(Horror)
Written and Produced by Frederick Greenhalgh
FinalRune’s latest tale of terror eclipses everything we’ve attempted so far, with a story that is chilling to the bone, the best performances to date, a stellar score and terrifying field FX recording on location on foggy and mysterious stretches of Downeast Maine.
Two teenage friends start scaring each other on the drive to a dismal “haunted” house on the coast of Maine. But when their innocent fun starts to become all too real, they soon realize what true terror is. A nod to Stephen King in a tale inspired by a true story too haunting to forget.

My name is Miriam Castro Huerga and I am a teacher of ESL at the Official School of Languages in Laguna de Duero (Valladolid, Spain). I am currently working on a mini-online project with my students, in which I want to grant them the opportunity of having a blended learning experience, that is, a combination of online and onsite teaching/learning process.
My intention was to create two or three modules with varied material, some related to what we were working in class and some totally different.
One of the modules is about narrative tenses and that is where the material on your page comes in very useful. I am writing to you to check whether it would be possible for me to use some of the material on the webpage by adapting it to my teaching purposes or having students referred to the page (mainly with the audio podcasts). I could make a selection of the works I could be interested in so you could actually talk with the authors concerned. I hope to hear from you soon. In the meantime, let me congratulate you on the idea you have had and wish you happy New Year.
Best wishes,
Miriam Castro Huerga
Its ight
Stephen King
The best horror writer in the world.
I want to write his typa stuff but I’m 13 and I dont want people to think I’m disturbed.
Should I go with my dream to scare people or will people think I’m crazy/psycho/morbidly obsessed.
Hi Thomas,
Well, I’ve always believed in following your dream, no matter what other people think. In the beginning, they may laugh at you, or think you’re weird. In the end, they will envy you and be mystified at how you’ve gotten as far as you have.
I started reading Stephen King too young myself – probably about your age (when I was asleep night after night reading Cujo and freaking myself out). The story Blind Man’s Confession I wrote and had published when I was 15. So, start now. You don’t want to wake up one day wondering why you never got around to following your dreams. Chase them now.
