And saw the movie. Love horror. And love Australian horror. Have found some out there.
Hello, I am Andrew. I love many genres of literature but horror, and it’s sub-genre’s are where my heart is. I love hardcore splatterpunk, indie, and classics. I love films and music as well of all sorts. I also write my own music, play guitar, and sing. However, I love all things horror related! Also, one might say I am a obsessive collector. Once a series, or author, or band sucks me in I HAVE TO HAVE THE WHOLE CATALOGUE!!! Lol!
That’s about it. Joined this group to get insight into more horror I was unaware of, and have discussions with like minded horror aficionados. 🤘
I'm David, a retired public school teacher who has always loved (and taught) horror, an ex-owner of a ghost tour business that featured a 1972 Cadillac hearse in which we transported our guests to spooky haunted sites, and a newly published author of my first horror book, a collection of Christmas-themed horror stories, called The Thirteenth Day of Christmas and Other Tales of Yuletide Horror. Looking forward to the group's recommendations for great horror reading and discussions about those books!

Welcome David! That sounds awesome-all of that!

Hi, my name is Matthew Reel. I started out as a filmmaker but I have finished my first novel, BAD THINGS. I don't like being tied down to a specific genre. I love everything from weird fiction to comic books, I see everything as fair game. Glad to be here!
Welcome to HA, David & Matthew!
Hi Matthew! Welcome to HA and good luck with your latest endeavor!
Hello fellow ghouls, I love all things horror (movies, books, music, fashion, decor). Just here to meet like minded people and get back into reading more horror. I'm a librarian but I don't make enough time to read - I blame movies and Instagram :)
Welcome to HA, Mel! We're glad to have you here!

Hi, guys! I've been away for quite a while and I'm dipping my toes back in to see how the water is after my hiatus (getting my books going, a long run as an editor at a small press, and life, in general, got to be pretty hectic). My name is Amanda and I was more present around 2010-2012 before my youngest was born. I'm not sure how many of the original crew is still here that would remember me, but hello again to any of you that are still here!
