Clown in a Cornfield Series

(1 review)

Clown in a Cornfield is the ultimate YA horror series if you're after books about eerily quiet towns and creepy clowns that are nothing short of thrilling jump scares! If you get scared easily, consider yourself warned: you may want to pick up a different book. 

The books follow main character Quinn Maybrook, who together with her father moves to Kettle Springs. The town is quiet, but everyone knows still waters run deep. And deep in this town, a scary clown called Frendo is on a killing spree. His victims? Teens. And he is not the only clown with homicidal instincts.  

The books are all written by Adam Cesare, winner of the Bram Stoker Award and author of Influencer.

The bestselling and award-winning books are now a film starring Katie Douglas from Ginny and Georgia, and are perfect for fans of the FNAF books and Red Eye. If you enjoyed this series and are on the hunt for more YA horror, check out our selection of our Best Horror Books for Teens.
