My own little horror story on Kindle, how cool! From a girl, I absorbed every horror I could lay my hands on. Bedtime stories were Poe, M R James and basically, anything Hammer related.


The Thing, in bunk beds with an ancient black & white portable (it was the olden days) Waiting, terrified all night for the entrails of my sister to wriggle down from above and envelope me in carnivorous agony.


Halloween: a daring trip into the night with Mum (Dad always worked abroad) Nightmares with a hair prickling score ( and ringtone) etched into my brain for decades yet to come. Damaged for life – I loved every minute.


Weekend sleepovers at my cousins – a mass of sleeping bags and chair beds. Nightmare on Elm Street, Hellraiser, Terrorvision,  The Blob. The Stuff, Return Of The Living Dead...send more paramedics...LiKE THIS JOB!?!! Lying awake, thinking of all the surrounding cemeteries, brains...planning my escape, ahem, our  escape…. We wouldn’t stand a chance!


The grabbing hand at the end of Carrie.(Spoiler alert!) The ventriloquist's dummy Hugo in Dead of Night. The screaming Woman in Black over your bed, the watching shadowy ghosts in The Turn of the Screw. Alien, Demons, Evil Dead, The Fog, sequel after sequel, little pockets of horror genius.


Argento, Carpenter, Craven, Fulci, Raimi, Scott, Herbert, King. Loving nods to all my faves, they are my greatest inspirations.

Running out of room, gonna need a bigger boat – please treasure my little contribution to an amazing genre. X A
