Local horror author Paul Tremblay and his daughter Emma on what the genre means to them

Local author Paul Tremblay, who has won several awards for his horror books such as “Cabin at the End of the World," has an essay out this week for a new collection called “Why I Love Horror.” In it, he tells five stories about his earliest experiences with the genre.

He and his daughter, Emma, who drew pictures for the stories, joined WBUR's Morning Edition to talk about the work, and their shared relationship with horror.
