1 " I prompt and stimulate by the framing of a horrible painting which I have lightly sketched in some of the background - but it is up to the reader to flesh out the rich and graphic detail which I have merely suggested. That is the key to the true frightening ghost story. We each have our own personal terrors which are greater, darker, more fertile, more frightening than anything I could conceive of my own. I simply stimulate the imagination and you - the reader - take the bare bones, the hints of horror and make them flesh. That, my boy, is the key. "
― David Stuart Davies , The Halloween Mask: And Other Strange Tales
