I am particularly on the hunt for horror-comedy, even something a bit campy (Patricia Wants to Cuddle, Bless Your Heart). Same goes for humor in mystery/psychological thrillers (Dial A for Auntie, Finlay Donovan, etc). Would be very open to a mash-up of a funny horror amateur-sleuth too #MSWL

It’s specific, but I think something where the character thinks they’re in a rom-com or telenovela-type story/setting, but it winds up being horror. I’d also love a horror heist #MSWL

I would love to see more historical horror/supernatural. I also like taking something familiar that is fairly benign on the surface and twisting into horror/supernatural: a sorority, academia, sports-culture, wedding, college admissions, real estate horror, etc. #MSWL

Supernatural/horror that gives robust consideration to how humans react to magical elements around them, and of course, twists on familiar tropes. #MSWL
