<3 MY LOVE OF CLIVE BARKER GROWS STRONGER <3
I didn’t know he was gay until very recently, but it is nice to see all these horror creators be decent people. I guess there’s a logic of them having made stories of fictional horrors, it makes one more aware of the horrors of the real world and gives them a desire to be better.
The horror genre tends to attract those of us who are LGBTQ for much the same reason why many horror writers and fans tend to be good people….as someone in the Shudder “Queer for Fear” series put it: “We know what it’s like to be the one on the end of that pitchfork”
