Class: Twenty Types of Terror: Exploring Horror Subgenres

Halloween special! Take this workshop along with Crimson Peaks and Menacing Mansions: Writing Gothic Horror with Catherine Lundoff for a special combo rate of $99 for both workshops.


Instructor: Cat Rambo

Next class date: Sunday, October 15, 2023, 1-3 PM Pacific time.

Horror comes in a variety of flavors, each with its own special advantages and disadvantages. We will run through the various forms, talking about how to write them, and performing exercises to generate stories in several of the subgenres. Content warning: horror writing may range into all sorts of sensitive areas, including graphic violence and death.


Classes are taught online and require reliable Internet connection, although in the past participants have logged on from coffee shops, cafes, and even an airplane; a webcam is suggested but not required. Classes are recorded; the video is free to participants and available to Patreon supporters

Cost is $99 ($79 for returning students and Patreon supporters, which includes classes/workshops with me in other venues, such as conference or convention workshops and mentoring sessions).

Free scholarships: If you cannot afford a class but really want to take one, apply for a Plunkett Scholarship. Each class has three slots reserved for such students, and the sole criteria is only that you can’t currently afford the class. To apply for a Plunkett, which covers the entire cost,mail me and tell me why you want to take the class in 100 words or less. QUILTBAG and PoC candidates are especially encouraged to apply. The Plunkett Scholarships are named for Edward Plunkett, who wrote as Lord Dunsany. Scholarships are given out on a rolling basis; I suggest getting them in sooner rather than later. You may apply for multiple classes.
