You're writing horror epics when the audience has become increasingly numbed by cinematic hokum and stale ideas. I salute you: your ambition, your dedication, your achievements, your blissfully complex imagination...." ----Clive Barker (bestselling author & director, Hellraiser, etc.)"Grabowsky succeeds in making the whole world creepy...." ----Heidi Martinuzzi, E! Entertainment Television"Grabowsky's writing is at times touching and emotional, however, his real talent is his ability to infuse his writing with a sense of dread and loathing that I have not experienced since H.P. Lovecraft..." ----Tahoe Daily Tribune"Grabowsky has imagination to spare.....!" ---Sacramento Bee"Impressive storytelling....." ----Wes Craven (Dir., A Nightmare on Elm Street)".....soon we'll all be hearing about this Grabowsky guy...." ---Joe Dante (Dir, Gremlins, The Howling)"Keep 'em coming, Nicholas...." ----Stephen King"All hail Grabowsky!" ---Horrorweb.com"Grabowsky melds horror and Sci-fi with such expertise that I am left speechless." ---Gorezone Magazineview less
