Perhaps for that reason, I don't have much time for Horror books or movies. I read Brian Keene's Darkness on the Edge of Town. It was well-written, but rather than fix the horrors, it has a cop out ending without hope. All horror, very little hope, no final relief. Bah.

That ending you describe is why I stop reading.
