Behind the Masks of the Characters of the Most Unnatural Cinema Genre

ALBANY, Ga. - Aug. 19, 2016 - PRLog -- Do you dare to step behind the screams? In Jason Norman's new book, horror fans finally see the actors behind the monster masks and learn the secrets behind the scream queen's shrieks. Terror has never been so terrific.

BearManor Media announces the release of Behind the Screams by Jason Norman.

How performers smoothly transformed from a warm, friendly member of society into a fictional creation of pure evil has sometimes been preserved in secret, and those make-believe heroes and heroines have also kept hush-hush the ways their characters overcame malevolence . . . until now.

Discover the steps these actors took to remake themselves into the characters of the most unnatural cinema genre: Neve Campbell and Heather Langenkamp, who turned themselves into true Scream Queens; Tim Curry, whose work in It showed that even TV movies can be terrifying; Brad Dourif, the man who became a killer doll for several rounds of Child's Play; those who visited the original Last House on the Left, and those who came back in the remake; those few who met their Final Destination; the many who fought Jaws, and some who didn't win; the freaks we met over a season of American Horror Story; some we lost in The Walking Dead.

Stars profiled include those featured in underrated flicks, such as Trick 'r Treat, Escape from Tomorrow, Sick Girl, Da Sweet Blood of Jesus, and Dark Night of the Scarecrow. Also Joseph Bishara, Raine Brown, Roger Jackson, Marcia de Rousse, John Carroll Lynch, Denis O'Hare, Gene Jones, Nick King, Piper Laurie, Madison Lintz, Addy Miller, Rachel Miner, Chloe Moretz, David Naughton, Linnea Quigley, Debbie Rochon, Chris Sarandon, Sissy Spacek, Dawn Wells, and Mary Woronov.

Illustrated with more than 100 photos.
