#HorrorWritersChat Q4

I couldn't get a D&C since my state forbade it. I went to the next state over but I was arrested. No one cared that my baby had died inside me. A baby I had wanted. As far as they were concerned, I aborted and was therefore a murderer. I lay on the metal slab as I bled out.

#HorrorWritersChat Q3

Dehumanizing to me means loss of self; to be belittled and abused to the point that you lose your will to live or you wonder why you have no purpose. Obliterating the self would be the ultimate goal of whatever is doing the dehumanizing. Look at war, capitalism, and bigotry.

#HorrorWritersChat Good question, I would create a system that's advanced technologically, but still chooses to exploit its workers and make it so they hardly have any time to themselves because they have to juggle jobs to make ends meet. Good thing that doesn't happen in real life, right?

#HorrorWritersChat Q2

I'd show how people, esp women, can be dehumanized as they age. You don't need technology to do that, but it happens. People become invisible, looked down upon, stuck full of tubes & needles, finding difficulty in what used to be easy, being in pain, & given little empathy.

Hi, I'm Stephanie Ellis, writer of dark fiction, esp gothic, folk horror, & post-apocalyptic.

The industrial revolution was the most brutal horror. Men, women & children working in mines, mills, factories & forges for a pittance with ever present risk of death. A barbaric world.

Hello, humans of #HorrorWritersChat. My name is Rami Ungar, I write horror and dark fantasy, and I think the future is pretty damn scary on account that it can always get much much worse. Hell, just read any article about AI or attempts to strip workers of their rights. You'll get it!

I'm Amber, a horror and dark fiction writer from central Maine. I write all kinds of horror, most with cults or ghosts. I think both the past and the future can land really well to industrial horror. As for which one I'd rather read, I'd probably go with the past.

Hoi! I'm J. Neira, a cozy horror author & former slushie for Graveside Press.
There are sci-fi elements in many of my stories, so futuristic is kind of where I lean, BUT plot twist is that spiritual horrors like demons scare me more. 😱

Hi, I'm Vivian and I write horror--anything, everything. Both past and future industrial horror is creepy, but I have gotta go future here because, man, robots and AI stuff creeps me out! Also, I'm weirded out by big factories or anything with smoke stacks( I don't know, lol).

Hello! I'm Gree, writer of body, psychological, and religious horror for my Bloodied Rose: Verses of Midnight setting!

For me, it's always industrial horror of the future, because you won't just be mutilated - you COULD be turned into something completely else - a new form.

#HorrorWritersChat Rosè Black is who I am. Horror and horror comedy stories are what I write. To answer the question, definitely the past. Just look up pretty much any factory fires. Sure, now is bad, but back then, worker safety wasn't even really a thing.

This week HD stands for Hate Demagogue's

I write horror mixed with sci-fi, mystery, action and a bit of smut

#HorrorWritersChat Heyo friends! I'm Artemis Quinn, I write dark fantasy and grief horror, and there's usually vampires or ghosts involved somehow.

I think they both can be scary for different reasons, but ultimately future wins out for me.

Hello, my name is Jacob Marsh and I write horror and supernatural thrillers.

And, the industrial horror of the future is scarier. The horrors of the mines and mills can break my body, but they cannot compare to a prison of the mind.

I don't want to be a brain in a jar.

And you can just fight me on that because you know I'm right.

I'm Trish Wilson, Media Director for The Horror Zine. I write quiet horror & horror comedy & I interview well-known horror writers.

When you said "Industrial", I thought Nine Inch Nails. LOL I think industrial horror of the future is scarier because of fear of the unknown.

A6: Halloween! It's my favorite holiday. I get out my Halloween (movie) and Fargo snow globes, dish towels & oven mitts, shower curtain, jack o' lanterns, and lots and lots and lots of candy. I also watch scads of horror movies but I do that year round.

A5: Another vote for Columbus Day.

Also, Steak and BJ Day, which happens to fall on my birthday. It's goofy but annoying. I also share a birthday with four porn stars so I detect a theme... 😄

A4: Ack! Every one I can think of has been adapted to film! I can't think of novels specifically, but the end of "The Gift of the Magi" always made me smile. The scene with the Ghost of Christmas future in "A Christmas Carol" scared the hell out of me when I was a kid.
#WriteStuff Q4 Best *novel* with a Christmas scene?
