I don't know if I belong here. I'm not a writer, just a fan of well-written horror literature. Have been a fan of anything dark or evil or scary since I was a kid. I started with POE'S short stories, plus all of the E.A. POE movies with Vincent Price in the 60's. In high school, I found my first collection of H.P. LOVECRAFT stories. The first one I read was "the outsider", It's still one of my favorites. In the 80's I started reading CHARLES L. GRANT'S stuff. I still have every one of the oxrun station books, greystone bay, all of them. Then I found BRIAN LUMLEY'S necroscope series, I've read the majority of those , along with his titus crow stories. I've also read the usual authors, MACHEN, DERLETH, CAMPBELL, BARKER, AND ETCHISON. I'm probably in the minority here, but I'm not a fan of stephen king. I find his stuff too long winded and with cliche' endings, I know what's going to happen before it happens. Just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. Any way, that's why I'm here, to interact with like-minded people that read and write about my favorite subject, the unknown.
