Arik Roper
-
My dream, even now, is to walk for weeks with some friend that I love, leisurely wandering from place to place, with no route arranged and no object in view, with liberty to go on all day or to linger all day, as we choose; but the question of luggage, unknown to the simple pilgrim, is one of the rocks on which my plans have been shipwrecked, and the other is the certain censure of relatives, who, not fond of walking themselves, and having no taste for noonday naps under hedges, would be sure to paralyse my plans before they had grown to maturity by the honest horror of their cry, "How very unpleasant if you were to meet any one you know!" The relative of five hundred years back would have said "How Holy!”
Elizabeth von Arnim
-
I write horror because I enjoy it. I'm endlessly fascinated by the supernatural, by death, by darkness. And, to be honest, I don't have much choice. This is the way my mind works.
Bentley Little
-
Fear of death is form of stasis horrors. The dead weight of time.
William S. Burroughs
-
I love horror movies, and the kid is always such a big part. Kids are usually seen as so innocent, like, 'Oh, they can't do anything that creepy - they're kids!' That's what a lot of horror movies draw on, so getting to join that 'club' is really cool.
Milly Shapiro
-
When people make a horror movie, it's a few months. This is years of horror, that these guys have to play out. It just hit me and I was like, "Wow, that's heavy."
Scott M. Gimple

I have a horror of sunsets; they're so romantic, so operatic.
Marcel Proust
-
Terror is the instinct that tells you to run, dear God, run, she murmured. Run for your life. But it just makes you into meat. Predators take the ones who run. Horror is the mind-thing, the worm of knowledge you can't stop turning over no matter how awful it is. It grows in your mind and destroys you by your own intelligence.
Kat Richardson
-
I don't watch horror movies because they scare me!
Sarah Wayne Callies
-
And another thing about German symphonic development. I tell you, our cold kvass soup is a horror to the Germans, and yet we eat it with pleasure. And their cold cherry soup is a horror to us, and yet it sends a German into ecstacy. In short, symphonic development is just like German philosophy and soup-all worked out and systematized. When a German thinks, he reasons his way to a conclusion. Our Russian brother, on the other hand, starts with a conclusion and then might amuse himself with some reasoning.
Modest Mussorgsky
-
To explore the unknown and the familiar, distant and near and to record in detail with the eyes of a child, any beauty, (of the flesh or otherwise) horror, irony, traces of utopia or Hell. Select your team with care, but when in doubt, take on some new crew and give them a chance. But avoid at all costs fluctuations of sincerity with your best people.
Dan Eldon
-
Horror movies are always a solid dollar. But a movie about Groucho Marx is a gamble. These things just are. Doesn't matter who you are.
Rob Zombie
-
Any man can be kind when he is comfortable. I'd always thought kindness a trivial virtue, therefore. But when we were hungry, thirsty, sick, frightened, with our deaths shouting at us, in the heart of horror, you were still as unfailingly courteous as a gentleman at ease before his own hearth.
Lois McMaster
-
If you ask around, it's pretty easy to find someone who has a bank account overdraft horror story to tell.
Carolyn Maloney

The first horror movie I saw, in first or second grade, was My Bloody Valentine 1981, where there's a deranged killer in a miner mask stalking a small coal town.
Christopher Bollen
-
It's in the public domain. That's one of the reasons I do it so much. But luckily, it's a brilliant film [Night Of The Living Dead]. Every horror aficionado must see that film at least once.
Cassandra Peterson
-
Bombardment, barrage, curtain-fire, mines, gas, tanks, machine-guns, hand-grenades - words, words, but they hold the horror of the world.
Erich Maria Remarque
-
I was at the grocery store just buying lemons, and a person turns to me and says, 'Hey, you're the kid in the horror movie, right? Can I get a picture?' It was really random.
Milly Shapiro
-
Without music in a horror there is actually such a big part missing.
Daniel Stamm

Once the frontiers of horror have been crossed, one will pass from form to form beyond the human and from metamorphosis to metamorphosis to accomplish, in the anguish of an impossible return, the most terrible journey to the depths of darkness.
Georges Limbour
