Tamara and Alistair have obvious chemistry and were so easy to talk to. They immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease.

"This show fills a desperate need in the literary horror community: serious conversation about what horror is, how one writes it, why one would bother, what one should read, in the company of two expert and delightful hosts. I had a great time, will be more than happy to come back and spread the word, and will definitely be steering my colleagues your way as both guests and listeners."

~ Glen Hirshberg, Shirley Jackson Award winning author

~ Michael Aronovitz, author of Seven Deadly Pleasures, The Voices in Our Heads, and Alice Walks.


"I’ve done a lot of interviews in my time and rarely have I had as much fun as I did with hosts Alistair Cross and Tamara Thorne. Though their stock in trade may be the cold spirits of ominous specters, I found them far more warm and welcoming than the average “haint." I had such a good time that I am... <ahem>.... dying to do it again!"

~ Hal Bodner, author the West Hollywood Vampire series


"I have seldom had so much pure, unalloyed fun doing a radio show as I did on Thorne & Cross: Haunted Nights Live. Tamara and Alistair are engaging, professional, and easy to talk to -- they are gracious hosts. I felt as though we were chatting easily over a glass or two of wine and a plate of snacks. The hour flew by, and by the time we were done, my face hurt from smiling so much! I can't wait to get back on the show ... and I know that when we do, we'll pick up the conversation as though we've been apart for five minutes."

~ Sylvia Shults, author of Fractured Spirits: Hauntings at the Peoria State Hospital


"I must say, of all the interviews I have given during my writing career, appearing on Haunted Nights LIVE was, by far, the most enjoyable of them all. The chemistry between Tamara and Alistair is fantastic and handled in such a way that it is easy for a guest like myself to not only join in, but feel like we've all been hanging out and talking for years. Never before have I felt so at ease during an interview. It was so much fun, and, if given the opportunity, I would love to do it again!"

~ William Malmborg, author of Jimmy, Text Message, and Scraping the Bone

 

"Being on Haunted Nights LIVE! with Tamara and Alistair was wonderful! I had a previous association with them through my blogs, but I didn’t know how it would turn out exactly. I went in with some nerves, as I always do in any radio interview, yet they made me feel totally at ease. I love their conversational style and the fact that these professional interviewers really did their homework on my career as an author. The hour just flew by and I can’t wait to come back for another appearance! Kudos to the Thorne & Cross team for making me feel so welcome! I couldn’t have asked for better hosts!"

~ Marie Lavender, author of Magick and Moonlight and Upon Your Return
