Hi Friends! My name is Melissa, and I grew up on 80's slasher films and Stephen King, I've really gotten back into reading the past couple of years, and I'm finding that I'm still in love with the genre! I'm here for recommendations of new to me books and authors, and to make some like-minded friends!

Hi Melissa, those were some great slasher films during that time! Welcome to the group. It is a great bunch of people and they are awesome with helping to add to our never ending TBR lists :)

Welcome : D
I have some recommendations if you'd like, I always like to share the results of my ponderous semi scholarly digging through the nooks and crannies of the genre : D
Hello! I'm new here, my name's Christopher I recently published my first book called "Condition" it's a zombie apocalypse novel about a man who finds an 11 year old boy and they team up surviving one day at a time. It's simple, creative and gorey. I hope whoever reads it enjoys!

Hello Christopher. Well done on the first book!
Hello hello!My name's Jeff but you can call me Jeff. I am a writer / indie comic illustrator and love the horror genre. Ghost stories are my favorite but mainly the older ghost stories. I'm not a big fan of the grudge or movies like that.
A movie that stands out is call The Changling with George C. Scott. A favorite book of mine is called the Lovely Bones.
Have a great one and look forward to interacting with you guys.
Here is the Lovely Bones. This was a different style of ghost story but very good. I watched the movie after reading the book. It was very well renditioned.The Lovely Bones
Welcome Jeffery. Both of those are good movies. I didn’t read The Lovely Bones, just watched the movie.
Mod
it was one of the first movies that scared me.
Hello and welcome to HA, everyone! We're glad you're here!

Hell, my name is Brian. Lover of horror and all things macabre. My biggest interests in the horror world are novels and movies full of lumbering impossibilities with rows of teeth, slashers with the silent killer, sci-fi horror, and most things 80s- the greatest era of horror (IMO). My favorite authors consist of Lovecraft, Robert Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, Curran, Ronald Kelly, and most recently Guy N. Smith. I recently started writing/authoring in October 2020 with my first release 'The Pail' and I'm trying to improve with each book. I have several out now in my Splatter Fiend series and hope to meet some good people here!
(Also pretty new to Goodreads)
Hi Brian, welcome to the group :)

Hi everyone, I’m Natalie! I’m a huge fan of horror stories and movies, and have been since I was a kid (I used to devour goosebumps books when I was younger). I’m a huge fan of any sort of supernatural/paranormal horror, and will read about basically anything haunted. I’m trying to up my reading game this year, so I’d love the chance to get some book/author recommendations on here, and have the chance to discuss the different types of books that I am reading :)
Mod
Thank you, Kimberly, Alan, Michelle! Welcome Natalie! I'm a huge fan of RL Stine- still read goosebumps to this day. Great, fun series.
