Welcome to Gaia! ::

I don't read a lot of horror novels, but I have read a good deal of horror short fiction.

Lovecraft is by far my favorite; it takes quite a bit to actually unsetlle me, and even after having reading all of his works, re-reading a story can give me that uncomfortable disquiet. No author has ever made me feel so alone and tiny amidst a sea of horrors that I'm not even aware of.

I also enjoy a lot of Poe's short stories - the man had a mastery of the english language that few can duplicate.

I don't generally read horror/thrillers. The only one I've read are some of Dean Koontz books and not the ones that are too scary sounding, because I don't want to scary myself before I go to sleep.
