#MSWL, especially in conjunction with the Bella in the Wych Elm project I’ve wanted for years!!!

That said, I don’t care for gory or gross horror. Psychological horror is the sweet spot for me. Something Gothic, or with ghosts – also good! #MSWL

Related #mswl: Give me a ghost story that breaks my heart while scaring my socks off. Part of why #TheHauntingofHillHouse is deeply terrifying is because we care so much about the Crains.

We've read stories about a medium helping spirits cross over. What if we're in the spirit's POV as he tries to find a medium & convince her to help? I'd love to see something like this in MG or YA. Send query & 1st 5 pages to: querylynnette (at) theseymouragency (dot) com. #MSWL

~~~~Send me your ghooooooost stories~~~~~

Ok now i need a MG with chef ghosts #mswl

#authors, it feels like fall (in the mornings) and I’m craving a great ghost story! Think James Herbert rather than Alice Sebold. If you have one, query me! #mswl

#MSWL Still looking for a creepy MG ghost story. One of my favorite books as a kid was THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS*, by John Bellairs. Would love to find a modern day haunted house MG.

(*The illustration of the headlights still keeps me up at night. Eep!)

- ghosts, demons (but please no angels vs. demons)
- obscure legends (think the Grimm or Supernatural tv shows)
- Swamp monsters
- Harpies/Furies
- Asian inspired like Jorogumo or Nukekubi

I REALLY want a YA or Adult ghost hunting novel. Still hunting for that. #MSWL

#MSWL MG Diverse and LGBTQIA+ voices. Middle grade is really some of the toughest years of my life, and anything that can help them realize it's okay to be different, is helpful. Love ghost stories and stories of crushes and friendship at this age.

If pumpkin spice lattes are back, autumn must be right around the corner, which means I'm jumping on the spooky reads bandwagon. Send me your upmarket, creepy stories: witches, ghosts, other things that go bump in the night. How about a gothic romance, you say? Yes! #mswl

YES, PLEASE. Witch aunties. Ghosts of your disapproving ancestors. Food for dayyyyyssssss. #MSWL

It feels like the start of a new school year. I’m on the lookout for a love story, a time travel novel, something with ghosts. #mswl #amquerying

#MSWL

I would ❤️ an MG mystery/ghost story set in Cassadega, FL. #MSWL

#mswl like crazy

#MSWL: MG/Adult. I'd kill for a good spirit closet novel. Spirit Closets, Haunted Dolls, and the Psychic Ghost Theatre. staceyigraham.blogspot.com/2011/12/spirit…
