What makes a great hiking horror novel?
The unknown is also a key factor. In many hiking horror novels, the characters stumble upon something they don't understand, like in 'Annihilation' by Jeff VanderMeer.

Can you recommend some great hiking horror novels?
'Desperation' by Stephen King can also be considered in this category. Although not strictly about hiking, there are elements of being in a desolate, small - town environment that gives a similar sense of dread as one might experience while hiking in an unknown and dangerous place. The strange and malevolent forces at work in the town add to the horror factor.

Encountering strange or unexplained things like mysterious symbols on trees, old and creepy cabins in the middle of nowhere, or seeing apparitions. It's the unknown nature of these things that makes them so terrifying. For instance, a hiker might see a figure that disappears when they look directly at it, leaving them to wonder if it was real or just their imagination playing tricks on them.

Getting lost is quite common. The Grand Canyon is vast, and if you lose your way, it can be really scary. Some hikers might misread the trail markers or just wander off the path.
