Happy Tuesday! Today’s topic for Top Ten Tuesday is a Halloween freebie, and while I’m not a huge fan of this particular holiday, it does always make me want to curl up with a good spooky mystery – whether it be a cozy or more suspenseful. So I thought I’d take a look at some of my fave Halloween themed (or Halloween adjacent lol) cozy mysteries. I may not have read all of these but I love the authors and/or the series so I know they will all be good!

In the mood for some spookier reads?
What about you? What are some of your fave Halloween themed cozy mysteries? Do you like to read mysteries & suspense novels this time of year?
All of these books look like fun reads.
My post.
These all look like fun Halloween cozy reads. I haven’t read any lately, but I did read Penny Reid’s latest cozy mystery with Jenn and Cletus and it was so much fun! I need to read more cozy mysteries.
i always love her covers!
Thanks so much for including Belinda! I was so glad the publishers changed the cover and added the pumpkins/jack o’lanterns. I knew it was important to let readers know it’s set at Halloween and some Halloweeny shenanigans occur! Some great reads here!
Great twist on this top ten Carrie. I have read a few of these, but not all.
