I enjoy reading horror fiction.  when I get a chance to read. 
That's interesting, horror is very captivating to me but sometimes it can frighten me too much.
ha me too!  But I suppose the intention of it is to frighten and startle the readers.
Yes, I agree with you that is the intent. Do you think that horror is usually more consistent in novels as opposed to movie presentations, generally speaking?
I think so.  Generally, it seems more realistic (I guess in my mind) while I read rather than when I see it in movies.  In fact, I don't really like horror movies at all.
I figured you might feel this way. I agree that horror seems more difficult to translate to movies the way it does in books. Have you played any horror video games?
I have watched Resident Evil being played...but never played it myself.  Do you play them?
