Manga fans can show their love for one of the genre’s creepiest horror series, Uzumaki, in this lightweight hoodie ($34.85 from Redbubble). With its spectacularly disturbing artwork, it’s a great addition to your horror hoodie collection. Coffee lovers will enjoy this hoodie with a little twist on one of the defining novels of the horror genre, Dracula. Grab yourself a cup, crack open Bram Stoker’s finest (seriously, best to avoid The Lair of the White Worm), and snuggle up in this quirky design ($43.23 from Redbubble). Prefer a more modern take on your Dracula story? This hoodie ($43.23 from Redbubble) featuring Alucard from Hellsing is another great pick for manga and horror fans. Want to pay homage to the woman who wrote a classic horror novel while also casually inventing the sci-fi genre? Then this hoodie featuring Mary Shelley ($39.90 from Redbubble) is the perfect choice. Bonus giggles for pun lovers. A subtle nod to Shelley’s most famous work, Frankenstein, this is a hoodie you can wear all year round ($41.56 from Redbubble). You might have to answer a few well-meaning questions about what Ingolstadt was like, but this one’s a great way to recognise other classic horror readers. The Ring novels inspired one of the scariest films I’ve ever seen (thanks, night terrors), and this hoodie featuring the supernatural Sadako ($34.85 from Redbubble) is bringing back all the creepy memories. The design is simple, but eerily effective – a great choice for Halloween night. Both the original novel and the film adaptation of The Exorcist were a global sensation, sparking a fascination for demons and the struggle for the soul that many other subsequent books and films have copied. This hoodie invokes both, and is a delightfully sinister choice for Halloween ($39.90 from Redbubble). Referencing one of Stephen King’s best-known novels, The Shining, and the iconic film of the same name, this Overlook Hotel hoodie ($33.95 from Redbubble) is another excellent choice for horror fans. Just stay out of Room 217. I Know What You Did Last Summer is a horror classic for older millennials like myself, but the book it was based on is less well-known (and involves much less slashing). This striking hoodie ($36.00 from Etsy) will keep you warm now summer’s over. If you’re stuck for a quick Halloween costume, this Frankenstein’s monster hoodie ($65.00 from Etsy) is the perfect choice (and can easily double as a zombie outfit). The bright green will make you stand out, especially if you add some face paint and neck bolts to give it your best Boris Karloff.
