Jane Goldman

I've always been drawn to spooky things, to the unusual, to things that are dark but in a friendly way.

Establish character - otherwise, it is difficult to connect with what is frightening.

You need to be invested in what happens. The characters are your conduit to the story. Many modern horror films are fun but not frightening because one has not connected with the characters.

I'm sensitive and get easily upset and insulted.

The process of writing has always started for me when I put myself in a place where no one distracts me.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
