O’Neill, Patrick “The Westhoff Version,” Darkness Ad Infinitum. The pacing has been a little, what’s a nice way to put this …uneven; some episodes nothing really happened except maybe Elsa being bitchier than usual and others went zipping around all over the place. But they’re aided by Quentin Blake’s lively illustrations, and also by minimizing the violence against the kid protagonists, and embellishing the violence done to (and by) the antagonists.

One young woman named Esther discovers the truth about who she is and what really happens when the �special� orphans leave the only home they�ve known for most of their lives. The sequel, Creepshow 2 (1987), doesn't quite match it, but it's worth checking out. Humorous attempts at horror are acceptable, but be warned that your editor’s sense of humour like her taste in martinis is most peculiar and exacting. I wrote a review on this book that you can read here: (HAUNTED LEGENDS).

The movie comprises five vignettes set on a derelict highway, connected by the voice of one radio DJ. Simple scenario, yes, but punctuated with solid acting, direction and genuinely creepy climax. An absolute masterpiece that, if anything, needed to be longer! I must first mention a story called �Splash�, a round-robin effort with each writer keeping to a thousand words and the ability to rewrite two sentences from the previous part. The most pleasant surprise is Becky Hawkins, whose story of crashing a quad-bike into a tree-cactus hilariously focuses on the spectacle of both the event and the cosmetic damage that she took.

Please keep this in mind as we could be asking for reprint rights in the future. But those 50-ish minutes were jam packed full of terror and suspense. Eerie, Creepy, and Vampirella as well as Marvel’s 1970s flirtation with monsters and the supernatural that resulted in titles like Ghost Rider are amongst the most memorable of these. The word 'horror' itself, when used in a literary context, evokes varied responses. The story in this collection that most unnerved me was the novella "Strike."

Samuels, Mark “Outside Interference,” Written in Darkness. I sometimes get stuck thinking up an idea for another anthology to pitch to my various publishers. Based at Hawaii Pacific University, HPR often features work from Hawaii and the Pacific region, but is interested in great writing from any place and on any subject. It is known for its trademark portmanteau or anthology horror films. Not limited by sci-fi genre constraints that similar series such as The Outer Limits had, Alfred Hitchcock Presents solidified the anthology as something unpredictable, with classic episodes adapted from various Roald Dahl stories, such as the Emmy-winning “Lamb to the Slaughter” and “Man from the South.” With each episode featuring Hitchcock himself walking out of his iconic silhouette title sequence, wishing the audience a “good evening,” and introducing the story we are about to see, Alfred Hitchcock Presents was event television from a time when watching television was an event.
