The Bram Stoker Awards are presented each year by the Horror Writers Association, voted on by its members, and are the leading honours in horror fiction; Superior Achievement in a Novel is their flagship category. Awarded since 1988, the prize has gone to Stephen King more often than to anyone else, and its winners run from The Silence of the Lambs and Peter Straub to Paul Tremblay and Stephen Graham Jones. Two years ended in a tie. This list collects the winning novels by the year the award was presented.
