Our entire reality is constructed based on our faulty perceptions. If you can control the mind, functionally that's no different from controlling all of reality. Our minds are all we have, all we experience, and all we are. They're our most vulnerable piece, because they're us, essentially in our ...Fri, 04 Apr 2025 03:54:52 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=688825https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=688825body horror and cosmic horror is what I mainly write. I'm not all too squeamish so anything with blood or gore is pretty easy to enjoy for me as well.Tue, 03 Dec 2024 17:22:57 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=684976https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=684976building horror … all my pieces involve some kind of endless hallways or spiralling stairs- i love homes and buildings becoming an all trapping enemyThu, 14 Nov 2024 22:11:23 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=556609https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=556609i absolutely LOVE psychological horror and body horror! anything psychological is what i love the most, but a good dash of injury or graphic violence makes it all the better!Wed, 08 Nov 2023 07:43:40 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=524490https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=524490Mainly weird, grotesque monsters (Dark Souls 3 type shit) especially in eerie or liminal atmospheres. I also love doing shocking, disgusting body horror, which goes well with my extreme aversion to plot armor lol. If the readers aren't as traumatized as the characters, I've failed as an author!Sat, 09 Sep 2023 04:45:04 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=521038https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=521038psychological and body horror. I just love it.Sun, 03 Sep 2023 11:02:34 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=503532https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=503532I love writing cosmic horror and sci-fi horror! I've also been writing scripts for some analog horror and digital horror projects, those have been funWed, 02 Aug 2023 06:58:23 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=468440https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=468440Even out of writing—games, film, etc, I’ve always enjoyed psychological horror. Despite its lack of the generic jump-scares and such, the viewer/reader feels the emotion, it’s more scarring to me because we get to know the characters more, and it’s my favorite thing to write. I find it a bit difficult to execute it correctly, though.Sat, 10 Jun 2023 22:19:58 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=357104https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=357104I absolutely adore body horror and suspense heavy horror, the former because of my special interest in anatomy, and the latter because it's very hard to plan but also very rewarding when it's pulled off correctly. I have a soft spot for horror in general but those are my favsFri, 30 Dec 2022 01:47:52 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=253255https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=253255I am still extremely new to this genre but so far most of what I write seems to be based on suspense, fear, the looming sensation of the unknown, and imminent danger...all tied together with some heart-wrenching circumstances. What sub-genre is that?Wed, 18 May 2022 04:39:24 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=244524https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=244524If dystopia or post-apocalypse count as forms of horror, I would say that is it. I’m studying criminal psychology, so exploring the psyche of people in those situations is fascinating to me. I suppose it would be “social horror” or “societal horror” the idea of living in a world with such a broken psyche that it becomes the norm to be, what would be in our eyes, demented and indoctrinated. Also I ...Sun, 24 Apr 2022 13:47:06 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=118051https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=118051I would have to say mine would be psychological horror. I feel that can keep it either very interesting or very boring when done certain ways Thu, 25 Nov 2021 03:34:23 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=60646https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=60646For me, it's either cosmic horror, or psychological horror. Either it reminds you that you are just a tiny speck in an uncaring, chaotic universe, filled with things that will break your mind, or it plays with your head until you question what's real and what's perceived as real. Which is kind of ironic, as I've ended up writing more erotic horror than either of those sub-genres XDTue, 26 Oct 2021 09:56:12 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=57567https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=57567I might be biased, but since my degree is in psychology, I love psychological horrorThu, 14 Oct 2021 19:19:51 +0000
