"I feel more awake, more alive for reading Kit. His work is vital and necessary. I can't recommend it enough" - Neil Snowdon, Electric Dreamhouse PressBigger. Bolder. More Personal. Picking up where My Life In Horror Volume I left off, this book collects the final five years of essays in Kit Power’s celebrated My Life In Horror blog series, each one revisited and revised for this edition. For Volume II. The subject matter is even more eclectic than Volume I, with totemic horror works sitting alongside other pop culture artifacts and deeply personal experiences as Kit digs deeper, really trying to get under the skin of the art that moved him as a child and young man... and to answer that seemingly eternal question, Why Horror? This volume two collection includes essays on The Nightmare On Elm Street franchise, Candyman, George Ramero's Martin, Bodycount's debut album, Natural Born Killers, Superman III, The Columbine massacre, and many, many more. As with Volume I, each essay has been revisited and revised, creating a second autobiography via the medium of pop culture. "It's his life in horror, but he sure as hell makes it feel like yours, too" James Everington, Author of The Quarantined City PRAISE FOR VOLUME “If you want to mainline someone’s utter love and immersion in books, movies and music, with beautifully honest reflections on life, the world, and everything, look no further.” Stephen Volk, Screenwriter and Author “My Life In Horror is a loving, enthusiastic, insightful and compulsive read for any fan of the genre. I fully recommend it.” - Brian Keene, Horror Grandmaster “ This book is almost impossible to put down.” - Tracy Fahey, The Unheimlich Manoeuvre
