 Hi, I'm Steve.
Ugly looking dude aren't I?
Anyway, welcome
to my site.
I have been a horror fan all
of my life and
as a child I loved reading ghost stories and watched more
than my fair share of Frankenstein films from behind the sofa.
Nothing has
changed much
over
the years,
except that I now watch the films from the right side of the sofa and
also write a little as well. In the past I have written all
sorts of things including poetry and magazine
articles, but I prefer writing horror stories and that is what I try to
concentrate on.
In 2006 I became an
affiliate
member of the Horror Writers
Association , using my story Stalker
as qualifying
material. Stalker
was published in the UK Women's magazine Best (2005).
Obviously for that market I had to tone things down a bit, but the
story still had a strong element of fear.
I built this site in 2006
and rather than
just have a page or two that listed my published stories I decided that
would try and turn the site into a useful resource for fans of the
horror genre. With this in mind I began adding reviews. Whenever I read
a book I wrote a review and added it to the site. After I'd finished
watching a horror film I reviewed that as well and added another page
to the site. Hopefully the
reviews might be a useful in helping people decide
if a
particular film or book will
be of interest to them.
 A lot
of older films now fall into the public domain and can be passed around
freely. I love the old, classic horror films. I know that I am
not alone in this and so the site also has a
section where visitors can watch some classic chillers from the
days when the special effects weren't that special, but with
people like
Vincent Price in front of the camera they didn't need to be anyway.
The 'My Stuff' section of
the site
is a list
of my published work.
Hope you find something
useful on the site.
Steve Calvert

DVD Review: So You've Downloaded a Demon (2007)
I dont think anyone who has seen it would ever consider So Youve Downloaded a Demon to be a serious horror film. It is very entertaining to watch, but is so lighthearted that even the most...
