Which do you prefer - horror books or horror movies?
Which are scarier? Which are more entertaining?

Tough question but i think movies are scarier only because of the visual and audio factors. Then again reading a book with only your lamp on and listening to the noises of the night can be just as frightening! Still i lean toward movies.

I'm more of a bookworm myself, but movies are definitely not without merit.

I would have to say I'm into movies more "BUT" I only say that because movies take way less time to finish lol books are so much more into detail.

I picked books as Im a book worm. Most stories especially horror based rarely transfer well to film (i.e any Stephen King made for tv film, except possably Carrie), but horror movies as horror movies, a big thumbs up!

Books, it takes some skill to fully enjoy any book, let aalone one related to what might be defined as "horror" while being spoon-fed by the movies of things ghastly enough to make the thought of food,very uncomfortable, does not pose an intellectual challenge, as do the great horros stroies of our histoy, those by Shelley, Stoker, just to name two, to use ones mind to enhance what is presented, with no boundriess to how much "horror" can be created above and beyond what the author intended. Lovecraft is a challenge to extend the boundries of what one can memtally imagine to add just that one more flavor of horror to any of his works that all seem to be overflowing wwith it as it is written.
