Horror films.

[Cintia]

1. Do you like horror films, such as films about Dracula and Frankenstein? Why or why not? (If you are not interested in horror films, go to question 4.)

I'm not into horror movies at all. They seem to me a waste of time.



4. "It was on a dreary night of November that I saw the result of my labours...". Write the first three sentences of a horror story. Post it. Read any other horror story beginnings that have been posted. Choose one and continue it.

The sound of a drop trickling echoed in the emptiness of the dark room. I could hardly see anything and it took me a while to get my eyes adapted to the darkness. Then, suddenly I saw a man hanging from the roof next to one of the room's corner and I realized that below him was a growing blood puddle, that was increasing with every drop that continued coming down from the body.

Hi Cintia,
I don't like horror movies nor stories, but not because of the waste of time, rather because they impress me in a bad way, they scare me and I don't like to experience this kind of feelings.

I immediately realized that he wanted me to glimpse the disturbing drawings on the wall. A long time ago it should have been a child room, or, to be more precise, the room of a young monster
