Where the Streetlights End

I'm here to examine the ways in which imagination, instinct, authority, and society intersect to create the horror stories we share. Those horror stories can be fact, fiction, or anywhere in-between. 

The goal is ultimately to learn and have fun. 

A secondary goal is to untangle that intangible web of horror, lore, psychology, and history that serves as a curtain between the words we speak and the way we feel. What makes us tick? Why do some vampires look like that? 

Monsters, man-made horrors, mad scientists, and mass hysteria. All of these things, when examined at their core, tell us so much about who we are.
