Why read it?

1 author picked House of Slaughter as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Despite being a spin-off of the equally gruesome but less queer Something is Killing the Children, this graphic novels stands all on its own and deserves a spot on the list. Although, please consider yourself warned, as this is not a story for the faint of heart. This graphic novel is very much the origin story of a character who is mostly portrayed as more of a villain in the main series. This installment, however, is just as harrowing, and terrifying as the original, with gorgeous, vibrant panels that somehow manages to turn gore into fine art.
