Alright, with Count
Santa Synti being reserved for next year (yeah, no new chapters until next October), I want to write another horror story to hold you guys over. And it will be a Christmas-horror story as well (because Christmas is coming
). I'm just asking: If you were to read a horror book, what would scare you?

Stuff about Hannah Montana
Hmm. I find alien viruses and things very creepy, like in the Andromeda Strain.

Unholy intervention in human affairs
IDEA! how about a story involving a sappy bunch of poseur satanists who unknowingly unleash a demon upon the dark street of a city on the night of New Years Eve? if you don't write it, I will XP

Ghosts and stuff I find lame. Back in the days when I read 'books' (they seem foreign to me now) I mainly got freaked out by thriller sort of stories/kidnappings. usually where the killer was a trusted person.
Seems more real. So I say realistic things are scarier. Just not necessarily as fun

I always get good and freaked out by a stalking story that has the main character eventually dissolve into debilitating paranoia, then recover, then get jumped

Cosmic horror.
Nothing more terrifying than finding out God is some variant of Cthulhu.

I know this may be considered necroing the thread, but I had to comment.
There's a difference between a Satanist and someone who worships Satan. Please don't mix up the two.
