Did 'Ghost Face' on the cover make you want to read the book more or less?

I did not like the cover. People who are fans of horror would be drawn to this type of image. I think the author would attract more people to the book by changing the cover. Readers who might enjoy the mystery/romance of the story will simply pass by this book when they experience the fear the cover image conveys.

The 'Ghost Face' on the cover definitely made me want to read the book. I'm a huge fan of horror and gory books, so this, combined with 'Fear' in blood-dripping red made it an instant 'want to read' for me.

Even though I'm not a fan of scary movies, I like reading horror themed books. I haven't read this book yet, but I would definitely read it if I had a chance.

I was always scared of ghost movies when I was a kid,but it was fun to me when I read ghost stories in books. So the ghost face on the cover made me more interested in the book

I am honestly not a fan of horror books. The cover puts me off and based on it, I would not have touched the book.

Yes, the ghost face on the cover page actually captured my attention. It increased my desire to read the book.

The cover actually made me not want to read the book. It came across as cheesy to me. But, I could see how the cover might make horror fans want to read the book. I am personally not a fan of the genre, so my opinion of the cover could be biased in that way.

As uninteresting as that cover is, for a book of that nature, I would still choose it for the book.
I just feel it should sell the book better.

More, the cover was what made me pick up the book at first because I love Scream.

For me, the cover intrigued me. I am a fan of horror movies but have never really read any books in the genre. Seeing the ‘Ghost Face’ cover might have prompted me to pick up the book and read the first few chapters to see what it is like.

The cover did remind me of the Scream franchise, so I wanted to see if it was related in any way. I'm glad that it wasn't.

The cover turned me off. It looked unprofessional to be ripping it off the Scream franchise and to be riding on a cliched, exhaustively-established motif of horror.

I am a huge fan of horror movies, and sometimes literature (Anne Rice fanatic), however the cover looked sloppy in my opinion. The text across the face wasn't very appealing to me.
