"My first real experience with real horror came at the hands of Ray Bradbury – it was an adaptation of his story 'Mars is Heaven!' on Dimension X. This would have been broadcast around 1951, which would have made me four at the time. I asked to listen, and was denied permission by my mother. 'It's on too late,' she said, 'and it would be much too upsetting for a little boy your age.' ... I crept down to the door to listen anyway, and she was right: it was plenty upsetting... I didn’t sleep in my bed that night; that night I slept in the doorway, where the real and rational light of the bathroom bulb could shine on my face." -- Stephen King, Danse Macabre
