Quotent Quotables: October 20, 2026

I think some horror authors are trying to scare you, but with me, I'm as scared as the reader is of the story. I've always been that way, since watching THE TWILIGHT ZONE MOVIE - watching FIRESTARTER when my parents were out, or sneaking out to watch A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET at a friend's house because I couldn't watch it at my house.
