Do you love a good scary story? Me too! It won’t surprise you that the horror genre is increasing in popularity. What is it about horror that fascinates audiences? I won’t keep you in suspense: It’s the feelings it provokes. Without emotion the monsters couldn’t frighten us for long. And that’s what the reader wants – they want the horror of the story to linger. They want to think about it long after they’re done reading. This class will delve into what makes horror resonate with readers. It will talk about fears, feelings, nightmares, monsters, and terror. And then, it will show you how to craft those elements into a story.
