Cato's List of Horror

I should change the name of this site to LISTS OF HORROR because that's all I've been posting here lately as you may have noticed.  So what; the kids love 'em.

Today's special guest blogger is Nick Cato, one of the nicest guys I've ever met in the horror community, who also happens to be interested in a lot of the same stuff that I am. He's a writer, editor, publisher, columnist, rock 'n' roller and probably a bunch of other things I don't even know about. Despite being the owner of two dachshunds, he's still one of my favorite people and you should all check out his link below. 

Here is his list of top horror books!
