Horsham's Sarah Hamilton describes herself as a `massive Twilight fan' and said she bought her tickets to see the premiere at Centre Cinemas four weeks ago.

"I am really excited and I think it is great that in Horsham it is going to be shown the minute it can be - I thought they would only do that in the capital cities," Miss Hamilton said.

"There are so many Twilight fans out there, it is huge all around the world and it is the same here in Horsham."

Miss Hamilton said she loved the series because of the romantic story line and Edward Cullen, a main character.

"Edward is everything a girl would want, but he is a vampire," she said.

"There is such a strong love story between him and Bella - it really shows that true love conquers all."

Centre Cinemas' Berenice Tottenham said interest in the premiere screening of Twilight had been enormous.

"So far we have 180 pre- booked to come and see the 12.01am show, but we have the capacity to hold 370," Mrs Tottenham said.

"Everyone who has come and got tickets is so excited about it - there are a lot of Twilight fans in Horsham.

"And we are showing the original Twilight movie at 9.30 tonight so people can do a double session."
