Story Recommendation: The Empty House A famous 1906 ghost story by British author Algernon Blackwood, often featured in his collection The Empty House and Other Ghost Stories. It follows Shorthouse and his aunt as they investigate a notoriously haunted house in London, experiencing terrifying supernatural manifestations. Movie Review: Monster House A 2006 American animated supernaturalhorror comedy film. Dear Salinger, Your mom told me about Monster House scaring you. It sounds like one of the things that upset you is the fact that the house kept wanting to hurt people even after nobody wanted to hurt it anymore. I will tell you a secret that sounds so silly, you might not believe it, but this is true: I never finished writing Monster House before my bosses turned it into a movie. And then different writers, people I don't even know, changed the story in lots of ways, and the movie that you saw was not the story I wanted to tell you. I think a good story, even if it is sad or scary while you're watching it, should always make you a little less scared after you've seen it. And that didn't happen in Monster House. Why, after they escaped the house, did that old man tell them another scary story about a mean fat lady that didn't make very much sense either? I'll tell you why. Because Gil Kenan is a hack and Steven Spielberg is a moron. But hey, I shouldn't be dumping this stuff on you. I hope one day I can finish writing a movie that they don't change so much, and if you see it, I hope it makes you happy. Until then, I heard that Wall-E is very good, you should go see that. And next time Monster House is on, just remember that the guy that wrote it told you it was dumb. -Dan Haarmon Check out this link to buy DB's Books[link]
