I read a story once (The Raft) by Stephen King that scared me so badly my heart pounded as I turned the pages but could not put it down either.I don't read or watch things just to scare myself. I used to tell my students that if I wanted to scare myself, I just looked in the mirror in the mornings!Bookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043111213031211794noreply@blogger.com
