What are some Newbery Medal winning horror books?

The Newbery Medal is awarded annually by the American Library Association to the author of the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children. Horror books are typically not considered for the Newbery Medal, as they are often deemed too dark or disturbing for children. However, there are a few exceptions to this rule.

Here are some Newbery Medal winning books that contain elements of horror:

* The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman (2009)

* Coraline by Neil Gaiman (2003)

* The Witches by Roald Dahl (1983)

* From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E. L. Konigsburg (1968)

* Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O'Dell (1961)

* The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare (1984)
