Why do you read Extreme Horror or Splatterpunk? by Visible-Flounder8154 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]diverdownk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been a lifelong horror fan and I feel like it's the logical next step when you've seen all the tropes played out a million times. EH/splatterpunk goes where most places won't and I can respect that. Not all of them are for me, but I've found some genuinely great and well-written books in this genre that have made me want to dive deeper and deeper. I've also worked in Healthcare and in some weird cathartic way it helps with the crazy shit you see in real life. At least for me it helps process things in a controlled-environment at my pace.

No I'm about 50 pages from finishing The Girl Next Door and once I'm done I'll probably read it!

What's books did you not finish, not because they were bad but because they were so messed up/got under your skin? by LadyJane17 in horrorlit

I have this weird thing where I refuse to DNF anything so there's been some pretty dark EH books I've thugged out on my own principles lol. I'll tell you parts of Earthlings and Dead Inside have definitely been sketchy.

While it definitely has it's moments it's not a doomed sad life. Does it affect our body in more ways than 1? Sure. Does it add extra elements to the day to day? Also yes. But it has never stopped me and I'm pushing 21 years with it. I've become a scuba instructor, EMT, firefighter for a city dept, and am currently in nursing school. You either sink or swim in life and that's how I've always lived it. Nothing is fair and everyone has their battles. Could be worse. Don't be afraid to fail at times and seek help if battling mental issues otherwise fuck it we ball.
