I've wanted to write a ghost story for years, and my main aim was to write the most frightening ghost story that I could think of.

I went to a haunted house once, and I don't do well in situations like that, and I've lived my entire life not being scared or anything.

If I read a scary story in the newspaper, I find I'm haunted by it.

As a child I loved ghost stories.

Ghost stories really scare me. I have such a big imagination that after I watch a horror movie like 'The Grudge', I look in the corners of my room for the next two days.

I am one of the haunted.

I have mostly been terrified of listening to scary stories around a campfire. We camp a lot as a family, and at night my dad would try and tell us scary stories. This made eating s'mores difficult. The story would start with something like... 'and the old man who lived in these woods...' I would then run back into the camper terrified.

I've been reading ghost stories ever since I could read. I'm immensely curious about ghosts and UFOs and all that stuff, but I'm a very hard-headed person.

I've been a storyteller all my life. When I was in high school, I used to amuse myself by driving through the woods at night and see how long it would be before I scared the pants off my friends - and if I could do it before I scared myself.
