Horror, for me, is not defined by the thing that provokes ones fear, but the human being who has contact with it.

We need to kind of refresh our fear in order to refresh our understanding of how a safe place works.

Monsters just outside our peripheral vision are scarier to contemplate than monsters miles away or in someplace only a fool would set foot in.

Psychological horror is more interesting to me than the explicitly physical.

If the hairs on my neck stand up while Im writing, I figure the reader will get the same kind of shock.

Theres something in human nature that says we need to have at least one symbolic place where chaos and dark desires can live.

To make the reader afraid, I had to be afraid.
