Jarrett Rice | 18 comments Hello all. I'm Jarrett. I'm brand new to this site and brand new to this group. I love reading horror books, and love horror movies, anything scary really. Recently I've started looking to broaden my horror book reading, I'm really only familiar with the most known authors (your Stephen Kings and Dean Koontz etc.), so finding some new authors and new books would be awesome. But with all that being said, Hello :)

Angelica (angelica221) Hello, I really have just started reading and appreciating the horror genre. Some of my favorite movies include, The Haunting (the 60s version BW), Yellow Brick Road and Crimson Peak. I've noticed that I lean more towards supernatural horror. Some of my favorite books include Winter People, Vampires and the Haunting of Maddy Clare.

Karth Hello, I'm Karth. I absolutely love the horror genre in general, both movies and books. I particularly like horror books with some meaning and that will have an impression on me. My favorite horror author is Stephen King. If anyone has any recommendations, let me know!

Hi, Sinister (Karth)! I suggest you hit up the What Are You Reading and What Have You Just Read threads. There's always books being discussed there.

message 1028: by B.C. (new)

B.C. Jackson Hello! I am BC Jackson. I am a big fan of horror (of course, that's why I'm here) and I am always looking for new things to read and watch. I am a Stephen King fanboy, for sure, and I also love scary movies- mainly those that walk the tightrope between horror/supernatural thriller. My favorite King book: Salem's Lot. My favorite scary movie: if I have to pick, and this is based almost purely on nostalgia, it would be Silver Bullet.

Char | 17501 comments Hello and welcome, B.C.! You're in the right place. :)

Supratim Hi all,

I am Supratim and I am from India.

I love horror novels - both atmospheric and gore & physical horror. I love it if the horror novel has elements of a mystery and twists.

Thanks,
Supratim

ColinJ Hey, folks. I'm an Aussie horror nut looking for some good recommendations.


message 1040: by Graeme (new)

Graeme Rodaughan Hi All,

Awesome group - i'm curious about the horror genre as I am a big believer in the use of "Terror - as the anticipation of Horror" being the more critical experience than the actual Horror.

I also think that gratuitous use of gore is distasteful and a sign of bad writing unless the writing is aiming for gore.

Is there are thread where those who write horror hang out?

Thanks

Cheers Graeme

message 1042: by Char (new)

Char | 17501 comments Hello and welcome to HA! There is an entire area for authors, but most of them seem to use it for promotion rather than for discussion with others. There are a bunch of authors that are members here though, so if you participate in any of the threads, you are bound to meet some. :)
