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. His most recent books have been The Spawning, the short story collections Bone Marrow Stew and Zombie Pulp, and the novellas "1867: The Skulleater Campaign", "The Corpse King", and "Fear Me" When did you first become interested in writing? Oh, probably when I was 12 or 13. Up until that point my exposure to horror fiction came in the form of movies, TV, and horror comics.

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...
