There's so much more to horror, we couldn’t stop at Lovecraft.

CONSUME: Watch any of the movies on Joseph’s horror movie recommendation list: <a href="https://twitter.com/PlanetofFinks/status/1311695218505379841?s=20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/PlanetofFinks/status/1311695218505379841?s=20</a>

CREATE: Think about an irrational fear you have of something real. This should not be a fear that is reasonable, but something like: fear of flying, fear of wasps, fear of the dark (these are all just fears Joseph has, I’m sure you have your own). Now instead of thinking about the source of that fear, think about your own feelings. What kinds of fears are activated by this phobia? Loss of control? Fear of the unknown? Fear of pain? Now write a 300-500 word story about that fear, but replace the focus of your fear (wasps, flying, etc.) with a supernatural entity. Could be a ghost or a zombie or a demon or an alien or whatever. But still, even though it’s now a supernatural story, try to recreate the exact feeling of fear your phobia gives you.
