Books, lots and lots of books, singing, making music, literature, writing, horror movies, Hallowen (yay!), reading, psychology, sociology, philosophy, photography, art, asian horror movies, really good movies in general...
People. People who don't suck. People who aren't drama-inducing maniacs that live to suck my soul out of my body.
People that can intelligently discuss music without bringing in scene politics and/or stupid ideas about what's "cool."
People that read books, because those are my favorite kind of people.
People that like Haunted Houses and my infamous zombie nurse costume.

Anything by Richard Matheson, "Hitchcock/Truffaut,"

Danielewski, "I Am Not Myself These Days" by Josh Kilmer-Purcell, "Death Makes a Holiday" by David J. Skal, "Lolita" by Vladimir Nabokov, "Perfume" by Patrick Suskind, "Invisible Monsters" by Chuck Palahniuk, Anything by Ambrose Bierce, because he's sick, and I can relate to that, the "Post Secret" books, Shirley Jackson's short stories... I read lots of memoirs and creepy horror stories, and somtimes I throw some psychology books into the mix.
I can't decide if comic books count as actual "books."
