Horror! Things that keep me awake at night! If it can comp to MEXICAN GOTHIC or Hill House/Bly Manor (or Pan's Labyrinth, my perennial fave), I want to see it! #mswl

I am totally into @Servant on @AppleTV
which is dark & twisted & surprising & modern & deliciously gothic. Writers, I'd love to find a book project that gives me similar feels. #MSWL

Once again, I am opening my heart to horror, my first true love. Please give me psychological and creepy, gothic, thrillery, moody and atmospheric, dark. Think Lovecraft Country and Crimson Peak. Get my heart racing, make me hesitant to turn the page. But no gore. #MSWL

I'd like to see something that's a cross between The Haunting of Brynn Wilder and Mexican Gothic. Women's fiction with a lush, gothic setting that's creepy, but doesn't cross quite as far into horror. #MSWL

I would also like this. Give this to me #mswl

Would love to read something dark and gothic and black and witchy that feels like Prudence Blackwood x Ambrose Spellman meets Only Lovers Left Alive #mswl

Looking for a Gothic story, especially if it’s #ownvoices! With a wrenching romance. I need this in my inbox 👀 #MSWL

In fiction I’d love to see high concept love stories for both commercial and reading group/literary crossover readers. I’m keen to see historical fiction and gothic horror - think Stacey Halls, Laura Purcell and Bridget Collins.

If your book comps to MEXICAN GOTHIC, I want to read it. #mswl

Your magical realism, horror and gothic. I love atmospheric voices and settings. Think Nova Ren Suma, Rory Power, Claire Legrand, Laura Ruby, April Genevieve Tucholke

Excellent thread and my #mswl to a T.

I really really want some dark academia/secret society/cult books. Whether it’s gothic and horror, fantasy or mystery, I NEED this in my life. ‼️‼️

I am continuing to scream into the void for POCs writing/centered in horror, thrillers, mysteries, and suspense. I want the Mexican Gothic, Jordan Peele, Alexis Henderson vibes

We’d also love to see some dual timeline novels involving secrets and objects from the past, or gothic settings with hints of the supernatural – think MEXICAN GOTHIC and THE FAMILIARS.

Growing up Spiritualist (yes, I did!), an Edwardian/Victorian YA or adult with a supernatural or fantasy twist is welcome (we can lean into Gothic, too!) #MSWL

They are a delight, please keep them coming! #mswl

What I would really find special would be a destination horror. For example, the Island of the Dolls in Mexico City would be an amazing setting. Give me more that the typical US spots. The darker, creepier, and more gothic it is...the better.

Time for my annual fall #mswl! Send me all your murdery, gothic, horror, witchy books with bonfires and cozy sweaters and apple cider.
