Random quote: "I think that most of us, anyway, read these stories that we know are not "true" because we're hungry for another kind of truth: the mythic truth about human nature in general, the particular truth about those life-communities that define our own identity, and the most specific truth of all: our own self-story. Fiction, because it is not about someone who lived in the real world, always has the possibility of being about oneself. " - Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game)

What does anyone else think about the Brothers Grimm?

Personally I feel that their contribution (or foundation) of horror has been under estimated.

Cannabalism. Forests. Executed bodies dangling from the gallows. Haunted castles.

The original 1815 versions are raw and full of images that horror fans will already know.

Why would anyone go to a churchyard at night and talk to their mother's grave? Why would you spend a night (or three) in a haunted castle? Why would you ignore a warning not to go in that house? Because it's horror, that's why!
