OUR FAVORITE HORROR SITES
The Horror Drive-In – One of the coolest sites on the net run by Mark Sieber, a great guy and friend of the horror genre.
I have been reading books for a long time, most of my life actually (but I won’t divulge how long that is). I can count on one hand the books that have scared the daylights out of me. The first being “The Exorcist by William Peter Blatty”, followed by “The Shining by Stephen King”, “Ghost Story by Peter Straub” and “Black Cathedral by Maynard & Sims”. These tales stick with me most because of the unrelenting terror and fear they caused; nightmares, jumping at sounds, sleepless nights, everything a good scary story should do.
Thanks, Peter for the mention and in such great company.
I hope you get the chance to read the second Department 18 book – NIGHT SOULS, just out from Leisure.
