In the mid-eighties, when I was but a disturbed young adult, I was wandering through my brain one day looking for a way to express myself in a shocking manner. You see I was kind of a messed up adolescent and had tried nearly everything to release my anger and hatred. Which was probably not far from happening. Thankfully I had an addiction far greater than any drugs I could take; I was addicted to horror. Stephen King, Clive Barker, Peter Straub; all had shrines in my room. They were my release from the insanity of real life and took most the pressure off my awkwardness. Thus, near the middle of my senior year in high school, I sat before an old typewriter and a stack of ditto paper (whats that?) and created what was to be the first issue of Fright. I have taken great pains to resurrect the originals for you here as an introduction to what was and is to come. Of course I am much older now (and entering my second adolescence) with a little more understanding of how these things are supposed to be done so most grammatical and spelling errors, unless intended, have not only been corrected but the stories themselves are improved in every way. I believe my mother would be proud and that I’ll probably end up owing my father money if this sells. Perhaps even the original dittos will be collectors items! Please let me know if you still own one!
So, without any further ranting I present to you the history of Fright!
