Alien/Aliens is a given for most people. I have been watching Event Horizon during the spooky season for years. What are some of your favorite books and movies with a horror/psychological thriller lean?

      Are these novels or short stories?

        The Ellison, Martin, and Willis stories are a novella and short stories (in that order) and I can vouch for all 3 being fantastic.

          Ellison wrote almost every popular scifi TV property in the 60’s and 70’s.

      I’m so happy to see “A Song for Lya” on your list. It’s one of my favorite SF stories!
