What Makes A Horror Story Memorable?
Good question. Everybody would probably have a different opinion. For me it’s setting. My friend Ben Jones wrote a story about a city guy who goes on a camping/fishing trip to an abandoned estate (in the UK). The rotting old mansion is sitting on a hill overlooking the pond where he pitches his tent. The whole story has such a misty, cool, feel to it that he could really write about anything that happens there and it would be successful.
I was lucky enough to be able to do an illustration for the story. I’m going to ask him if he would put it up for my Horror Short Story Of The Week. I sure hope he wants to. I would love to have the story published here.
