Dear HorrorTalk community,

This is GraveyardManiac posting. I am 25 years old and the newest member on the discussion board. I am more than glad to be here since I love exchanging thoughts with those that have the same passion I have. Horror movies are my passion. I have a lot of interests, but horror is always in a sense totally unique to me.

I would like to thank the HorrorTalk team in particular. In my view the reviews are well-written and interesting to read, the design is smply amazing and the community looks cool and a fun place to be. I hope I will fit right in. Thanks for having me.

If you have any question for me, shoot!

You are welcome, and thank you very much.

I am just posting this second line now since I don't want our messages to look almost identical. :lol:

Welcome to the forum. Have you been a HT reader for long?

Thanks.

I had first heard about this site about two or three years ago I believe. A very good friend of mine introduced the site to me (not sure whether he was or still is a member - we haven't spoken in a year). Back then, the design on the front page was different (not sure about the forum, but it was run with phpbb already). What caught my attention was the quality of the reviews and the interesting writing style in particular.

Unfortunately, I had forgotten the name of the domain for the past few months - just couldn't remember it for some bizarre reason. Recently, I was looking for horror websites via google and found Horrortalk again. Then I decided to join the board.

We've just had a massive overhaul of the frontpage in the last couple of days, I hope you like it.

Thanks also for your kind comments on the reviews, it's good to know that people appreciate what we do.

Stick around, it's an interesting (and sometimes abrasive) bunch on here, but we're all good people. Mostly. :lol:

I do like the new design. It's pretty cool. Horror websites just have to be in black and red, you know.

I can handle abrasive. If somebody breaks a line, I'll let them know. Don't hold back.

One thing, though: I know English as a second language. If you have a hard time trying to actually get what I am saying, please let me know as soon as possible. And, everybody, please never take offence to anything I say. If you do, tell me so we can sort things out.

Most of the Americans on here have English as a second language too. :lol:

In all seriousness, I don't think anyone would have picked up that English wasn't your mother tongue.
