I think I read some Poe last year with Mrs. Eaquinto, yet sadly, I cannot remember. Anyways, I did read a scary book one time and it freaked me out! I was younger and quite naive and the story was quite real at the time. 

If I go to the book store looking for a scary book and I find one, I expect to be reading a scary book. You can't call yourself a classic horror writer if the book is not scary.  The book I read, although for children, was very much scary.

I hope we read a good scary book because scary books aren't good if they are not really that scary.
