Discounted for October 2025: Chilling Horror, True Crime, and Paranormal Books You Don't Want to Miss!

Christian scriptures tell us that the occult is real, while Catholic priests are thought to have spiritual power over ghosts and evil entities.

But if a priest can cast out demons during the rites of exorcism, does it not imply he has the ability to summon them as well?

In this eye-opening, provocative work, a leading occult scholar examines the Catholic Church's unspoken relationship with forbidden magic by exploring the infamous 17th-century document considered by some to be the most demonic of all occult texts—the Grimoire of Pope Honorius III—and illuminates the Vatican's darkest hidden corners.

In October of 2002, John Allen Muhammad and his 17-year-old protégé, Lee Boyd Malvo, paralyzed the Washington Beltway with a series of sniper attacks.

In this intimate and carefully documented account, social worker Carmeta Albarus, who served on Malvo's defense team and researched his background, details the nature of Malvo's tragic attachment to his perceived "hero father," his indoctrination, and his subsequent dissociation. 

This detailed examination attempts to identify and analyze the underlying clinical psychological, and behavioral processes that led to Malvo's dissociation and turn toward serial violence. 

In April 1981, two white Texas prison officials died at the hands of a black inmate at the Ellis prison farm near Huntsville. The man who admitted to killing them, a burglar named Eroy Brown, surrendered meekly, claiming self-defense.

In any other era of Texas prison history, Brown's fate would have seemed certain: execution. But in light of the landmark prison civil rights case, where a federal judge issued a ruling that found that prison officials had brutally violated the rights of Texas inmates, Brown had a chance of being believed. 

In this jarring account, Michael Berryhill dissects a vast collection of trial documents, exhibits, and journalistic accounts of Brown’s three trials, which ended in his acquittal. 

The mystery of Area 51, the highly classified United States Air Force facility in Nevada, has been whispered about for years.

Collective concerns about what really goes on within the confines of the remote facility have led many to wonder whether UFO research is being conducted, and if so, what those findings will mean for the future of humanity. 

Now UFO writer Susan Wright seeks to answer the riddle once and for all, delving into previously secret government documents, drawing on eyewitness accounts, and ripping the veil of secrecy off Area 51 and the research that really goes on there.

The result is the most shocking and thoroughly documented UFO book you have ever read, a book that demonstrates that for fifty years the U.S. government has had one overriding policy on Area 51: whenever confronted with suspicions, facts, or photographs-conceal, deny and lie...

The exploits of Billy the Kid and Ned Kelly are widely known in the public imaginations of their respective countries, the United States and Australia. But the outlaws’ reputations are so layered with legend and myth, the truth of their lives has become obscure. 

In this adventure-filled double biography, Robert M. Utley uncovers the true stories and parallel courses of the two notorious contemporaries who lived by the gun, were executed while still in their twenties, and remain compelling figures in the folklore of their homelands.

In the seventh book of this twelve book series, B Smith and the other Angels are relieved to finally receive their first mission. They’re tasked with safely escorting a group of human survivors from the zombie-infested streets of London to New Kirkham, a barricaded safe haven in the country. 

B soon discovers that the survivors of the town aren’t representative of the best of humanity. When evil influences make their way to New Kirkham, the humans are forced to choose between honor and safety. 

Seventeen-year-old Kenna Marsden has a secret. She’s haunted by an unexplainable violent tragedy, keeping everyone around her at a forced distance for years.

When she finally finds a friend and life starts looking up, she’s cornered into a new nightmare: her mom and twin sister are attacked, and the dark powers Kenna has fought to suppress return with a vengeance. 

After the assault, Kenna finds herself exiled to a nearby commune, where she’s sent to live with a relative she never knew she had. There, she starts to rebuild her life, find community, and restore hope in finding happiness.

But, the longer she stays at the commune, the more she begins to suspect that her new family may have sinister plans for her…

When Bryan Christy began to investigate the world of reptile smuggling, he had no idea what he would be in for. Throughout the gruesome course of his research, he was bitten between the eyes by a blood python, chased by a mother alligator, and sprayed by a bird-eating tarantula. 

But perhaps most dangerous was coming face to face with Michael J. Van Nostrand, owner of Strictly Reptiles, a thriving family business in Hollywood, Florida—Van Nostrand was suspected of being a reptile smuggler by Special Agent Chip Bepler of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, who devoted years of his life in an obsessive quest to expose The Lizard King's cold-blooded crimes.

The shock ending to this cat-and-mouse game will leave readers fascinated and bewildered.
