  1. The little girl...

    Well, I'm not quite sure this thread goes in here, but the story is actually kinda scary abd I can't think in anywhere else to place this. I was wondering if you've ever heard about this book called "The little girl who was forgotten by absolutely everyone (even the postman)" by Katy Towell. I...

I thought the small town life was...

  3. Vampires & werewolfes

  8. Does anyone know the title of this novel?

    In the late 70's or early 80's I read this horror novel and I cannot recall the title or author. I do remember that it's set out west somewhere and that the lead female character is a small town veterinarian. Anyway, a teenage girl has the ability to transform into a giant bird/monster and she goes...

  9. Question I can't remember the title of this horror novel...by Straub?

    Hi Years ago, I picked up a novel that I think was by Peter Straub but I may be mistaken. On the first page - a man, I think he's Native American, is watching a boy walk on the grass in front of a house that's fenced off. The boy disappears in front of him... That's all I can remember, it...

  12. Summer of Night by Dan Simmons

    I'm not much into horror books or movies. I find it ridiculous and it almost never gives me a good scare. This books is the one that did. It's nothing spectacular, but it's chilling to me. It's about a group of children who are on their summer holiday. They live in a small American town with a...

  13. Question The lovecraftian creatures

    To all lovecraftian fans: I think of writing imaginative detailed descriptions of the lovecraftian creatures (the Cthulhu mythos. All of them are here.) The website gives the name of the creature, its nickname and its summarized description. The question is: Did Lovecraft write a detailed...

  14. Anyone know the name of this book?

    It's been driving me crazy that I cannot remember it. I read it in the late 1980's. I believe the book was fiction but contained a decent amount of research and read as a true story, thus making an impression on the reader. A gentleman was in Haiti and was researching voodoo practices and...

  15. Advent

    I don't know if any of you are familiar with a stellar author called Don Gowan. I always thought he was British because of his breathtaking new book written with a new and deeper slant from the Vulgate about the life of Lancelot du Lac. It is called Knight of the heart and I never wanted to come...

  16. Question Can anyone help me remember the title of a book?

    I read a book years ago. It was a ghost story, about two sisters. Their names were Alarice and Consuelo. There was a parallel story about two younger sisters, one recuperating from a car crash that killed her family. She was becoming possessed by the spirit of Alarice. The ending was...
