There's 'Moonlight Horrors for Teens' which has a collection of short stories. Each story is set in a different moon - lit scenario, like an abandoned moon base or a forest during a full moon. The stories play on common teen fears and add a touch of the supernatural related to the moon.
I also recommend 'The Dark Side of the Moon' by a new author. It follows a teen who discovers a strange portal on a moonlit night that leads to a nightmarish world filled with terrifying creatures. The moon serves as a constant and eerie backdrop in this horror tale.
One great moon - related teen horror fiction book is 'The Hollow Moon' by an unknown author. It tells a spooky story about a group of teens who get trapped on a supposedly haunted moon - like landscape during an eclipse.

Well, 'The Witch of Blackbird Pond' is a great historical fiction teen book. It takes place in colonial America and follows a young girl's struggle to fit in. 'Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry' is set in the segregated South during the Great Depression. It shows the hardships faced by an African - American family. 'Esperanza Rising' is also wonderful, set during the Mexican Revolution, about a girl who has to start a new life in California.
Well, teens are in a stage of life where they are exploring the unknown and their own fears. Moon - themed horror books often tap into that. The moon can represent the unknown, the dark side of nature. For instance, in some books, the moon might be the cause of strange happenings in a small town where teens live. It's like a big, unknowable force that drives the horror plot forward. And also, the moon has a certain beauty to it which makes the contrast with the horror even more interesting.

Sure. 'Legend' by Marie Lu is a great one. It's set in a future where the United States has split into two warring nations. The main characters, Day and June, are on opposite sides but their paths cross in interesting ways. Another good book is 'Across the Universe' by Beth Revis. It involves a spaceship journey to a new planet. 'The 5th Wave' by Rick Yancey is also worth reading. It's about an alien invasion from the perspective of a teen girl.
Sure. 'The Shining' by Stephen King is a great one. It takes place in an isolated hotel with a family trapped there during the winter. The sense of dread builds up slowly as the father succumbs to the hotel's evil influence. Another is 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker. This classic introduced the world to the iconic vampire Count Dracula. It's full of suspense and the Gothic atmosphere is very immersive. And 'Pet Sematary' by Stephen King as well. It plays on the fear of death and the unknown that lies beyond it.
