About

We are looking for original western horror. Look at the title. Scare us or shoot somebody. Better yet, do some of both. We’re not requiring gunplay, but it would help. The preference will be for active stories. Any type of horror is okay, including dark fantasy, although we’re not fans of excessive sex or gore. Have some sense of danger or peril. Unlikely heroes or villains are especially wanted. Above all else, give us a flavor of the Wild West along with whatever supernatural elements you bring to the table. Stories should take place in the western United States between 1850 and 1900. This can include western Canada and northern Mexico.
