Paranormal Deep Dive

Paranormal is the melting pot of several sub-genres that got large enough to form it's own home.  Generally speaking, Paranormal is urban fantasy that limits itself generally to ghosts, vampires, werewolves, shifters, and other creatures.  It should be noted that Paranormal has strongly established tropes in its sub-genres.  The meta-humans in Paranormal are not typically monsters.  You'll find the monster versions of these meta-humans in Horror.  Research of your chosen sub-genre is strongly advised.

I see a lot of favorite stories and authors on this list, and a few I'm not familiar with. Time to look around some more. Thanks for this post!

And to echo @WolfM's comment, I am humbled to be included with authors I consider to be SO much better than myself.

Thank you to all my followers!

Congratulations @Justin4Fun.  Having two books on the list is a great start!  They are both worthy of being among those listed.

If you're up for a taste of cosmic horror, try my own brew, The Big Empty.

I do enjoy Cosmic Horror and Existential Horror. The greatest fear that you can instill in humans isn't death, it's the meaningless and endless life outside your own control. Death would be a mercy to people forced to live like that.
