Dear Multifandom Horror Author

To my author,

Thank you for offering one of my fandoms! I’m very excited to read whatever you might come up with - I love horror, I love many flavors of horror, and I hope that my requests will inspire you to create something you enjoy writing! This letter is an attempt to offer some prompts and a little more detail of what I like in case you need more details for your starting point, but you are by no means obligated to read or take this letter into consideration. The last thing I want to do is overwhelm you.

If, however, you’re like me and can use the extra push of reading your recipient’s thoughts and feels and prompt offerings to get the creative gears turning, read on! 

(Note: Some of these are much shorter than others - a) I was trying to finish faster since assignments came out early and b) I was getting a little overwhelmed. However please don’t think that requests with only one or two comments are ones I would be any less happy to receive. Everything I’ve included in my requests are relationships/characters I’d be delighted to get for this exchange!)

DNW note -

So I absolutely forgot to put this in my dnws, that’s on me, and I totally won’t hold it against you if you don’t take this into consideration, but while I adore horror, dark fantasy, cosmic/scifi horror, monsters, eldritch things, chthonic beings, etc., I am not really comfortable with anything that focuses on Judeo-Christian theology/demonology, real world Occultism, Satanism, demonic possession, Baphomet, horror inspired by any real world, currently practicing religions, anything like that. If your idea includes any of that, I will still read and leave a positive comment, because I made the mistake with forgetting this in my optional details.

(Thanks to VampirePaladin for some additional help with my DNW note!)
