    I leave the radio on softly to get to sleep with those annoying thoughts.

    This is why I hated living alone.

    Love horror and only occasionally does it bother me. Exorcist movie was one instance. Books are not the same as visuals to me, so they don’t bother me.

    I recommend reading seed catalogues at bedtime, much easier to fall asleep.

    Horror novels don’t keep me awake at night, but politics …..

    I tried telling myself something similar when I was a wee lad: “It is just the sound of the furnace kicking on; no such thing as a furnace monster …”

    Had the same reaction reading about the Nazgul the first time before trying to go to sleep. As an adult, mind you!

    I’ve honestly never read a horror story that left me in a frightened state. Seeing a horror story on the other hand…

    BTW which Lovecraft story is Monty referring to? I don’t have access to my concordance and Wikipedia was no help.

    Your problem, Monty, is that the Necronomicon is rather more real than any story concocted by Stephen King! So go to sleep, but don’t mutter any of those incantations!

    Do you have a copy of the Malleus Maleficarum?
