Summary: On this the 200th Anniversary of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, maybe it’s time to reflect on what are our greatest horror masterpieces. The programme you are about to hear, “The Most Terrifying Children’s Book Eve”, was held as part of the 2018 New Zealand Young Writers Festival. Craig Cliff and a group of overactive imaginations argue that it’s not Mary Shelley, Anne Rice or Stephen King we should be most afraid of, but rather Maurice Sendak, Lynley Dodd or Margaret Wise Brown.
