hi there!:) my name is Kris, and I'm a psych student that's obsessed with everything horror and thriller. I love all types of scary stuff, altho gore is my least favorite - but I still enjoy it from time to time. I also read Between Two Fires a while back and I found it super fun :) let's be pals!!
@Kris: Welcome and very awesome as you definitely came to the right place! LoL I'm almost done with Between Two Fires and am loving it so far, will be finishing it today!

Hello, I'm Marceline. I've been a member/lurker for a while now and felt it was time to actually introduce myself properly.I've always been a fan of horror, and my tastes tend to lean heavily into the cosmic horror and psychological horror, though I do love me a good jumpscare and gore once in a while. This goes for both literature and movies. Jobwise, I work in the real life horror that is retail. My hobbies outside of reading (which I should set more time aside for) include gaming, fishing, watching documentaries, cooking, and the occasional game of bowling.
I'm semi-active on GoodReads (my interest in reading comes and goes so when I'm not reading something I tend to not really log into GR) and I'm always interested in adding new friends so I can see what others are reading-- I've found it a good way to go outside my preferred subgenre of horror once in a while or even into the non-horror genres.
@Marcy: Welcome and very cool, I'm also the same with horror in both novels and movies! LoL I also have worked in retail as I spent 15+ years in it until I finally found my dream job. I feel your pain!
Welcome to HA, Marceline! There are so many branches/sub-genres out there! You're sure to have a huge TBR lined up in no time. :)
Hi Marcy, lurking is fun ( I do a lot of that) but also thank you so much for saying hi, we appreciate having you here :)
Welcome Marcy!I hear you on reading spurts. I had commented on the fact that i have been dividing time between print reading and on line Comics reading. its all good though.
Hello I'm Ed and I have just started using the community part of goodreads to look for more ways to enjoy reading because this is an activity I do alone and never share.I joined this horror community for the obvious reason that I enjoy this genre. I have read mainly Stephen King's books and I'm looking for more psychological types of horror.
I hope I can participate a lot and find some really creepy books!
Hi, My name is Alessandro, I'm from London originally although I have lived all over. I'm a massive fan of horror books/films.Currently very into cosmic/Lovecraftian horror!
@Isynch: Welcome and so cool you're from London and into cosmic/Lovecraftian horror. I need to get more into Lovecraft!
Hi guys, my name is Mary and I live in Brazil. Very happy to be in the group, my favorite authors are Stephen King and Edgar Allan Poe. I love the poem The Raven! xoxo
I love cosmic horror too, Alessandro! Have you read John Langan's The Fisherman?Hello to you, Ed! Welcome to HA!

Hello everyone, y'all can just call me Bat or something like that lol. I adore all kinds of horror and gothic type books. I am especially fond of ghosts/demons and horror that takes place in forest settings.
Thank you all! I've already discovered some books here that have struck my interest. I'm going to have to see if my library has any of them!
