My hotmail alert ended with ‘…what are your favourite…’. I thought the next two words were going to be ‘scary movies’. Had to resist the temptation to look out the window for a psycho in a Scream mask. Now I’ve seen the actual question (!), John Connolly’s Every Dead Thing is well up on my list.

The Hound of the Baskervilles still does it, too.

Keep meaning to read John Connolly but never seem to get round to it and you can’t beat a bit of Sherlock!

The beginning of Mark Edwards’ Follow You Home freaked me out. Probably shouldn’t have started reading it last thing at night… ?
