Horror and Terror, Slashers and Stumps revisited

I had the pleasure this past weekend of attending the 2011 Stoker Weekend convention. One of the panels I sat on was one called Horror and Terror, Slashers and Stumps with Christopher Conlon, Lisa Morton and Norman Prentiss. Sound familiar? Yes, we were able to recreate to a degree the blog conversation the four of us had last year. Unfortunately, the original blog posts were virtually unseen. So, on the heels of the convention, Lisa Morton was nice enough–and tech-savvy enough–to place our original blog posts into one easy to read file on Scribd.com. For anyone interested in an in-depth discussion about the horror genre from the unique perspectives of four writers detailing their upbringing, their influences, and what “horror” means to them, here is the link: Horror and Terror, Slashers and Stumps
