Bisexual Horror Books by Title

Books

Here's a list of horror novels that have queer content in them. Books that are not overly 'horrific' but contain supernatural creatures in them may be listed in the Queer Vampire, Queer Werewolf or Queer Ghost books.

These are the items that have been found, a general description, and the general rating by the fans. (note: the ratings shows not only how good the story is, but also how well the horror or creatures are portrayed, and openly queer it is. A really good non-gay item might score very low).

This page focuses on all bisexual horror items.
