Tim Curran is an American author of horror fiction. His works include the novels Skin Medicine, Hive, Dead Sea, Resurrection, Skull Moon, The Devil Next Door, and Biohazard.

A: I come in there because I am a housewife and I beat up two men in a bar.  I claim to be Anne Frank, which millions and millions of schoolchildren have read the book, we all assume is dead but do we really know.  I seem to have proof that what I say is true.  So at first nobody believes me but the more proof I bring the more people are investigating if what I say is true.  Not only that, there's somebody in there who works in this time that I seem to recognize from Auschwitz concentration camp.  So I'm pointing fingers at people too. Q: How will this affect the characters running the asylum? A: You definitely will but that is already set in motion isn't it?  Like you know, there's not going to be the moment where you're like oh my God, I thought this person was good.  I don't know if...
