One More for Christmas is an uplifting tale following businesswoman Gail as she summons her estranged family to spend a snowbound Christmas together in Scotland. If you enjoyed these, here are 15 more terrifying titles! I genuinely do not recall having read a scarier book. It’s the perfect thing to read while you’re curled up under the covers! The sequel Doctor Sleep is a little disappointing, though. This one is a historical novel, it just so happens that the author has added a sprinkling of supernatural on top. Probably unnecessary – the lost wreck, cannibalism, freezing conditions, etc. are terrifying enough. Dr Faraday has risen from humble beginnings, as the son of a maid at the wealthy Hundreds Hall, to a practising GP. But he can’t ever quite forget his roots. When he’s given the opportunity to spend time with the Ayres family, who own the hall, he leaps at the chance. But this once-great family is rotted and decayed, and things in Hundreds Hall aren’t quite as they seem.
