"Horror like first Halloween movie or The Babadook (NOT Saw) with chilling atmosphere & great hook!" @kurestinarmada #MSWL

Horror a la SINISTER - a slow burner with a sharp twist. Exposes the darkest recesses of humanity. True horror. Think APT PUPIL. #MSWL

"Calling all horror writers! I want to lose as much sleep as possible this week. Send me your stories!" #MSWL from James #AmWriting #Writing

Creepy middle grade that's more about the emotion than the horror factor--like that you'd see from Neil Gaiman or Holly Black. #mswl
Adorable body horror, like Beetlejuice or Simon Green's Dead Boy (from the Nightside series) #mswl

I want to see a lot more middle grade in my inbox! Specific things: horror, historical with a magical twist, and environmental themes. #MSWL
Literary Agent
A gorgeously written & legitimately scary YA Horror is at the top of my #MSWL. (Genre horror, not paranormal.)

Lastly, who here remembers Christopher Pike? Along with something like ASYLUM, I want to find his brand of horror/thriller in YA. #MSWL

Creepy horror/SFF based on American legends like Lore (podcast) or Supernatural. Witches, spells, things that go bump in the night #mswl

#MSWL. Horror of all kinds. I'm a little wary of the usual tropes - vampires, demons, werewolves, etc. - but always looking for horror

We'd also love to see some voicy YA horror with diverse characters. #MSWL

And all I ever want to read for fun in the summers are mysteries/horror/thrillers, so now would be a great time to query a YA one! #mswl
Literary Agent
#MSWL: I would be interested in a dark fantasy/horror mix. Very atmospheric with literary writing would be best
Literary Agent
Shake it down, shake it down now. Writers, I'm looking for spooky MG and Gothic horror. Humorous too? Bring it. #MSWL
Literary Agent
#MSWL horror (gothic, bloody, any kind!) for any age I rep. I live for Halloween. Scare me!
Literary Agent
#MSWL Creepy, Gothic, Suspenseful Horror over gruesome bloody slasher horror (always).
Literary Agent
Middle grade: Horror, but in a creepy, atmospheric, @kennethoppel THE NEST kind of way. #MSWL
Literary Agent
You should note that incredibly cheesy horror, if done well, is just fine with me. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I want psychological literary horror starring real people in semi-realistic situations. No slasher stories or monsters for me, thanks. #MSWL

#MSWL Also, YA Gothic Horror. I'm basically Catherine Morland.
