Horror Sub-Genre Suggestions.

Before we very shortly announce the theme of the next SLASH-UPS challenges in the coming weeks, and to get people in the mood, I thought I’d quickly put a shout out for anymore horror sub-genre suggestions readers might like to see?

Volume one had such themes as Killer Dolls (in our case a killer Sex Doll), Zombies (both regular and Pumpkin-Headed) and the slasher genre (where SLASH-UPS gets its name from). But is there any horror sub-genres people think we’re overlooking or missing? Anything people would like to see done in a future edition of SLASH-UPS? Maybe a certain monster or monsters you’d like to see included?

We kicked things off last Halloween by tackling the Vampire Genre, which was a lot of fun, and something I’d like to return to at some point. We’re be getting ‘back to nature’ with our next SLASH-UPS challenge soon. But where from there? Werewolves…? Mummies…? Killer Gnomes…?

Also is there any themes from Volume one people might wanna see again? Currently there’s no plans to bring back any characters from the first book. But we’re open to hearing if people would like to see more of something?

Any and all horror sub-genre ideas and monster requests are welcome, and feel free to get super obscure with your suggestions if you’re a horror nerd. Although I don’t know how we’d tackle something like ‘Mumblegore’ or ‘Cyber Horror’. 

If we see the same names coming up again and again, I might try and make an online poll so people can vote on the most popular ones later in the year.
