Allo! I'm 33, from the South East of England, and my taste in literature is relatively varied, although my passion tends to be towards older horror fiction - H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, M.R. James, Bram Stoker, Dennis Wheatley's black magic novels, Arthur Machen and the like.

 

I also read some non-fiction, including biographies and autobiographies of people who interest me on some level - ranging from Grigori Rasputin to Vic Reeves!

Welcome to the forum Morbid Hermit!:D

 

Although I've never read him, I do have two whole shelves of Wheatleys screaming for my attention!

Hello and welcome! :) I love your username. I used to be a morbid hermit myself, but these days I try to be... perky... *shrugs* Others find it entertaining, I think.. :)

Hello!

 

Have you read "Tales of Terror and Mystery" by Authur Conan Doyle? Much more on the 'horror' side than his S. Holmes books. I can also recommend Sheridan Le Fanu (esp. vampire story Carmilla). Just finished a book of his short stories which includes the latter, and I highly recommend him.

Hiya! Thanks for the recommendations, I am unfamiliar with them and will bear them in mind. Seems like they would be my cup of tea.
