Introductions
Hi Kim,Welcome! This is a great group of people who like books very similar to your own like list (Stephen King is my favorite too!). There are tons of interesting discussions, from what some Indie authors are writing, to games and trivia and some great conversations on specific books too! It's helped me to find so many wonderful reads - and quite a few wonderful readers!

A hiss hello to everyone. I have been lurking about, and its past time to come out and say hello. My name is Tara Fox Hall, and I write multiple genres, but always with paranormal elements. My first full length paranormal action adventure book Lash published in April, and my vampire series began in June with the novel Promise Me. Sequels to both are planned for the fall (I am working with two indie presses). Tara Fox Hall
I like to read most anything, except for self-help books. :) Thanks for letting me join!
Hi Tara,Welcome - from a fellow reader and author. And no worries about the self-help books. I have yet to see one discussed in this group! :-)

Welcome Hannah. I'm so glad you found our group. My talented co-moderator, Muse, made the banner.

Hi, I'm Chris Lange and my love of paranormal led me to write my vampire story GABRIEL. 
As a reader I'm all for horror and fantasy. My fav authors are Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Terry Brooks, and Terry Goodkind, but I have discovered so many more here on Goodreads.

Hi Everyone,I just joined this group today but I've been a writer for nearly 40 years and have had 14 novels, 1 novella and 7 short stories published since 1984...I'm an old timer, you might say. I publish horror, romantic horror, paranormal, suspense, romantic time travel and murder mysteries. You can see all my novels here on Goodreads under my name Kathryn Meyer Griffith. My 14th revised novel (originally my first ever published novel from Leisure paperbacks 1984)is EVIL STALKS THE NIGHT-Revised Author's Edition and it was just rereleased on June 1, 2012. My THE LAST VAMPIRE-Revised Author's Edition was a 2012 EPIC EBOOKS AWARDS FINALIST in the horror category. Nice to be here! Warmly, author Kathryn Meyer Griffith rdgriff@htc.net www.myspace.com/kathrynmeyergriffith
Hi Kathryn,Welcome to our group! I'll send you a friend notice, if that's ok. I would love to follow your reviews and what you are up to.
A new novelist,

Sorry... I've been slacking in my 'Welcoming' duties lately! :-) So... first off, WELCOME TO THE GROUP!
Secondly, I made the banner. I was thinking the group looked a little plain and we couldn't access the other banner that was submitted since she accidentally locked it. I went through, grabbed some 'horror' and 'paranormal' stocks/stills/pics and threw it together. Nothing fancy. :-) It works! LOL
Hi everyone...I'm a new author, and my novel "The Clearing" is coming out...well...not long after I'm done completing the edits I've just been sent. I'm writing in the paranormal and supernatural genre, at the moment. Come by and say hi...I'd love to chat with anyone interested in doing so :)
Warm Regards,
Thomas

Hello everyone. I've always been an avid reader and have always loved vampires and werewolves and other paranormal tales but didn't really discover paranormal romance as a genre till I read Darkest Night by Gena Showalter the year before last. Since then I've read all the LOTU, IAD and BDB. I've also started writing my own paranormal romance/erotica and paranormal horror and have had a few things published. Looking forward to chatting SJ

Hi everyone. Just joined. I'm a Toronto-based writer, and I've just put out my first book. 
Gathering Darkness is a collection of 27 of my short horror stories, some published previously online, some new, but all scary!
I've also edited two short anthologies of psychological horror, called the "Days of Madness" Series.
.I'm looking forward to some great discussions here - as horror is a particular love of mine.
Thanks for having me!
Hello. My name is Cypher Lx. I'm an indie author and have been on GR for a little over a year, but I just found this group. Currently, I have three books in publications with a fourth on the way. All are in the horror or paranormal genre. My hope is to make some wonderful connections here with other authors as well as readers.
Hello Everyone,I am so happy to be a part of such an active community of book lovers, especially those with liking of the Paranormal/ Horror! Thanks Iris for pointing me this way! The most recent series of books I finished was "The Strain" series by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan. It is a great series of vampire fiction, not the sparkly kind but truly terrifying creatures. I love paranormal/ horror/ mystery/ thrillers of all kinds, including those with romantic themes. While I enjoy reading new titles, I also enjoy revisiting classic authors and titles. Currently I am reading a collection of Edgar Allan Poe and “The Resturant at the end of the Universe” by Douglas Adams. I welcome any recommendations you think I might enjoy.
I recently published my first book, “Being Mrs. Dracula”. It is the story of Dracula’s three brides, (Valeria, Ilona, and Fleur) before, during, and after the events of the Stoker classic. It is available through almost every Ebook retailer, many of which offer free sample chapters. I hope you might have time to squeeze it onto your shelf.
Between reading and writing and work, I do not have a lot of time for anything else but I do enjoy camping and hiking as much as I can. Any recommendations on books with natural, outdoor themes and/ or adventure settings are also welcomed.
Thanks for the invite,
Faith
Just wanted to pop in and welcome all the new members!! :D *passes out cookies to all*

Hi Faith - welcome! I really love The Strain series too! I've only read books 1 and 2 - still need to get to #3.

Hello Everyone! I am extremely happy to be a part of this group, and to see so many people that also love horror/paranormal. :) Very comforting. I just recently self-published my first YA book, which is called Who is Audrey Wickersham?, and it is classified as horror.
I also just recently changed my page to an author page! I am terrified by all of this (self-publishing) but really excited as well. I have been adding so many books to my "to-read" list that I never would have known about had I not joined this site. It's amazing.
Again thank you for inviting me and I can't wait to read many of your books!

I agree, Sara. Self- publishing is more terrifying than any book I have read or horror movie I have watched! But the good thing is you know you are not alone! Goodreads is an amazing resource for indie authors. My to- read list is expanding too!
Your cover looks great, by the way. I am going to have to check it out!
Thank you Faith! I just added your book to my "to-read" list. :) Anything to do with vampires or Dracula no less always catches my attention, ha ha. Thank you so much for your comment on my cover! And if you do get the chance to read it, let me know what you think!

My name is Kerrin from Melbourne, Aus.As far as I'm concerned, you can never have too many books on your 'to read' list lol I tend to stick to mostly paranormal/para romance & horror stuff.
I'm a a writer, mainly poetry & had a few things published. Most of it is fantasy/dark themed but then there's times I'll turn around & come up with something completely opposite (I went through a phase & was writing little poems for children).
I've spent the last few years quite sick off & on so when I'm home alone, I love nothing better than cuddling up with a good book & my cat, Malcolm.

Hi! I'm new to the book blogging world and so far it has been a whirl wind of fun!! I love Paranormal fiction the most, adult or YA. My fav authors are Ilona Andrews, Richelle Mead, Rachel Vincent and JR Ward, to name a few.
Welcome to all the new faces! I'm happy to see all these self-pubbed authors here. I'm releasing my third book in September; you're definitely not alone! :)
Hi everyone I'm Michaela (Mickey) from Australia. Love paranormal and horror. Especially horror. New release or old classic I don't mind, I'll read it.

Thank goodness Philly isn't coal region. I couldn't bear the thought of Chinatown becoming the next Centralia (town of mine fires and quite possibly the portal to Hell. :) )

Great to meet you, K.! :) I see you dabble in a few different genres/sub genres. Very cool! Do you have a favorite?
I do like to wander on the dark side. Strong characters and great settings are always key. Although it's nice to take a break from the darkness once in awhile so that's probably why I mix it up. Vampires, and werewolves are probably my favorite creatures. That's what fills most of my personal library.

I think they're incredibly versatile!

My name is Kim and I haven't been in the group long. My favorite type of book is horror. I read them when I need entertained, comforted, and to wile away my spare time. I, of course, have my favorite authors, Stephen King, Peter Straub, Brian Lumley, Dan Simmons, and the list goes on.
In general I will pick a horror book before I will pick anything else. I have to be in the mood for other genres, but not this one.
