People are strange, aren't they? On the one hand, they do not like to feel afraid and yet they will pay good money for the fear generated by a horror movie, scary novel or rollercoaster ride. I know that I love to watch a well-made horror movie and I am sure there are many more like me out there. I am also fascinated by tales of the paranormal. I try my best to explain them away and quickly forget about the bulk of them that I can. But those few that I cannot...they remain with me and, if you'll pardon the expression, haunt me. Then there are objects, building, people and places. Why is it that some give us 'the creeps' and yet others do not. What triggers that all-too-well-known sensation within us?
To find answers might prove dissapointing. It is the mystery surrounding these issues which fuels those sensations. But I would like to explore them more carefully, hopefully with your help, in the course of this blog.
So please join me as I both cellebrate and investigate this fascinating and compelling theme.
