There are those who believe that writing horror or any genre fiction (i.e. Romance, Western, Fantasy, etc.) is a much easier endeavor than that which is referred to as pure literature. Masters of Horror, such as Peter Straub, prove just how faulty that line of thinking is in practice. Peter is the shining darkness of contemporary literary horror, a meticulous writer who enjoys words and the way they can fit together like a jigsaw puzzle that doesn't reveal itself until fully formed.

I love horror—if I didn't, I'm totally working for the wrong website—but to be perfectly frank, all of these years of covering the gruesome side of gaming has left me a little jaded. Sometimes, when wading knee-deep in digital blood, I find myself pining for the more innocent side of horror, the simpler moments of childhood chillers that were all about a spooky atmosphere without the gut-churning terror of the more adult fare. There's that wide-eyed sense of "scary" that shifts as you get older, replacing Scooby Doo with SAW and leaves you wondering just where the hell the fun went. Sometimes, I just want to experience that more childlike sense of horror, where creepy castles and goofy monsters left you thrilled without chilling you to your very core. This innocent itch is perfectly scratched by Haunt.
The tale of the Donner Party is a gruesome footnote in the history of America. In the 1800s, a group of settlers headed west towards California. The trip was only supposed to take a few months, but severe weather caused the group of 80+ settlers to become trapped in the Sierra Nevada. Many turned to cannibalizing the dead in order to survive. Donner Pass is set in modern times, where the dark history of the Donner Party ruins a weekend getaway for a handful of high school students. We chatted with Donner Pass star Desiree Hall about her feature debut.
