Why read it?

1 author picked Feral and Hysterical as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It's more of a reference book so I read it in small chunks. I loved the illustrations and added essays by guest authors. It felt a like thorough look at women in horror from the OGs like Mary Shelley and Shirley Jackson to the more recent reads that have overtaken bookshelves. Definitely snag a copy if you need help choosing your next horror read.
