I'm Samantha Bryant and I'm multi-genre both in and out of horror. Two movies I vibe with: The Others, 2001 and The Shining, 1980. #HorrorWritersChat

It’s Wednesday! It must be #HorrorWritersChat And this week we’re...going to the cinema! (virtually) This is your ticket #HorrorWriter #HorrorAuthor Join us at 7 pm GMT / 2 pm ET for four themed questions about the horror you write. Bonus: A promo opportunity for those who take part. 1/2

Each year, I set a goal to read 52 books. That amounts to one a week, and I usually make it or exceed it. Looks like I'll exceed it this year, because I already made it and there are still a few weeks left in 2025. How many books a year do you read, on average? Is it the right amount for you?

If you don't let us k1ll you slowly by taking away your only means to see a doctor, we will just k1ll you quicker by cutting off your food supply. Sincerely, The "gop"

so much suffering and sacrifice only to to agree to terms that will beget more suffering and sacrifice.

Thanks for a most enlightening and potentially cosmic lab at #HorrorWritersChat! Here’s a reflection I wrote on my thesis/WIP “AROMANTIC FRANKENSTEIN.” My blog also contains semi-spiritual, aroace reflections on cult classics. worrydollsandfloatinglights.wordpress.com/2025/03/02/w...

Thank you for tonight's admittance! Recent folk horror release Harrowfield is available to read on KU (but won't be forever!) & can be bought here mybook.to/Harrowfield Harrowfield has secrets & a Terrible Truth but whether it's what people want to hear is another thing. #HorrorWritersChat

Thanks Gree. My cosmic eco-horror novella packs a lot of unpleasant truths, mostly about one family, into a slim volume. Also, eldritch insects. #HorrorWritersChat payhip.com/b/58paC

#HorrorWritersChat Thanks Gree, this was fun! For those interested in books described as "Like Encanto but with more gore", which blend modern family drama with cosmic horror and dark humour, try my novel THIRTEENTH, out now with Canelo Horror! Links to my books: cmrosens-fiction.carrd.co

#HorrorWritersChat Thanks for hosting Gree! Sorry my darkness came out again. I have been plugging my book The Assassins Raven so much, I sometimes forget my short stories. This one A Good Day for Violence is in Dark Descent Vol 14 magazine, it matches the discussion today.

This was fun! Thanks #HorrorWritersChat for darkening my afternoon in all the best ways. If you'd like to see more of my dark side, check out my collection or the anthologies that include my work: dangerouswhenbored.com/collections/...

My chisel cracks the seal open. Only then did I understand the follow of my curiosity. These Terrible Truths belong not to the world, but are mine alone. Facing them may end me. #HorrorWritersChat

The doctor flat out admits that seals are being pried open and then asks for you to submit what your terrible truth is; how it can obliterate the world! Don't be fooled by such innocent-sounding inquiries. It's a trap! *Cackles madly off into the dark labyrinth of her own mind* #horrorwriterschat

#HorrorWritersChat The Terrible Truth? That HD may well stand . . . For nothing 😱

The Terrible Truths are the ones that break things apart, destroy egos, reveal abuses, make it impossible to pretend that everything is fine. Some might argue they are better kept unrevealed, but I believe it's all about timing. #HorrorWritersChat

I feel like Gree is just trying to get us to tell them where the seal of Terrible Truth is so they can take it for themselves? 😂 #horrorwriterschat

#HorrorWritersChat Thr seal is in the most horrifying and dangerous place, within ourselves, in the depths of our souls

It appears as something simple, something everyday, a bent paperclip in a drawer, a dust bunny under the bed...until the day you catch a hint of the uncanny and you know you're looking at something *more* #HorrorWritersChat

The best hiding places are often in plain sight, wouldn't you agree? And Terrible Truths are often just beneath the surface of very ordinary things, like a tea cup, or between the covers of a book. Oh, don't mind him. That's "just" my dog. #HorrorWritersChat

Hello! Matt from the hospital here where my first dose of chemo has just finished. I write as MG Mason, lots of ghost stories. The terrible truth? The manner by which humanity will destroy itself: petulant stupidity. But hope always accompanies, it can't be killed. #HorrorWritersChat

Greetings #HorrorWritersChat What a treat to be here together with Dr Bedlam! Mary, writer of cosmic, gothic and weird horror at your service. My Seal has been handed down to the eldest daughter in each generation. Its meaning? Unknown. But none dare break the seal and be named a Disappointment

#HorrorWritersChat - I'm Trish Wilson, Media Director for The Horror Zine. I write quiet horror and horror comedy. The seal containing my Terrible Truth is carved into a sigil I wear around my neck. If I don't wear that sigil, I go mad. Either that, or I sing "Prayer For The Dying" terribly offkey.

#HorrorWritersChat & I'm HD Beird, sexy weird This week HD stands for Halloween Dweller, cause if they can stary advertising Christmas in November I'm staying in October F'ck it! I write horror set in a secondary world sci-fi setting, full of smut and cynicism Seal? Uh, I like Kiss from a Rose

Good afternoon, Doctor. I love what you've done with the place. I'm a multi-genre author, always trying new forms, styles, themes, and subgenres. I regret to inform you I no longer have such a seal--I broke it years ago and set my Terrible Truths free to prey on humankind. #HorrorWritersChat

Distinguished Guest, the Honourable Dr. Amadeus Bedlam, founder and chair of the Primrose Collegiate, is inviting you to tonight’s conference discussing the frightful unknown. Your participation is most required. With illuminative regards, Valeria Ambrose, Collegiate Secretary #HorrorWritersChat

We're having such a beautiful fall in my corner of North Carolina. Bright and crisp, just like I like it. Cold enough for a nice cozy sweater. How's the season treating you?

How was your Halloween, if you celebrate? I squashed a lot into a few hours--decorating, feeding trick or treaters, and doing a spooky story reading in a cemetery as part of a Haunted Trail and party. This is my favorite picture--me hugging Vincent, my new skeleton :-)

🖤🎉✨ IT'S RELEASE DAY!!! ✨🎉🖤 Today's the day that Hearts of Bark and Scale is finally out 😍 I hope the world loves Kvisti and Iason as much as I do 🖤 Find it at buy.bookfunnel.com/1dx00okh5i (or in my linktree) #BookSky #BookRelease #WriteSky #Romance #Fantasy #FantasyRomance #Romantasy

More horror stories I love in celebration of the season. Here's a good one from Mary's Shelley's Frankenstein. The first time I read this, the "monster" broke my heart so hard. #readinghorror

This week, I'm giving a shout-out to our #HorrorWritersChat originator, the OG Matt @chaoticauthor.online If you've not checked out his books yet, now is the time, now is the hour. Here's some of what you can get, where you can get it, and how:

I don’t have a book out - yet. Instead, please check out something I wrote that’s a little different and a very quick read #HorrorWritersChat

Thanks for another awesome chat! I'm still raising money for Partners For Peace, a local domestic violence resource center, through the end of this month. Buy a copy of Little White Flowers, ask your local library to buy one, or donate directly through my Instagram fundraiser. #HorrorWritersChat

For me, it's the White Lady. That idea of grief lingering so bad that they're trapped here forever. #HorrorWritersChat

So, greetings, #HorrorwritersChat bods. I be Eryn, one of your co-hosts for this mighty event. I write psychological and supernatural horror, and I was always terrified of the dark as a kid. Or more importantly, what lurked out there in the dark.

Thanks for another great #HorrorWritersChat Always makes a Wednesday better. If you'd like to see more of the kind of horror I write, you can check out the "horror stories" section of my BRAND NEW WEBSITE! (It's been a long time coming) dangerouswhenbored.com/collections/...

It might be helpful at this phase of my life if more people actually believed that middle-aged women were witches. Might encourage them to keep their foolishness to themselves if they thought I could turn them into newts :-) #HorrorWritersChat

I haven't given up those more ancient fears just because we've added more contemporary ones. It's all fodder for the horror stories! #HorrorWritersChat

Part of me still believes that unexplained sounds in a quiet house must be caused by spirits of some sort and you can dispel any ill will by acknowledgement. I talk to the unseen…you know, just in case there's actually something there. #HorrorWritersChat

I was a creepy little thing who liked monsters and ghosts and the like, so my fears were more realistic: getting lost, getting stuck in something, mean people, etc. #HorrorWritersChat
