House of Leaves has me sleeping with my lights on.

Fuck you, book.

It's bad, then? I heard Dionaia House was based on it.

Well... It depends. It's not really out-and-out horror like stuff by Stephen King. It's more "It feels like there's someone standing behind me oh no i think there's someone standing behind me if I turn around they'll kill me but maybe if I just ignore them they won't turn out to be a giant fanged clawed beast hungering for manflesh".

And, if the latter scares the pants off of you like it does me? You will be in for a very very scary ride.

With lots of lights on.

Oh, yeah. That's the type of thing that'll really get me. Like the Ring, & the Others.

I'm reading John Dies At The End right now. It's good, but not so scary ):

Oh man. The Ring was the first horror movie to actually scare me in ages. I love it for that!

All I remember about John Dies At The End is that the thing online had a bagerconda and the really rather freaky "haunted" picture that was on Ebay.
