Re: World Horror Convention 2012 - Salt Lake City, UT, USA

Yes, would have loved to have attended this as I made it through the slushpile into the Horror for Good anthology, so I've now been published alongside a number of luminaries in the genre. It was...

Re: Sex and Death in Horror Fiction

Edward Lee wrote an excellent Lovecraftian novella 'Trolley No.1852' that features warped sexuality alongside cosmic horror. Also, I'd recommend Wrath James White's work - Succulent Prey, The...

Re: "A Season In Carcosa" and "The Grimscribe's Puppets" are coming!

Just come across this thread whilst browsing and I have to say, wonderful stuff. Both collections sound awesome and those covers, if you'll forgive the expletive, holy ####, I'm in love. Those are...

Re: A New Ligotti Interview, Conducted by... me!?

Great interview. Fascinating to get insight into the revisions made to the re-issued collections and some superb in-depth discussion on the thoughts behind TCATHR. :)

Re: Chinese city stands nearly-vacant

I saw such things when I lived in China back in 2002. There were many building projects going on as part of the country's drive to attract foreign business enterprises and sponsorship. For a country...

Re: The Suicide of a Human Puppet

I think that would really depend upon an individual's set of beliefs as to whether it was a pre-determined act or not.

There’s a place called The Shop. You can get everything there. That is, everything you don’t want. Why would you want something you don’t want? That’s what you’re thinking, but is that not what we...

Re: The root of all evil?

I'll skip the above choices myself and go with my own definition which I've been mulling on for a while; the more humourless the man, the more evil he will be.

Splatterhouse 2010

Not so much a Ligottian game this but it's the first decent horror-themed video game I recall from way back in the dark days of the 1980s redone for a new generation. I think I know how I'm spending...

Re: Favorite Ligotti Story

After some consideration, mine is a slightly unusual choice, I think. I was tempted to select The Bungalow House but, in fact, I think the vignette The Malignant Matrix is my favourite piece. There...
