Which novels in the Forgotten Realms campaign will you classify as Horror novels and Mystery novels??? |

There are parts of the Pool of Radiance novel that incorporate some of the classic elements of horror-storytelling.

I thought Depths of Madness had some horror elements in it.
I'm surprised no one mentioned Realms of Mystery (although, that's not a novel, but an anthology). |

the haunted lands trilogy seems to have an edge of horror/ mystery feel to me. Though, I have only read Unclean so far. |

Some of the tales contained with the "Realms of Mystery" anthology would certainly rank as "mystery" stories.

Though it is actually a RAVENLOFT novel, I'd consider the first few chapters of Vampire of the Mists [which take place in Waterdeep], to be a "Realms horror novel" of sorts.

The Night Parade stands out to me as pretty close to a horror novel. |

Murder in Cormyr and Murder in Halruaa, for mystery (I assume; I've never read either book).
I can't think of any real horror novels in the Realms, though some novels have had horror elements.
It's a fantasy setting. Though genre mixing can work, it can also flop. And quite honestly, I'm happy that we've not had too much genre mixing with the Realms. |
