The most popular occult horror books

Occult horror deals in demons, possession and forbidden knowledge. Someone opens a book they should not have read, joins a circle they cannot leave, or finds that a loved one is no longer themselves. Expect exorcisms, witchcraft, secret societies and rituals that work, at a terrible price.
