I have always loved stories about the supernatural, I do not remember which movie went from being a child's movie about the paranormal or some adventure flick to being horror. I think perhaps the first real horror film I saw was The Firestarter, though it could have been some vintage black and white vampire movie to. I think I was 11 when I saw Coppola's Dracula and I think I saw Firestarter before that.
I do not think it was one character that made me love horror. I just love stories about the supernatural and such stories often are horror. Come to think about it it might be those early books and cartoons with ghost and vampire and witch characters which laid the foundation for the love I have for horror today.
That being said my earliest horror memory is from I was about a year old or so when my mother watched something with floating eyeballs, it obviously scared me, but fascinated me as well as I spoke about those floating eyeballs for years to come.
