Horror: Preferred Medium

Books and games. Books because your imagination is a lot better at scaring you than any film and games because it's YOU that has to take that next step down the dark ally, it's YOU that has to go and check out that strange noise.

I put written word + pictures, not because of horror comics, but I do like horror stories with the occasional illustration, I find that doesn't hamstring the imagination, but enhances the experience.

@jonny_anonymous: Games, derp. Totally missed the most obvious category.

Written word. Horror movies are fun too watch sometimes, but they never scare me.

I have to go with movies. Horror movies are a great example in particular of how powerful film can be. Plus alot my favorite characters and things related to horror are born in the movies.

Literature FTW.

No preference for me.

Movies

tv and movies.

On screen. All the sound and everything adds a lot to it.

Now that I think about it, yes. This is right. Book dementor actually scared me, while movie dementor wasn't scary at all in comparison.. I gave a little too much attention to 'people can't see them even when they're around' stuff and woke up in the night. Well, In my defense, I was up late for long reading that book, and if I drift off directly from something to sleep, I tend to think about it in sleep (I mean, literally. I have thought about atomic structure when half asleep lol)

To quote H.P. Lovecraft : "...the strongest kind of fear is the fear of the unknown."
