, and at the end of her rope, she was eager for a hot shower and a bed for the night. Her room was musty, but clean, and the manager seemed nice, if a little odd.

„‚American Psycho’ läuft drohend, grollend wie ein Unwetter an, und plötzlich schlägt der grausame Blitz ein: Die Banalität des Schrecklichen, die wir verdrängen wollen, trifft uns und zwingt uns, das Unerträgliche wahrzunehmen: die Oberflächlichkeit, die Brutalität, mit der wir uns abfinden. In einer Medienwelt, die jedes Thema lächelnd in drei Minuten abhandelt - vom Holocaust über die Salatbar zum Krieg – ist dieses Buch ein Schuss ins Herz, Picassos ‚Guernica’ vergleichbar.“ Elke Heidenreich.

This Lovecraft classic is a must-have for every fan of classic terror. When a geologist leads an expedition to the Antarctic plateau, his aim is to find rock and plant specimens from deep within the continent. The barren landscape offers no evidence of any life form - until they stumble upon the ruins of a lost civilization. Strange fossils of creatures unknown to man lead the team deeper, where they find carved stones dating back millions of years.

Suburbia. Shady, tree-lined streets; well-tended lawns; and cozy homes. A nice, quiet place to grow up. Unless you are teenage Meg or her crippled sister, Susan. On a dead-end street, in the dark, damp basement of the Chandler house, Meg and Susan are left captive to the savage whims and rages of a distant aunt who is rapidly descending into madness. It is a madness that infects all three of her sons and finally the entire neighborhood. Only one troubled boy stands hesitantly between Meg and Susan and their cruel, torturous deaths.

An exploration of the complexity of youth (with Vampires)
In this modern age, a good vampire story is quite hard to come by which makes this work all the more enticing. It is likely this book ranks among the darkest of novels but earns that title not through shock factor or traditional terror but by showing a reality so stark it will make you believe it’s a true story. Amazingly, and even more fascinating and disturbing, is that this is not even the heart of the tale. Childhood and the difficulties that come with it is the focus of this darkness, a pitch black that is inconceivably deep and yet never completely obscures the wonder and lightness of being young. The juxtaposition of eternal existence as a damned creature, cursed to live forever as a child, with the loss of innocence that traditionally signifies childhood’s end is a masterstroke by Lindqvist that makes this book so much more than the sum of its parts.

So Mixed on This One
This was a wierd book for me. It started off so slow that I almost stopped in the first hour. I held and and it soon started to get good, then it died down again, then it got really good, and then just kinda ended abruptly with no follow through. I'm not sad I spent time on it, but I'm also not exactly thrilled.

Well-written Horror Story
Narrator fabulous.
well-written
story dark and sad.
themes of child abuse, torture, bullying, alcoholism, addiction.
the sodomizing zombie was an original touch
disappointing that the tale basically promotes violence as a way to solve problems

Weird, tragic, disturbing, heartfelt
This is a character driven story. Something most books I read fail to accomplish. These character feel like they’re children. All the characters, even the disgusting ones, have motive, morals, sympathy, ect. The plot is good but it’s the characters that make it great.

Crazy how a plot with such a strong Supernatural presence can be the novel that drives home such big, and important truths about human nature. The inner dialogue and conflicting emotions were very believable.

Not my favorite. Hard to stay invested. Only enjoyed the interactions between Oscar and Eli. The rest was just filler to me that I couldn’t get into. I heard good things about this and I really gave it a try. Not for me though. It was meh.

Best modern vampire story I’ve ever heard
In an era of “interpretations” of vampires, it’s really refreshing to see a return to form to the vampire stories we all heard growing up that left a mark on all of us. Highly recommended this book to anyone who loves a good fright.
