Best Answer

Horror books and Fantasy Books are distinct genres. While both genres often feature supernatural elements, horror typically focuses on creating fear and suspense, while fantasy tends to involve magical or otherworldly elements in a more imaginative setting. However, there can be crossover between the two genres, leading to some horror books being categorized as fantasy as well.
