46 Mystery Books to get in Halloween Spirit

Halloween is approaching and I thought I would do a collection of mystery books &/or series that will get us in the spooky mystery mood.  

I have broken them out by categories to better facilitate your narrowing down your reading list by preference of ghost, witch, vampire, nightmare before Christmas, or general paranormal which includes tarot, tea leaf readers, and vacationing gods etc.  

These are cozy and some a little darker than cozy, but nothing towards the horror or grizzly end.  I promise.  Most of these I have a review of at least one in the series that I have linked to for your convenience.  That review may have links to others in the series I have reviewed in the series as well.
