Hey everyone, tis the season for some horror readin'! Everyone who has a horror story, share a link below. You could also add a name of your favourite horror show. I'll start us off, here's a link to my webnovel

A good horror show I've seen before is Scream.

Thanks for the opportunity @abdullah14312!

I have a new short story called That Rotten Place , and it's currently being released in episodes every Sunday, up to the week of Halloween!

It's a haunted house story with elements of slashers and zombie fiction. I think it will fit perfectly with the season of spooks and scares.

That Rotten Place

A good horror show I've seen is the limited series, The Terror.

I read your first chapter and it's pretty spooky, subbed! Can't wait for the next ones. I'll check out the Terror too, seems interesting.

@abdullah14312 after reading the first episode of your story, I subbed! Liking where it's going so far

I'm happy to hear that!

Not a horror but a thriller

The Diary of Viscount Mousehole is a historical Gothic thriller that focused on the relationship between Viscount Mousehole and an obsessive playwright.

My favorite spooky/scary movie is The House which is on Netflix (same with Wendell and Wild which will be released sooner this month)

This is my favorite Halloween comic on Tapas right now. It's such a fun ride with vibrant visuals (and how Sktechfro! plays with the Webcomic format in later episodes is really stink'n good). This whole thing is just candy:

One of my latest arc has been going full horror:

Thrillers are pretty cool, I'll check it out! The House looks pretty creepy. Stop motion horror, don't see that that often, looks interesting. Coraline was my favourite stop motion horror as a kid

Hipiticus 2022-10-04 00:06:49 UTC #10

yeah, you're right, the art looks great! Halloween town, perfect for Halloween reading

Hipiticus 2022-10-04 00:07:14 UTC #11

can't wait to get to that part then!

ScaryTerry 2022-10-04 14:09:54 UTC #12

I really enjoy the fun and frights of Halloween!

Here is the plot and link to my comic.

Scary Terry is an outcast amongst the demons of Hell because he doesn’t take enough souls. This all changes when he finds the book of Dark Contents. Each story in this book offers a different soul…and yours…could be NEXT!

I like your art style, it's very unique, subbed!

SnowMan 2022-10-04 22:45:42 UTC #15

My comic is a gothic horror story that blends Universal monster films like Dracula and The Wolf Man with the more twisted and modern horror of works like Bloodborne and Silent Hill, all packaged into a mostly real-world setting with magic and fantasy elements.

Set in the WW2 era, Dream Reaver: Winter's Lament is the story of two children (Snow Lyte and Sylvie Harker) fighting to survive in a world of nightmares after being kidnapped by a mysterious scientist. They have to uncover the dark secrets of the mad doctor's research if they want to have any chance of escaping his clutches.

Still a pretty new series, but I hope you like what's there so far!

As for a good horror show, I'd be crazy not to recommend Midnight Mass. It's a brilliant mini series that ended up being a powerful and emotional story that the horror themes simply helped carry rather than being the core focus. I feel like a lot of modern horror doesn't allow for many character moments, so you usually don't end up growing attached to the generic teens getting slashed up by a murderer, but Midnight Mass really makes you feel for the characters as human beings with very authentic struggles involving faith, guilt, and belonging.

@abdullah14312 many thanks for the horror promos and happy Halloween season

Working on an action horror comic that follows two brothers who are asymptomatic carriers of a virus that causes them to infect and turn others into monsters.
They unwillingly start an outbreak!
The brothers' condition also grants them unusual powers and a fighting chance to survive all odds. They hope to reunite with their parents but the further they go it seems unlikely!

Action horror videogames like Dead Space, Resident Evil, Devil May Cry and movies like Evil Dead , Stranger Things and The Thing are inspirations.

Long time I haven't seen Scream, my 4 year old nephew wants to go as Ghost Face this year, he never saw the films of course but his uncle (me) is a horror fan so that's fascinating XD

Have too many fave Horrors but my alltime fave is The Ring: USA remake

Thank you for the thread, @abdullah14312!

My comic is called Beneath the Woods and it's a supernatural horror comic inspired by Gravity Falls, Stranger Things and Infinity Train. The main focus of the story are the mystery elements, but down the line, there's going to be lots of demons, spooky monsters, body horror and cosmic horror!

As for horror shows, my favorite is definitely Stranger Things haha. I really enjoyed the first two seasons, and it helped me get more into the horror genre, which I had been very apprehensive about getting into at that point. I also really enjoy Owl House, though that's horror / fantasy rather than just horror.

I like the artwork, subbed!

Hipiticus 2022-10-05 02:08:22 UTC #22

Wow, I really like your use of colours, subbed! Stranger Things is awesome, I still need to watch the last 2 episodes, it's definitely one of my favourites. Have you seen Gravity Falls?
