The writings of H.P. Lovecraft, Steve Niles, Richard Laymon, Clive Frickin' Barker, Brian Hodges, Krista Faust's "Hoodtown", Poppy Bright, Joe Lansdale, honestly a lot of people knock me out. Bass Guitar, aggressive guitar based rock that has the sack to have harmonies and melodies also. A movie or story that surprises me. Good art and the people who create it.
Horror lovers, be ye writers, poets, visual artists, and punk rockers of all kinds, preferably smart ones.
