Finding Paragraph #2

Another question of mine is how do the writers think so creativly? I found out how Wes Craven thought of making a horror movie on kids falling asleep and never waking up (A Nightmare on Elm Street) in a article i found in a book "Cinema year by year by David Thomson".
The quote was " Craven got the idea from a news item about Laotian refugees so afflicted with horrifying nightmares that they became terrified of falling asleep. He has transplanted the theam to the realm of "teen terror" and in the process created an outrageous new bogey man, the hamburger-faced, razor-taloned Freddy Kruger, a child murderer who was burned to death after escaping conviction and has now returned to his old stamping ground on Elm street to haunt the dreams of its teenage inhabitants." (Thomson). I think Wes Craven is very creative by how he thought of making that movie. Iv always wanted to think creativly like him, and either make a horror movie or be in a horror movie.
