#HorrorWritersChat Too many to name but @annieneugebauer.bsky.social is one of those brilliant writers who I'm always excited to see in a collection. Clive Barker and David Cronenberg for making the viscerally horrific beautiful.

#HorrorWritersChat You're getting black coffee because it's all I write with. And for food, more coffee.

I'd definitely love for Little White Flowers to get a film adaptation. I don't have specific actors in mind for who I'd like to play the leads, but I would like to see neurodivergent actors at the helm since my main character Alice is autistic and her brother Andy is an ADHDer. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Hampton Heights is the best suited for screen. A noir detective solves a missing girl case involving a Hmong folk legend. A truly grizzled private eye. Give me Oscar Isaac

#HorrorWritersChat Hi all! I'm Ryan. I write all kinds of horror and dark fantasy. I would say Tales from the Crypt captures some of my vibes while The Fly (1986) captures the rest of them

🚨 We’re hearing that Senate Democrats are on the verge of caving to Trump in another “Schumer Surrender.” That means your Democratic senators need to hear from you right now. Call: indivisible.org/resource/cal... Email: act.indivisible.org/sign/funding...

Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

In Memoriam: Cheney Haunted By People He Didn't Manage To Kill In Iraq War

happy no novel november to all who celebrate in which we will continue to write new short stories instead of our novels

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 39/?? An American Werewolf in London (1981) Figured I'd continue the werewolf-oween with one of my all-time favorite movies. Great horror-comedy balance. Fun soundtrack. The transformation scene of course, but the subway was the scene that made me fall in love

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 38/?? Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) Continuing the universal monsters mostly because it was on the same disc as The Wolf Man. Pretty fun. Creepy opening in the crypt as well

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 37/?? The Wolf Man (1941) Lon Chaney, Jr. brings the anguish of the curse to exquisitely painful levels in the werewolf movie that started them all.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 36/?? Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost The most Halloween of the Scooby Doo movies: New England Autumn setting, Tim Curry being Tim Curry, and the Hex Girls.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 35/?? Scooby Doo on Zombie Island This era of Scooby-Doo movies really hits that cozy Halloween vibe.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 34/?? Halloween (1978) Saved the iconic movie to kick off the Halloween day marathon.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 33/?? Satan's Little Helper (2004) I genuinely can't tell if I like this movie or not. Feels like a hyper-evil Disney original.

#HorrorWritersChat In the spirit of fun, I think we need a new lake monster. I haven't heard of a new one in a long time. Someone find a lake and a forgotten dinosaur at the bottom please.

We still fear the dark. We still fear the unknown. Darkness? Turn on a light. ...but the light is flickering Alone and afraid? Call a friend on the phone. ...but the phone is answered by a stranger Our tech comforts still lead to new horrors. Old stories retold with tech work. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat I think they're all the same stories, just told in different ways. What we're afraid of is our helplessness and vulnerability in the face of these unknowns. All that changes is what kind of vulnerability is being exposed

#HorrorWritersChat Anything about something big in the woods that wants to eat me. It's easy to say I don't believe in superstition at home, in the city. It's a lot harder camping in the dark away from electricity or walls.

Hi y'all! I'm a queer TX based author that writes historical, specfic, & Southern Gothic horror all inspired by my Choctaw-Irish heritage. What scared me? Skin stealing monsters, aliens, My dad just growling "once upon a time." while we were camping and... Zeke the Plumber. #HorrorWritersChat

Greetings #HorrorWritersChat I'm Mary from Greater Manchester (UK), where I write cosmic, gothic and Weird horror. My childhood fears were pretty mundane, real-world stuff. And I'm not sharing those online. The ghost haunting my childhood home was friendly with me. Graveyards were comforting.

Hello all! I'm Ryan. I write all varieties of dark fiction but mostly horror and dark fantasy. I had a terrible fear of the void even as a young child to the point where I was afraid of falling asleep because I wasn't there for it. The existential dread crept in on me young... #HorrorWritersChat

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 32/?? Dark Night of the Scarecrow (1981) A made for TV movie that has no business being this good. One of my favorite watches for the Halloween season.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 31/31 Halloween 5 (1989) Meeting the yearly quota with what is...not a good movie.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 30/31 Halloween 4 (1988) Not the greatest movie, but it has the Halloween atmosphere

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 29/31 Fascination (1979) Strange and dreamlike. It took a while to get the gorgeous and interesting parts though

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 28/31 Frankenstein (2025) Had the chance to see it in theaters which was perfect because @realgdt.bsky.social paints beautiful compositions in his films. Oscar Isaac was fantastic as always. Gothic horror and romance, tormented fathers, all moving.

I am once again asking for your support...

Super duper fun fact of the day: alternatives to Amazon-owned Audible exist 🙃

"Oxford commas are a sign you write with ai" I will find such a unique way to rip out your spine that they'll make a movie about it

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 27/31 The Beyond (1981) Watching Fulci really is just stepping into a violent nightmare

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 26/31 Near Dark (1987) For the most part a visually mesmerizing hillbilly vampire love story in a biker western. Still not sure how I feel about that ending.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 25/31 The Lost Boys (1987) The most 80s of 80s movies. I liked Michael's moody and dark story, but I found it unevenly balanced with the humor of Sam's portion. It was good, but could have been great if it leaned more one way or the other.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 24/31 Monster House (2007) It's one of the best Halloween films ever made. Simply must be watched in October with apple cider.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 23/31 Intruder (1989) One of those fun slashers that gets lost in the shuffle. The grocery store is a nice and different setting for everything and it's pretty funny at points.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 22/31 The Creeping Flesh (1973) If I had a nickel for every early 70s horror film starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing about a fossil discovery causing horror I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's funny it's happened twice. Fun movie though.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 21/31 The Queen of Spades (1949) Gothic atmosphere with a visually fun psychological breakdown.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 20/31 Host (2020) It's a yearly tradition at this point. One of my favorites of the decade, such a good jump scare fest. Short and sweet and hits all the points it needs to.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 19/31 REC 2 REC is one of my favorites, but I'd never watched the sequel until now. It seems to be the Aliens to REC's Alien. More action packed and fast paced. Like Alien, I think I prefer the original. But this was still a fun ride

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 18/31 Horror Express (1973) There are few things that feel more perfect for the season than Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing who both chew up the scenery here. Very entertaining cozy horror.

UPDATE: This summer, organizers said more than 5 million people participated in No Kings protests against President Trump. Organizers say they expect an even bigger turnout this time around.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 17/31 Zombie (1979) Some movies you don't watch for the acting or the plot, some you watch for the vibes, the gore, and the score. This is one of those movies.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 16/31 Fear(s) of the Dark (2008) A French anthology of animated horror stories. Like most anthologies, it's highly inconsistent but there were at least 2 segments I really enjoyed.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 15/31 Night of the Living Dead (1968) What can I say that hasn't been said. It's a classic. My hot take is that it's my favorite of the original Romero trilogy.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 14/31 The Old Dark House (1932) Very camp for a movie from the 30s. Extremely entertaining

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 13/31 The Skin I Live In (2011) One of those movies that creeps under your skin and twists at your guts. You only have to watch once because you'll keep thinking about it even when you wish you wouldn't.

🎃 31 Horror Movies in 31 Days 🎃 12/31 Faust (1926) What an undeniable masterpiece. Some movies fail with age, others continue to work, others still are indelibly magnificent. A classic story with moments of striking visuals.
