Me: I’ll write something light 😊 My brain: let’s emotionally devastate everyone instead 😌

Back to writing today and my brain is juggling edits, outlines, and new book ideas like a haunted circus 🖤✍️

Neon lights. Empty parking lots. Late night phone calls. Footsteps behind you when no one should be there. Pretty girls don’t survive horror movies. But they do try. Link in bio 🖤🔪 #PrettyLittleSlashers #SlasherBooks #HorrorAesthetic #IndieHorror #BookishVibes #HorrorReaders

Tonight we're diving in with some Resident Evil Requiem where I left off. Come chat as I fight for my life and struggle to survive the night... www.twitch.tv/rosaliesholl...

There's just something so relaxing about being with my animals 🖤

Horror question 👀 You wake up in a dark house with no power. What’s worse: Silence… or footsteps upstairs?

Tonight we're starting a stream forever save in The Sims. Come chat and chill with me! www.twitch.tv/rosaliesholl...

Elliot has always felt safer in the background. Quiet, thoughtful, and constantly overthinking everything, he’s the last person who believes he could survive something out of a horror movie. But fear has a way of forcing people into the spotlight. I can’t wait for you to meet him. 🖤🔪

Lena never expected college to turn into a fight for survival. She’s observant, stubborn, and far braver than she gives herself credit for. The kind of person who notices the things others miss… and refuses to look away when something feels wrong.

Doing a bonus stream playing DBD. This survivor main is gonna try to keep everyone alive... Come hang out! www.twitch.tv/rosaliesholl...

I made a Bookshop list of books with horror romance, cozy dread, final girls, and cursed love stories. the kind of books that make you feel watched (in a good way). 👉 link in bio support indie bookstores + feed your brain something a little haunted ✨

We're live for the first time in forever playing Choo Choo Charles... and diving in blind! Come hang out 👻🔪 www.twitch.tv/rosaliesholl...

Took a few days off writing because I was sick. Opened my document today and my brain said: ✨ I have never written a word in my life ✨

Sometimes I forget how important it is to step away from writing and refill the creative well. Today’s plan is simple: cozy drink, quiet evening, maybe a little gaming or reading What’s your favorite way to relax and recharge after a long day? 🖤

I revisit things I love. Usually playing Resident Evil or Outlast. Sometimes I do incorrect quotes for my characters & try to match who would actually say what. My latest inspiration for my newest idea is meta horror, so I'll be checking into those movies after I finish editing. #HorrorWritersChat

Made some more progress in Resident Evil: Requiem last night and I’m loving this game so much 🖤 Working on some writing right now, but I cannot wait to jump back in and play more later. It’s SO good.

New reads acquired 👀🖤 I picked up a couple of Resident Evil books and I cannot wait to dive in 🧟📖 I’m so excited to explore more of that world in book form—horror + lore + chaos? Yes please. Already counting down to getting comfy and starting them 👁️✨

I’m Rosalie— 👻 Horror author 🎮 Resident Evil / Outlast lover 🌲 Enjoys nature 🐈 Always with my cats I write cozy horror, ghosts, slashers, and dark romance. If you love quiet dread, haunted towns, and morally complicated stories, follow along—and tell me your favorite horror obsession! 👀

Spent some time with my family today 🖤 Working on the latest entry of the Dead End Diaries. Later I’ll be diving into The Orchard Witches or The Final Girl Theory… Might end the day getting comfy and doing some reading 📖✨ Almost finished with The Wife Upstairs and I’ve been enjoying it so far.

Did some planning for my business last night and all I can say is, I'm really looking forward to what the future holds. I've had consistent bad years since 2020. This years seems to be turning around for me. Thankful 🤞🏻🖤

Back to writing The Orchard Witches today 🌿🖤 The atmosphere is really starting to click and I’m loving this stage of the process 👁️ #amwriting #indieauthor #horror

11/10 don't reccomend the psycho-surgery on Outlast Trials 😭

I'm so excited

Had a busy week… but a good one 🖤 The Orchard Witches is now over 30,000 words 🍎🌳 I also started a new writing project, The Final Girl Theory and I can’t wait to share more as it comes together 🖤🔪 Feeling really grateful for this season of creating

These are my top six characters on CharacterHub 🖤👁️ Bailey was a random OC I made for a post-apocalyptic world, and I didn’t expect her to resonate how she did. Jill being a staff pick? 🥹🖤 I have so much love for her and her story. I can’t wait to share Knock, Knock (again) when the time is right.

Got some work done on The Orchard Witches today 🍎🌲 Spent a little time in The Outlast Trials (for research… obviously 👀), and now it’s time to sit down and keep building the next campaign for the Midnight Archive. A little horror, a little chaos, a lot of writing. 🖤

Hot take: final girls are scarier than the killers. Agree or disagree?

“The west trees weren’t supposed to have fruit this early.” Everyone in Briar Glen knows the rule. Never pick from the west trees. Still… if you saw it there, perfectly ripe, just within reach… Would you take it? 🍎👀

The Orchard Witches is sitting at about 24k words, just past the halfway point. Briar Glen is starting to reveal more of its history… and the reasons behind the orchard’s rules. Question for horror readers: Do you prefer slow creeping dread or sudden shocking moments?

A quick question for my Hungering Ghouls… What kind of horror do you reach for when the lights are low and the house is quiet? Choose one from each pair in the graphic and tell me your answers below. 🖤📚 I’m curious what kind of darkness you all prefer.

Waiting on Resident Evil Requiem to finish installing so I can play! I'm so excited
