Massimo @Rainmaker1973
The town of Whittier, Alaska, is known for having nearly the entire population living in a single apartment building. twitter.com/Rainmaker1973/status/1731327512389595624/photo/1Holy crap! #MSWL this is the perfect setting for a locked room mystery or horror. The single-lane tunnel into town freaks me out.

Horror! I'd love to see more YA horror in my inbox, and I'm also opening up to adult horror!
For adult, I'm particularly interested in horror with a social commentary focus.
I'm also open to non-horror social commentary, like YELLOWFACE.

"Would love to see more psychological horror in my query inbox—especially anything with a remote location (“abandoned” anything is a major selling point for me!), a haunted house (house as character!), and/or a final girl."
