Thoughtful horror is one of the rarest pleasures in life. It is an intricate snowflake on the tongue of the curious few who truly behold it. Though the chill of it fades quickly, its moisture seeps deep into its subject, invading every cell of its body. It is nourishing, but once it's been tasted, desire for it grows and is near impossible to sate. A well-executed horror will leave you disturbed, manipulating you on the deepest levels until you don't know what is real. If you simply want a hack-and-slash, I am not for you. But, if you want to push your readers (or listeners) into a prison of their own imaginings, then by all means. Join me in the dark.
What's the process?
