I love being scared. Love it. Anything ghostly, sinister, things seen out of the corner of your eye. Any time you think you might look in the mirror and see something different - sends goosebumps down my spine and shivers.
It wasn't always like this, when i was about 14 my sister made me watch "Stephen King's IT". We were on holiday in a caravan, it was rainy and she told me it wasn't scary. It was a spoof. It is not a spoof and it is scary. It is the story of a group of children in Maine who are terrorised by an unspeakable evil (Tim Curry) in the form of a clown called Pennywise. I was scared for years afterwards, I didn't watch it again until i was 25 and I still get shivers from it. Anyone who has seen it will understand.
That said, I do still love being scared.
Very good, Stephen King (and Tim Curry), Well done.
