"One fell off the shelf before with no warning. Scared the hell out of me 'kin hell. My horrors are in an enclosed bookcase, so if they fell out of my bookcase I'd be ringing the bloody Ghostbusters " That would be funny though! I'd freak right out, but probably have a good chuckle too | |||

"My first was Roald Dahl - The Witches. I was convinced that the mice in the local pet shop were boys and actually smuggled two in my coat pockets out the shop. The Collector - not a traditional horror but it really got to me. I was fourteen at the time and became very suspicious of certain types of men. Oh and Dracula when I first read it. Started a slightly weird obsession but still terrified me." Oh, The Witches is still my favourite Roald Dahl novel, I blame him for my appetite for horror. Talking of Dracula, have you read The Historian? | |||

It made me regret not going to a college where I could hide in the library and stumble across archaic texts. | |||

I did really enjoy The Historian and how, although it was about vampires it wasn't straight up horror which was refreshing. I did feel that as it's so long it did drag on sometimes | |||

"I'm rummaging through my Stephen King collection (to my shame, I haven't spent much time with my babies for five or six months) and the books which have truly haunted me since I was a teenager are Pet Sematary & Salem's Lot - the latter, even though I've read it at least a dozen times still creeps me out, and my first floor flat curtains are always firmly shut before nightfall. Which novels creep you out?" I adore Stephen King! No book has ever really creepedo me out to be fair. I think I find too much peace in reading. Eve. X | |||

I Scare more easily with Tv stuff when I am alone, I am a woose about being alone in house and lock all my interior doors and close curtains before watching anything scary. | |||

"The one where the couple went on a romantic weekend in the middle of nowhere and he died before undoing her handcuffs that shackled her to the bed. It describes how the bloke was slowly eaten by wild animals and how she degloved her hands to get out of the cuffs. " Gerards game? Love James Herbert, Stephen king, Dean koontz. The first book ever to give me nightmares was the shining. Topiary animals still give me the creeps! | |||

The first book ever to give me nightmares was the shining. Topiary animals still give me the creeps!" I enjoyed Gerald's Game, the female lead in that is the only other female lead of King's who I don't actively dislike, the other female character being Beverly Marsh in It. Though G'sG put me off handcuffs for life! I love James Herbert but I prefer his more fantasy ghost stories to his gore, but I prefer Koontz's early gore stuff to his thrillers | |||

"One fell off the shelf before with no warning. Scared the hell out of me " Was at a mate's house, sat in the lounge waiting for him to finish getting ready for a night out. Nobody else in the lounge except me, and Stephen King's book Christine just falls off his bookshelf...slightly eerie, as I'd just finished reading my own copy of the book. Life is sometimes stranger than fiction. | |||

"I read american psycho a couple of years ago and it didnt really scare me just made me think what the hell is going on in the authors mind, like have they checked his basement for corpses lol I agree, it didn't scare me but it did disturb the heck out of me " Have you read Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House? It's very good. And if we're talking disturbing, try her short story "The Lottery" - it is unforgettable. It really is. That's all I'll say. Only one mention of Ramsey Campbell so far? He's brilliant - more short stories than novels, but many are creepy as hell. Try "Again", one of my faves and really disturbing - just thinking about it makes me shudder. | |||

Which novels creep you out?" James Herbert's The Rats scared me, but I was 13.. And a book for adults. That lead me onto Stephen King.. Who I've not found that scary, as I prefer his Sci fi to his horror. But The Dome and The Stand both scare me a little. I'm reading The Stand now.. I think I find what people can do to each other more scary than traditional horrors. The Descent scared me, or had my hackles up for sure. I'd like to think Jaws scares me when I read it, but doubt it will. | |||

"The Bible. All that stuff about voices from God telling a father to kill his son. " Yeah, the bible scared me as a child, too. My really religious aunt would read us bits from Revelation around the campfire in the dark The Gulag Archipelago was also quite frightening and sad. | |||

"Richard Laymon's Endless Night, it didn't scare me exactly, but it did make me a bit jumpy! Laymon wrote some fucked up shit. I loved his books when I was a teen and it's all sex, blood, violence and graphic gore. " A friend passed it on and I have to say I was gripped. Oddly on another thread I was saying how I'm totally unable to watch anything violent at all, but to read it is fine. It's like my brain presents it to me in a way I can handle, whereas watching somone else's interpretation of a scene, I find it almost impossible. | |||
