Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, Jane Austen and Ben H. Winters
Take Jane Austen’s classic tale of social commentary, then add in some killer octopi hunting the Dashwood sisters. You get all the smarts of Austen, with the insanity of sea monsters. What could go wrong?

Alice in Zombieland, Lewis Carroll and Nickolas Cook
Carroll’s classic tale of a strange world through the looking glass is an easy target to freak-up with some sci-fi elements. In this case? Zombies. Lots and lots of zombies, plus a storyline that makes you ask: Is Alice a zombie herself?

The War of the Worlds, Plus Blood, Guts and Zombies, H.G. Wells and Eric S. BrownWell’s classic alien invasion story was already pretty heavy on the sci-fi craziness. But, throw in a zombie apocalypse and you have an even crazier story.

Jane Slayre, Charlotte Bronte and Sherri Browning Erwin
Bronte’s classic story is chock full of social criticism, and though it’s a window into the era, it can also get a little dull. So, to keep it interesting, Erwin turned her into a vampire-slaying ass-kicker on the side.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Zombie Jim, Mark Twain and W. Bill Czolgosz
This classic tale of a young boy’s journey that tackles the issue of slavery is reimagined here with zombies as the new social group at the center of the tale. Which, admittedly, makes it a lot creepier.

The Undead World of Oz: L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Complete with Zombies and Monsters, L. Frank Baum and Ryan C. Thomas
That sassy wicked witch is causing all kinds of trouble in Oz, and things go from bad to worse when she casts a spell that raises the dead. Oz is the perfect fictional world for a zombie apocalypse, and the concept of rotting flesh is a creepy mesh with the shiny quirkiness of Oz.

Little Women and Werewolves, Louisa May Alcott and Porter Grand
Claiming to be the original version of this classic novel of love and loss, this mashup tosses in a healthy dose of werewolf fighting to break up all that dense stuff.

Wuthering Bites, Sarah Gray and Emily Bronte
Take Bronte’s classic tale of love and throw in a healthy dose of Twilight-esque vamp drama.

Romeo and Juliet and Vampires, William Shakespeare and Claudia Gabel
This is the perfect marriage of horror and classic literature. Romeo and Juliet was already a classic Shakespearean blood feud. Now it’s a real blood feud, vampire-style.

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (series), Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith
Arguably one of the most popular horror mashups, this tale of civility and social criticism gets a much-needed dose of awesome with some zombie battles and swashbuckling. It’s proven so popular, author Grahame-Smith has cranked out two sequels to his adaptation of Austen’s tale.

The Meowmorphosis, Frank Kafka and Cook Coleridge
One of the weirder mashups of the bunch, this one takes a tale that is originally pretty horrible and makes it... about a kitten. A man with an adorable, man-sized kitten face. If you’ve ever wondered how a man-kitten could survive, this should answer the questions.

I Am Scrooge: A Zombie Story for Christmas, Adam Roberts and Charles Dickens
A twist on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, this adaptation finds Scrooge visiting the past and future to see the results and genesis of the zombie apocalypse—as opposed to his own hard heartedness.
