I'm one of them.
I think Jon uses the criteria Horror = Scary as he keeps mentioning this over and over. Personally, I don't think that's the only way to classify Horror.
Having said that - I wouldn't mind going non-public domain for Horror.
Rosemary's Baby came up in nominations in 2011 and that would probably be a great Horror book to read with the group. Another great group read would be
The Exorcist or even a classic King novel like
Salem's Lot. If we ever get another Horror category I'll probably nominate and vote for books like this.
