I got together with Lynne Hansen and Jeff Strand for lunch earlier today at the Carnegie Deli inside The Mirage for the first of what I hope will be five episodes of Eating the Fantastic<\/em> recorded during the inaugural StokerCon<\/a> in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

Lynne is a horror novelist turned filmmaker whose recent short, Chomp<\/em>, received 21 nominations at a variety of film festivals, winning 7 times, including the Fright Meter Awards Best Short Horror Film of 2015, and Jeff Strand is not only the author of the wonderfully titled horror novels I Have a Bad Feeling About This<\/em> and The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever<\/em> (and many others)—he’ll also be the emcee Saturday for the Stoker Awards banquet.<\/p>\n

Over sandwiches which were —unexpectedly for a deli like the Carnegie—not quite as big as a baby, we chatted about how the horror supercouple came together after the 1995 World Horror Convention, why she’s moved on from novels to movies while he’s gone in exactly the opposite direction, what writers must keep in mind when creating YA horror, how she’s turning one of his novellas into a full-length movie titled Cold Dead Hands<\/em>, and much more.<\/p>\n
