My interest was further piqued by the music of Black Sabbath, a band who, by their own admission set out to create scary music. They realised that some people liked to be frightened, that they actually enjoyed the fear. I was one. I lied about my age to see films such as The Omen, Friday the Thirteenth, Alien. I bit off more than I could chew when I saw The Exorcist aged 15. I sat transfixed three rows back from the screen. This benchmark for all horror films had a profound effect on me. It certainly played a part in my choice of literature, film and storytelling. A writing course lead by the wonderful and inspirational Barbara Large M.B.E. FRSA HFUW began my journey into short horror/thriller stories. (Dear Barbara sadly passed away on 4th March 2019). This book has spent a long time coming to fruition. I have had battles with chronic depression over the last 21 years which have caused me to shelf this project for prolonged periods of time. It's here now. I hope at least a few people like it.ver menos
