Theme: Stories that are both funny and scary
What we want:
- That sweet spot of horror comedy that is genuinely funny but also genuinely scary. Can be as goofy, gory, or smutty as you like!
- Work that punches up, not down. (“If the person on the gallows makes a grim joke, that’s gallows humor. If someone in the crowd makes a joke, that’s part of the execution.” – Alexandra Erin, Twitter.)
- Do not self reject! (Unless your story has one of the below unfunny things, in which case feel free to self reject.)
- For cover art submissions, please see toward the bottom of the page.
