Good Sunday Evening, Boils Ghouls & Grems! 👻
Are we seriously already a week into November… how did October come and go that quickly?!
And I also can’t believe we’ve already been reading our November Morbid Curiosities for a week now (since Halloween. Yes, I know, we started a day earlier to celebrate All Hallows Eve 🎃) but that only indicates how excited we all were to begin both of the books selected for our November Morbid & Mor(e)bid Curiosities book clubs!

Morbid & Mor(e)bid Curiosities
November 2025
We continue to summon those dark Gothic vibes into the month of November with our two book club picks; both giving us that chilly, brisk late-Autumn feeling with their settings and their stories…
Always Double the troubles 😈
our November morbid curiosities await Us 📚
Our First Morbid Curiosity…
👻 The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson (1959)
As a big Shirley Jackson fan, I was very happy that one of her Gothic Horror Classics was chosen for November’s Morbid Curiosity, as it seemed like a lot of the souls in our book club have been wanting to read this book (and what a perfect time to do so, around Halloween!)
If you haven’t had the pleasure to read this masterpiece but have seen the show, I highly recommend you give the book a chance (and then see how it compares to the Netflix series …😏)

And Our Second Morbid Curiosity…
🔮 Slewfoot by Brom (2021)
Captivated by Brom’s mesmerizing artwork that’s included with the physical copies and truly enchanted by the book’s otherworldly premise, I was so excited when the book club suggested we read Slewfoot for November!
Check to see if this book is available in your area:

(of the Morbid & Mor(e)bid Curiosities Book Clubs Selection Process)
Earlier last month, I posted a thread in each book club for members to suggest horror books they’d like to read in November or books that give you that November or late-Autumn feeling. I was thinking dark witchy/witchcraft vibes, haunting folklore or survival horror themes, and the spooky spirits within the clubs didn’t disappoint in their suggestions!
The chosen Ones 🎱
Now that Fable allows you to put up as many as six books per poll, we can have up to 12 Morbid Curiosities to choose from per month!
For our November selections, we had We Live Here Now by Sarah Pinborough, Jawbone by Monica Ojeda, Blood on Her Tongue by Johanna Van Veen, and The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson for our Morbid Curiosities book club Read Next voting poll.
For our Mor(e)bid Curiosities book club, we had Slewfoot by Brom, Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez, The Invocation by Krystal Sutherland, When the Reckoning Comes by LaTanya McQueen, and Summerside Lake Massacre by L.R.J. Allen.
The Read Next Voting Polls are active and available for 72 hours (~3 days) so that book club members have the opportunity to look up and choose the book they’d like to read and discuss together. And once the poll closed, our fate is sealed.
As our saying goes, “…the mor(e)bid, the merrier…” so if you like book clubs and want to check out the Fable app, we would be happy if you could…
And if you’ve taken the time out of your crazy busy day to read this blog post that catches you up the the morbid curiosities that we’re reading in November, I appreciate your presence! 🖤
Until we meet again,
What are you reading this month?
