#HorrorWritersChat Let's ignore Brent for now as that's spoilers, and focus more on the Glitch. Oh boy, oh boy have they gone through changes. Each Glitch represents decay in some way. Their bodies and minds decay due to their trauma - Appearances of Viral, Mutation, Corruption, Dry & Wet Rot, etc.

#HorrorWritersChat Brent is gong to sacrifice a lot - Some of his ideals, his comfort, his sense of security, his body and soul. It is going to be... Quite significant, but I can't really say til I get those parts written. I have a skeleton, & it will take many years of writing & books to flesh out

#HorrorWritersChat Plans for my book and hopeful series is that Brent slowly grows into a better person, into the kind of hero that he idolizes in his games

#HorrorWritersChat I am Vee, I specialize in Eldritch horror, and my core identity. It's part of what keeps me desperately clinging to the hope of some sort of afterlife/reincarnation

My burps taste like sausage Truly, this is the wurst

A waiter approached a time eating monster as they finished their two meals. "Do you need a moment?" "No thanks, I already had seconds" #puns #wordplay

Evil God: *tries to consume/steal/drain the Weapon of Killing Evil Really Good* WoKERG: *fatally wounds Evil God* Evil God: "How!?" I will never not laugh when this trope pops up

Remember, if you wake up in this world on Jan 1st rather than being isekai'd, it's a skill issue

Did you know that if you scream really, really loudly, it'll make people hate you? THE MORE YOU KNOW!

My #NewYears Resolutions: -Finish my book -Go out and do more things -Read more -Overthrow the old world as it gasps its final, dying breaths, allowing the new to finally rise from its festering undead corpse -Do more art

Sorry for the lack of alt text, didn't notice it this time. Tagged my quote reposts with the alt text, except for Question 4 where I did it as a direct reply to the question

#HorrorWritersChat "What I assumed is part of me, yet is not...?" I ask with trepidation. "Yes," the ferryman responds, "You know what it is." And thus, I walked across the threshold, losing what I thought was truly mine, as I take on a new, beastly form. Yes... Humanity never did quite fit me~

#HorrorWritersChat "What do you mean, I can't bring it?" "You won't need it here," the Ferryman gravels. "It is useless in this realm." "But I've had it all my life." They clutch it to their chest. The writhing, black thing squeals softly. "I know," the Ferryman pities. "I know."

#HorrorWritersChat "Do I jump?" They shook their head. "Nowhere to go, tethered as you are." "But these past things make who I am." "Then you must become someone... or something new." "But I liked me." "'Liked' is in the past. 'Will like' is your future. Embrace change." A nod. A jump.

#horrorwriterschat My ADHD. I have so many projects that are half finished thanks to it >.>

#HorrorWritersChat The weight of the things I've tried to leave in the past, but are all "chains I forged in life." I'm anchored to them, and they're part of me. I can drag them forward, and by fuck I will.

Honestly? Nothing. I'd drag nothing. I'd leave everything I used to be behind, and cross the threshold the completely new person that I am. Instead, I'd purposefully leave things behind, as a careful reminder of what could be avoided, and what could be learnt. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat My entire reading list. Maybe I'll finally have time to finish them all in the afterlife.

#HorrorWritersChat My feet. I'm quite happy here creating nightmares

Well I'm a germaphobe, so whatever I'm dragging, I will make sure to drag it with gloves unless it comes from my own belongings. Maybe a bag of books, no need to wear gloves then heh. #HorrorWritersChat Q3

#HorrorWritersChat I'm here! I'm Blair. I write/draw comics, and as of late, many horror comics. If I were to haunt someone, who I won't name, I'd do my damnedest to pick apart what's left of their soul and sanity, strand by godforsaken strand. I want nothing left but a screaming pile of atoms.

Hi there #HorrorWritersChat! I’m A.C. Bauer, a horror writer dabbling in anything dark and creepy. If I had to haunt somewhere, I’d probably choose my favorite local pizza place. 1) it smells amazing and 2) maybe they’ll offer me free pizza to go away (which I wouldn’t). A ghoul has got to eat!

Oh I love these! I am a professional writer starting out in the horror genre after years of writing nonfiction. I like to write horror that bends our ideas on what is truly terrifying. I have a penchant for gothic conventions and ghost stories. I'd like to haunt as a positive spirit for the living.

#HorrorWritersChat Definitely the past. I have done a ton of growing through my life, and have put a lot of hurt and sadness behind me.

#HorrorWritersChat It will be a loop of judgment. Future me will judge present me, but an even further from the future me will judge future me and present me, and more future mes will come to judge the ones who arrived before them.

Not to get too deep, but I'm going to say I'd be judged favorably for decision I DIDN'T make several months back #horrorwriterschat

The past. I can think of so many moment that would whack me right upside the head. #horrorwriterschat

Definitely the past. I know the exact moment to the littlest of details. And it's a judgement I've made peace with, and will always be ready to face, no matter how harsh the judgement is going to be. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Oh the past 100%. I've had rough issues growing up, responses to trauma, etc. so it's 100% my past coming for me

#HorrorWritersChat I am Vee, I do Eldritch Horror, and I'd haunt my fiancee so she wouldn't be lonely

A food where instead of a patty, there is a precious stone H Hamberger

*shuffles menacingly* ... *shuffles kawaii-ly*

Cool, all my monthly payments on my credit card are coming up, but some jackass stole my card info so I need to hope to get a new card mailed in by Jan 1st Cool. Cool cool Hope they liked me getting their apple account banned for fraud

Feline Navicrab Feline Navicrab Feline Navicrab Prosper and beat that crab (help the nonsense in my brain won't stop)

We Fish You A Merry Christmas We Fish You A Merry Christmas We Fish You A Merry Christmas And A Floppy New Year~!

#HorrorWritersChat ♪~Last Christmas, I gave you my heart. The very next day you gave it away. This year, I rise from the grave, Your life? I shall now raze. Once bitten, now I'm undead, I kept my distance, now I'm after your head. Tell me baby, *do you recognize me?*~♪

#HorrorWritersChat Let's see... Snow and general cold imagery is a must. I'd lean into spirits most likely, as ghosts are the most Christmas-sy horror. And... Fire. Fire is also key - Smell, feel, scent, etc.

The protagonist of my first novel AWOO is a werewolf astronaut. I suppose he'd like a nice telescope? Or a chew toy? Or a telescope chew toy? I dunno. #horrorwriterschat

Cal, one of my two MCs, uses a CD player and huge old-school headphones to listen to music. She's tethered to them. I'd get her an iPod, but I wouldn't DARE take away her cans! #HorrorWritersChat

Fav Protag: Brent Lockwood, a letter from his family. He'd be really appreciative, though hide it if early in his journey Fav Antag(?): The Cat, a hug and promise to be family. She'd appreciate it a ton, her mother was... Nasty, to say the least

Hi. I'm Anna. I write cosmic and eco-horrot. I have lately really enjoyed The Hollow Rooms by Ian Harris, adapted for audio by @hauntedukfiction.bsky.social recently. Set on Christmas Eve and some very nice, cheeky winks at The Shining. #HorrorWritersChat

Hoi! I'm J. Neira, I write mostly in the cozy & bubblegum horror subgenres, often they're that & also YA. Unfortunately I'm drawing a blank when thinking of horror set during this holiday I enjoy. Maybe Krampus? 😭 #HorrorWritersChat

Hellloooooooo. I am Eryn, I write psychological and supernatural horror (but am currently writing a domestic noir novella series). My favourite hands down festive horror story was by our very own @thatwilliambeck.bsky.social and it was bloody brilliant. #HorrorWritersChat

#HorrorWritersChat Howdy all! Michelle here, writer of body horror, comedy horror, and creature features. I actually am not big on the holidays 😅. Retail ruined it for me. Best I can do is a movie rec! Violent Night is such a fun time. Highly recommend.

I'm Rebecca. One of my subgenres is horror Christmas short stories and Christmas thrillers and mysteries. My favorite is A Christmas Story where the rich miser is haunted until he mends his ways. We could use more of that. (favorite movie version: from the Muppets) #horrorwriterschat

#HorrorWritersChat Hi I'm HD Beird HD stands for "Hurgh, Damnit" because screw 2025 I write sci-fi horror mixed with erotica and mystery My choice Christmas horror is Batman Returns Sums up Christmas; folks pretending to be who they aren't and a perverted undercurrent motivating everyone

Hello! I'm TC Parker, I co-run Nefarious Bat Press, and I write all sorts of horror/crime fic - though I'm especially partial to a genre/subgenre mashup I'll never get tired of recommending @sonorataylor.bsky.social's Krampus-themed horrotica short 'Tis Better To Want #HorrorWritersChat

Good day #HorrorWritersChat ! I'm Senka and I write mostly historical folk horror. I can't think of any specific stories I've read that fit the bill but I did recently add @stephellis.bsky.social 's Twiggy Voo to my TBR! www.amazon.com/dp/B0FNFN5YZ...
