Horror Addicts Guide to Life Author Spotlight: Dean Farnell

Dean Farnell writes quirky songs & poetry, mainly paranormal / horror themed as a bit of fun. The songs are recorded in one single take so are raw demos in effect but have still been played on over 600 various radio stations and podcasts all over the world. For Horror Addicts Guide To Life  Dean wrote a poem called “The Kings Of Horror” which is about the masters that got us into the genre, such as Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi and all the other greats of horror. To read Dean’s poem along with several articles on living the horror lifestyle, pick up a copy of Horror Addicts Guide To Life. Recently Dean was nice enough to tell us what he likes about horror:

 

What do you like about the horror genre?

What I like about the horror genre: one reason is the strange thrill of being scared, For years people have flocked to cinemas and bought books to basically get frightened which seems bizarre yet millions of people like to do it.
Monsters, aliens, ghosts, witches etc. are also of great mystery to us humans and provide hours of debate regarding to their existence. I personally love the Halloween toys, clothes, and accessories which adorn the shops in October great time of year.

What are some of your favorite horror movies, books or TV shows?

My favourite horror films were the Hammer Horror films from ’60s and ’70s.  I must have been about 11 when my dad used to let me stay up late to watch them on a Saturday night.  Anything with Frankenstein, Dracula, Mummy, Werewolf would fascinate me.  I like the basic not over produced feel about those films. My Ultimate classic favourite films that I love are Psycho, Halloween, The Birds and the Salem’s Lot series with David Soul.  They are hard to beat for a horror thrill.

For TV Shows it’s the fabulous Addams Family and The Munsters all day long.  I can watch them for hours, horror and humor are a terrific combo.
Although I write horror poetry I never really did read horror novels but I could not resist reading “Jaws” when it first came out.
P.S. and of course not forgetting The Horror Addicts Guide To Life.

In what way do you live the horror lifestyle?

Regards which way I live the horror lifestyle is really just writing horror poetry and promoting my self-written horror themed songs which I send off to radio stations mainly in the USA.
Do also enjoy catching up with a vintage Hammer film.

Where can we find you online?

The quickest way to find my songs poems is by Googling my name and links will direct you to my past work. People can find my past work online through iTunes, Amazon, my facebook page , youtube, Tunevibe.com, Indie charts, 365 live Radio.

Free Fiction Friday: Dracula’s Dilemma by Dean Farnell

Dracula’s Dilemma

A Poem by Dean Farnell

Dracula attended the local dance

He wanted a girl and takes a chance

He nibbles her neck to woo his mate

The girl got wise and he bites too late.

 

Dracula’s night Is a complete disaster

He’s so used to being a passion master

His charm and poise to claim a lover

Came to an end when she blew his cover.

 

In his quest for blood he becomes more mellow

He throws his cape round a nice young fellow

Excuse me chap I’m not being rude

If I can’t get a girl then you will do.

Zombie Barbecue by Dean Farnell

Zombie Barbecue

by Dean Farnell

Lots of strange things happened,

At the zombie barbecue,

There’s steaks of human flesh,

Pinched from a grave or two.

The drinks were made from stagnant blood,

All blended with a mixer,

The stench of rotting bodies,

Add flavor to the mixture.

The zombies start to dance and sing,

The DJ was dead good,

He stuck on Jackson’s thriller,

Like a living person would.

The party then turns nasty,

When a zombie rival lingers,

It turned into a bloodbath,

When he munched somebody’s fingers.

The guts and bones start flying,

It’s survival of the dead,

The winners prize awaits them,

Dead flesh and moldy bread.

The barbecue has ended,

In death and mass destruction,

For me, I won’t be going,

To another zombie function.

Zombie Lust by Dean Farnell

Zombie Lust

by Dean Farnell

My flesh Is falling off all I did was cough

I’ve never felt as ill as this before

My lips have all gone blue, I don’t know what to do

I thought I’d rest in peace forever more.

I’m feeling rather peckish humans are my fetish

I’ll see If I can find some in the park

I’ll pass on KFC and pizzas not for me

I fancy feasting on a human heart.

I was peaceful in my grave but now I misbehave

I’m chasing girls and scaring everyone

I’m like a man possessed, I’m lusting after flesh

This zombie lark is really quite good fun.
