Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles.

Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

'Jaws' by Peter Benchley also counts as a horror novel. The idea of a great white shark lurking in the waters and hunting humans was truly terrifying. And 'The Silence of the Lambs' by Thomas Harris.

Well, 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson is a great 20th century horror novel. It creates an atmosphere of psychological horror with the spooky Hill House at its center. Then there's 'Rosemary's Baby' by Ira Levin. It's about a young woman who suspects that her unborn baby is part of a satanic plot. And don't forget 'Pet Sematary' by Stephen King. It has a really creepy concept of an ancient burial ground that brings the dead back in a very wrong way.
