One of the biggest inspirations for my career was the two volumes
published by Avon Books in the early 90s from author and
interviewer Stanley Wiater. The books Dark Dreamers Conversations
with the masters of Horror, and Dark Visions: Conversations with
the masters of the Horror Film were foundational for me.
Featuring two dozen interviews in each book from Vincent Price
and Clive Barker to Richard Matheson and Anne Rice. These
interviews were some of the best ways we had to learn about the
process of turning ideas into produced works of fiction and film.


We talk about Stanley’s origins and memories of recording the
history of the horror genre. This is a really fun conversation
about horror and science fiction history.
